* Centralize agent instructions in SPEC
Move the full coding-agent contract and repository guidance from `AGENTS.md` into `SPEC.md`, and reduce `AGENTS.md` to a simple pointer to the canonical instructions. Add lightweight `CLAUDE.md`, `GEMINI.md`, and `.github/copilot-instructions.md` files so different assistants consistently bootstrap through the same repo-specific guidance.
* Clarify auto-generated docs path scope in SPEC
Narrowed rule #3 to specify exact auto-generated subdirectories (tweaks/ and features/) rather than the entire code-reference/ directory, and clarified that other hand-written pages (e.g. architecture.mdx) may be edited directly.
* Remove archived docs from gitignore
Drop the old `docs-old` Hugo ignore rules from `.gitignore`, reflecting that the archived docs build artifacts no longer need special handling there.
* Add local env files to docs .gitignore
Add .env.local and .env.*.local patterns to prevent local environment files from being committed.
* Clarify test and git hygiene guidance
Update `SPEC.md` to run Pester in CI mode and tighten repository hygiene instructions around ignored files. The git guidance now points contributors to the actual `.gitignore` files and clarifies that `docs/public/` contains tracked static assets rather than generated output.
* Split agent workflow from project spec
Move repository working instructions into `AGENTS.md` and refocus `SPEC.md` on the stable WinUtil project contract. This separates agent-specific guidance from architecture, build, runtime, docs, testing, and release details so both documents have clearer ownership.
* docs: clarify Pester, ScriptAnalyzer, and source-of-truth rules
Expand AGENTS.md with context on why -SkipPublisherCheck is needed for Pester installation, why winutil.ps1 should be deleted before running ScriptAnalyzer, and clarify that the source-of-truth rule applies only to compiled-script behavior — repository metadata files are edited directly.
* Clarify Pester install command and -SkipPublisherCheck reason
Expands the explanation for why -SkipPublisherCheck is needed (catalog-signed vs Authenticode-signed), clarifies it does not skip download integrity, and adds -Repository PSGallery to pin the trusted source explicitly.
Add the `YouTubeEmbed` component import to `docs/src/content/docs/guides/tweaks.mdx` so the guide can use embedded YouTube content without missing-component build issues.
Update image links in `.github/CONTRIBUTING.md` and `.github/READMEITALIAN.md` from `../docs/...` to `/docs/...` so screenshots resolve correctly when viewed from the `.github` directory context on GitHub.
The homepage uses Starlight's splash template, which has no sidebar and
therefore never gets Starlight's own mobile menu toggle - on narrow
viewports there was no way to reach any nav link at all. Add a small
toggle + panel in the header (only rendered on pages without a sidebar)
exposing the same links as the desktop nav, and group it with the
search icon so mobile actions sit together instead of spread across
the header.
Also add the Store and Forums links to the real sidebar config so
they're reachable on mobile on every other page too (previously only
in the desktop-only top nav), and pull both URLs from a shared
site-links.ts so the sidebar config and header can't drift apart.
* Update Applications tab screenshots
Replace outdated install/uninstall/show-installed screenshots and add
new ones for upgrade-all, clear-selection, selected-apps counter, and
collapse/expand categories.
* Update Applications guide with new screenshots and sections
Point each tab at its refreshed screenshot, reorder tabs to match the
sidebar button order in the app, and document the Upgrade All,
Selected Apps counter, and Collapse/Expand Categories controls.
* Add missing Updates tab screenshot
The image was referenced by the Updates guide but was never checked
into the repo.
* Reorder screenshots to follow their intro paragraph
Move the tab screenshot below the introductory text on the Tweaks and
Updates guide pages, matching the paragraph-then-screenshot layout
used elsewhere in the docs.

* Fix the same arrow-icon alignment issue on the "Read the Docs" button
Same root cause as the hero/final-CTA buttons: the label was plain
markdown text, which MDX wrapped in a <p>, and the icon was missing
the size/nudge applied elsewhere. Match it to the other two buttons.
