Danijel Martinek bae4b66fa4 refactor(work): drop date prefixes + move _state.json into _system/
Convention shift: epic folders + PRD filenames + frontmatter id
fields are now bare slugs. The created: timestamp (Phase 2) carries
the date; folder names don't repeat it. A future <task-id>-<slug>
shape (e.g. ClickUp) lands cleanly when that integration ships.

Renames (git mv preserves history):
- docs/work/2026-05-13-binder-wrap-helper/
    -> docs/work/binder-wrap-helper/
- docs/work/2026-05-14-library-evaluation-policy/
    -> docs/work/library-evaluation-policy/
- docs/work/2026-05-14-ci-security-and-supply-chain/
    -> docs/work/ci-security-and-supply-chain/
- docs/work/prds/2026-05-13-binder-wrap-helper.prd.md
    -> docs/work/prds/binder-wrap-helper.prd.md
- docs/work/prds/2026-05-13-coverage-architecture.prd.md
    -> docs/work/prds/coverage-architecture.prd.md
- docs/work/prds/2026-05-14-library-evaluation-policy.prd.md
    -> docs/work/prds/library-evaluation-policy.prd.md
- docs/work/prds/2026-05-14-ci-security-and-supply-chain.prd.md
    -> docs/work/prds/ci-security-and-supply-chain.prd.md

Frontmatter updates inside the renamed files: epic id, epic prd,
story epic, PRD id, PRD builds-on all drop date prefixes.

System folder + state file move:
- New docs/work/_system/ holds framework-managed state.
- docs/work/_state.json -> docs/work/_system/_state.json.
- state-builder.mjs adds _system to SKIP_FOLDERS.
- cli.mjs + state-sync-guard.mjs + .husky/pre-commit point at the
  new path.

template-reset-v1 epic deleted entirely (one-off cleanup epic from
the pre-date-convention era; status was already done).

Generator-template updates (so new artifacts ship in the right
shape):
- .sandcastle/decomposer.prompt.md emits bare-slug folder names +
  ISO created: timestamp.
- .claude/skills/to-prd/SKILL.md template uses bare-slug filename +
  bare-slug id field + ISO created: timestamp.

Doc reference updates: glossary, runbook, agent-first-workflow-
and-conformance, reviewer prompt, ADR-020, ADR-022, ADR-023 all
point at the new paths/slugs.

docs/work — the local task system

Filesystem-backed Epic/Story/Task hierarchy used by AI agents and humans alike. See docs/architecture/agent-first-workflow-and-conformance.md for the full design. Until the work-system-v1 epic ships orchestration tooling, this folder is human-driven — agents read the files for context, humans flip checkboxes.

Layout

  • prds/<date>-<slug>.prd.md — source PRDs
  • <epic-slug>/_epic.md — one folder per epic
  • <epic-slug>/<story-slug>/_story.md — one folder per story
  • <epic-slug>/<story-slug>/<task-slug>.task.md — one file per task
  • _templates/ — copy-paste templates (added in work-system-v1)
  • _state.json — derived index (added in work-system-v1)

PRD lifecycle

PRD status frontmatter field: draft → in-review → approved → shipped.

  • draft → in-review — author flips when ready for review (manual)
  • in-review → approved — human reviewer flips on acceptance (manual)
  • approved → shipped — auto-flipped by pnpm work prd-ship <prd-id> when the seed epic finishes. The state-builder surfaces this signal under _state.jsonneeds_prd_ship[] so the orchestrator (or a reviewer running the sandcastle workflow) can act on it.

The decomposer refuses to run on draft PRDs. Once approved, the seed epic is generated; once the epic completes, the PRD is automatically flipped to shipped along with its commit list.
