docs: AI-optimized docs restructure (Phases 1–8) (#61)
* docs(dialog-pattern): add generic entity-dialog spec

Introduceert docs/patterns/dialog.md als bron-of-truth voor elke
create/edit/detail-dialog in Scrum4Me, ongeacht het achterliggende
dataobject. Bevat 14 secties: uitgangspunten, stack, component-
architectuur, layout, validatie, drielaagse demo-policy, submission,
dialog-gedrag, theming, footer, triggers/URL-state, per-entiteit
profile-template, out-of-scope, en een verificatie-checklist.

Registreert het patroon in CLAUDE.md "Implementatiepatronen"-tabel
zodat Claude (en mensen) de spec verplicht raadplegen voor elke
nieuwe dialog.

* docs(dialog-pattern): convert task spec + add pbi/story entity-profiles

Reduceert docs/scrum4me-task-dialog.md van 507 naar ~140 regels: alle
gedeelde regels verhuisd naar docs/patterns/dialog.md, dit document
bevat nu alleen Task-specifieke velden, URL-pattern, status-veld,
server actions, triggers en bewuste out-of-scope-keuzes.

Voegt twee nieuwe entity-profielen toe voor bestaande dialogen:
- docs/scrum4me-pbi-dialog.md (PbiDialog: state-based, code+title-rij,
  PbiStatusSelect, geen delete in v1)
- docs/scrum4me-story-dialog.md (StoryDialog: state-based, header met
  status/priority badges, inline activity-log, demo-readonly-fallback,
  inline-delete-confirm i.p.v. AlertDialog)

Beide profielen documenteren expliciet de "Bekende gaps t.o.v.
generieke spec" zodat opvolgende PR's de afwijkingen kunnen
rechtzetten of bewust kunnen accorderen.

* Added pdevelopment docs

* docs(plans): add docs-restructure plan for AI-optimized lookup

Audit of existing 39 doc files (~10.700 lines) and a phased restructure
proposal aimed at minimising the tokens an AI agent has to read to find
the right reference. Captures resolved decisions on language (English),
ADR template (Nygard default with MADR escape-hatch), index generator
(node script), and folder taxonomy. Proposal status — fase 1 to follow.

* docs(adr): add ADR scaffolding (templates, README, meta-ADR)

Set up docs/adr/ as the canonical home for architecture decisions:

- templates/nygard.md — default four-section format (Status, Context,
  Decision, Consequences) for one-way-door decisions.
- templates/madr.md — MADR v4 with YAML front-matter and explicit
  Considered Options for decisions where rejected alternatives matter.
- README.md — naming convention (NNNN-kebab-case), template-selection
  guidance (Nygard default; MADR for auth, queue mechanics, agent
  integration), status lifecycle, and ADR roster.
- 0000-record-architecture-decisions.md — meta-ADR establishing the
  practice itself, in Nygard format.

Backfilling existing implicit decisions (base-ui-over-radix, float
sort_order, demo-user three-layer policy, etc.) is fase 6 of the
docs-restructure plan.

* feat(docs): add docs index generator + initial INDEX.md

scripts/generate-docs-index.mjs walks docs/**/*.md, parses YAML
front-matter (or first H1 fallback) and a Nygard-style ## Status
section, then writes docs/INDEX.md with grouped tables for ADRs,
Specs, Plans (with archive subsection), Patterns, and Other.

Pure Node 20 (no external deps); idempotent — running it twice
produces byte-identical output. Excludes adr/templates/, the ADR
README, INDEX.md itself, and any *_*.md sidecar file.

Wire-up:
- package.json: docs:index → node scripts/generate-docs-index.mjs

Initial run indexed 35 docs across the existing structure; the
generated INDEX.md is committed so the table is reviewable in the
PR before hooking generation into a pre-commit step.

* chore: ignore Obsidian vault and personal sidecar files

Add .obsidian/ (Obsidian vault config) and _*.md (personal sidecar
notes) to .gitignore so the docs/ tree can serve as canonical source
of truth while still being usable as an Obsidian vault for personal
authoring. The docs index generator already excludes the same _*.md
pattern from INDEX.md.

* docs(plans): add PBI bulk-create spec for docs-restructure

Machine-parseable spec for an executor that calls the scrum4me MCP
(create_pbi → create_story → create_task) to seed the docs-restructure
work into the DB.

- Section 1 (Context) is the PBI description; serves as task-context
  via mcp__scrum4me__get_claude_context.
- Section 2 lists the 6 resolved decisions (English, MD3+styling
  merged, solo-paneel merged, .Plans archived, Nygard ADR default,
  node index script).
- Section 3 records what already shipped on this branch so the
  executor doesn't duplicate the ADR scaffolding or index generator.
- Section 4 carries the structured YAML graph: 1 PBI, 8 stories
  (one per phase), 39 tasks. product_id is REPLACE_ME — fill before
  running.
- YAML validated with PyYAML; field schema sanity-checked.

ADR-0000: Record architecture decisions

Status

accepted

Context

Scrum4Me makes several non-obvious architectural choices that aren't visible from the code alone — for example, why we use @base-ui/react rather than Radix, why drag-and-drop ordering uses float sort_order instead of integer positions, why authentication runs on iron-session rather than NextAuth, and why the demo-user policy is enforced in three layers. These decisions are scattered across CLAUDE.md, individual pattern docs, plan files, and commit messages. New contributors and AI agents working on the codebase have no fast path to the why, which leads to one of two failure modes: they either re-litigate decisions that were already settled, or they make changes that violate constraints they didn't know about.

We want a single, predictable place to record significant architectural choices, with enough context that a reader six months from now can decide whether the decision still holds.

Decision

We adopt Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) as the canonical format for documenting significant architectural choices in this codebase. ADRs live in docs/adr/, are numbered sequentially with a four-digit prefix (0001-...md, 0002-...md, …), and follow one of two templates:

  • Nygard (templates/nygard.md) — default, for one-way-door decisions with a clear motivating context.
  • MADR v4 (templates/madr.md) — for decisions where weighing multiple alternatives is part of the value the record provides (auth, queue mechanics, agent integration).

The full conventions — file naming, status lifecycle, template selection guidance — are documented in README.md.

ADRs are immutable once accepted: course corrections create a new ADR that supersedes the old one rather than editing the original.

Consequences

Positive

  • Architectural choices have a single, predictable home that an AI agent or new contributor can find with one ls docs/adr/.
  • The "why" of each decision is captured at the moment it's made, when the context is fresh, rather than reconstructed later from commits.
  • Superseded decisions remain readable, so future contributors can see the history of a choice without git archaeology.
  • The format scales: writing an ADR is a 15-minute activity for the default Nygard template, low enough overhead to be worth doing every time.

Negative

  • Adds a small ritual to every significant architectural decision — easy to skip when moving fast, leading to a stale or incomplete record if not enforced through review.
  • Backfilling existing decisions requires writing 58 retrospective ADRs for choices that were never recorded (planned in fase 6 of ../plans/docs-restructure-ai-lookup.md).
  • Two templates means a per-decision choice about which to use. Mitigated by making Nygard the explicit default in README.md.