* Rename known-issues page slug to knownissues
Update the sidebar config, nav dropdown, and every internal link that
pointed at /known-issues/ to match.
* Fix image paths in root-level markdown to match the new docs site
The Hugo docs site (docs/assets/images/...) has been replaced by the
Astro site (docs/src/assets/...); update CONTRIBUTING.md,
READMEITALIAN.md, and README.md to point at the new asset locations.
* Remove unused houston.webp asset
Leftover Starlight default-theme asset with no references anywhere
in the docs site.
* Fix docs site reference in generator docs
Updates `tools/devdocs-generator.md` to describe link generation correctly: links now point to the Astro/Starlight documentation site instead of the old Hugo site.
* Point docs homepage CTAs to guides hub
Updates the docs landing page CTA links to use `/guides/` instead of `/guides/getting-started/` in the hero action and both “Get Started”/“Read the Docs” buttons, routing users to the guides index.
* Add reusable YouTube embeds to docs guides
Introduces a new `YouTubeEmbed.astro` component for responsive 16:9 video embeds using the privacy-enhanced `youtube-nocookie.com` domain. The User Guide index and Tweaks guide now import and use this component instead of plain YouTube links, and the component includes styling that overrides Starlight’s iframe reset so embedded videos render at the correct size.
* Fix YouTube embed iframe height via not-content
Add the `not-content` class to the embed wrapper so Starlight's markdown reset no longer overrides `iframe { height: auto }`. Drop the `@layer starlight.core` wrapper and `!important` overrides that were compensating for the same issue.
* Clarify docs comments across Astro components
Adds and refines inline comments in the docs site config, custom Starlight components, and theme styles to better explain layout structure, navigation dropdown behavior, hero composition, and theme initialization. Also normalizes a few multi-line comments into single-line form for readability without changing functionality.
* Set secondary docs button background color
Update `.wu-btn-secondary` in the docs theme to use `var(--sl-color-gray-6)` instead of a transparent background, improving button visibility and contrast while keeping existing border and hover behavior.
* Move User Guides into docs dropdown
Updates the docs header navigation so the “User Guides” link is grouped under the existing “Documentation” dropdown instead of appearing as a separate top-level nav item. This keeps related documentation links together and simplifies the top navigation.
* Fix hero margin and center trust section
Remove the automatic 1.5rem top margin Starlight adds between the hero and the content column. Also flex-center the trust section so its content is properly aligned.
* Disable edit links in generated dev docs
Update `tools/devdocs-generator.ps1` to include `editUrl: false` in the frontmatter for generated tweak and feature docs pages. This prevents Starlight from showing edit links on these auto-generated pages.
* Move docs update PRs to pre-release flow
The docs Pages workflow is simplified to only build and deploy the docs site: it now triggers only on docs changes, drops extra permissions/default shell settings, and removes the dev-docs generation + auto-PR steps. The pre-release workflow now owns that automation by expanding its PR step to include generated code-reference docs alongside JSON link updates, with updated commit/title/body text and a documentation label.
* Shorten generated docs source note
Simplify the autogenerated DevDocs notice so generated pages only warn against direct edits while still linking back to the source file.
* Improve docs header dropdown behavior
Reworked the header nav dropdown triggers to use native `<details>/<summary>` instead of buttons, then updated menu visibility logic to use `details[open]` for no-JS support on touch and keyboard while preserving hover behavior. Also renamed the “Developer Docs” link to “Code Reference” and tightened related CSS comments.
* Refresh contribution and docs workflow docs
Updated contributor-facing docs to use consistent Markdown admonition blocks, cleaned Mermaid fence formatting, and fixed minor wording/capitalization in contribution steps. Clarified `devdocs-generator` behavior so workflow ownership is explicit: generation now documented as part of `pre-release.yaml` (via docs-update PR), while `docs.yaml` is documented as build/deploy only.
* Fix contributing guide grammar
Correct the "it's" to "its" typo in both contributing guides so the pull request guidance is consistent across the GitHub and docs versions.
