# Documentation rules
|
||||
|
||||
Active documentation must describe verified current behavior or a clearly labelled future decision.
|
||||
Prefer one authoritative document plus short topic guides that link to it; do not copy long architecture
|
||||
sections across files. Update behavior docs in the same change as code.
|
||||
Current documentation describes verified repository behavior or clearly labels future work. Use one authoritative guide per subject and link to it rather than copying long sections.
|
||||
|
||||
Use `docs/architecture/current.md` for the verified system, `docs/implementation-roadmap.md` for delivery
|
||||
status, `docs/MASTER_IMPLEMENTATION_GUIDE.md` for product constraints, and `BLOCKERS.md` for external
|
||||
decisions or credentials. `docs/_archive` is historical evidence and must not be treated as current work.
|
||||
- `docs/README.md` is the entry point.
|
||||
- `docs/architecture/overview.md` is the current system summary.
|
||||
- `docs/configuration/environment-variables.md` is the environment-variable index.
|
||||
- `docs/roadmap/` contains open work, debt, and known issues.
|
||||
- `BLOCKERS.md` contains operator/external dependencies referenced by repository instructions.
|
||||
- `docs/_archive/` is historical evidence and is not authoritative.
|
||||
|
||||
Update behavior documentation in the same change as code. Do not put secrets, private user data, or temporary AI/planning transcripts in active documentation.
