mara on #3923: "past tense is itself a smell for docs, we dont need any
'used to be somewhere else'" and "any gate we add should not have false
positives". Those are one instruction: the entire false-positive set of a
repo-path checker was prose naming files that are deliberately gone, so
removing the prose is what lets the gate be strict instead of carrying a
skip-list nobody maintains.
Three sites, and only two of them are past tense:
`agent-hierarchy.md` named two removed modules to explain that a code path
is gone. A reader cannot act on where it used to live; they can act on
where cancellation happens now, which is the half the sentence buried.
`term_msg.rs` carried a "Design history" paragraph whose live content was
three rules -- classification is server-side, `level` carries styling, four
named fields are deliberately absent -- wrapped in narration about a
redesign and a pointer to a deleted frontend file. Restated as the rules.
`gotchas.md` is NOT past tense: it correctly names a file in the website
repo. Qualifying it as `hyperhive/website:nix/options.nix` did not work --
the extractor still matches `nix/options.nix` as a substring, so the fix
has to be prose that contains no repo-relative path at all. Naming the
file alone does that and reads better.
Verified against this tree rather than the default checkout: the audit
script takes a directory argument and defaults elsewhere, so its first
(unchanged) DEAD:3 was a true statement about a different branch. On this
one: DEAD 3 -> 0, 141 distinct paths enumerated, and an injected dead path
is still caught.

Pure `nix fmt` output from the commit before this one — no hand edits.
203 files: 52 md, 42 tsx, 32 js, 32 css, 21 ts, 13 html, 8 json, 3 mjs.
Reproduce with `nix develop -c nix fmt` on the parent commit; the result
should be byte-identical to this tree.
None of the 13 `.prettierignore` entries appears here — verified by
intersecting the changed-file list against the ignore file, with a
control proving the intersection finds a match when one exists.
Per mara's go-ahead on hyperhive#3902 ("getting started is good, but
terminal rendering does not go in there i think"):
Moved 21 top-level docs/*.md files into 7 new topic subdirectories
(existing web-ui/, turn-loop/, swarm/, tools/, crates/ untouched):
getting-started/ setup.md
agent-lifecycle/ agent-hierarchy.md, approvals.md, persistence.md
trust-boundary/ boundary.md, security.md
integrations/ forge.md, matrix.md, github.md, knowledge.md
networking/ gateway.md, network.md, snapshot-store.md
scheduler/ jobq.md, coordinator.md, ci.md, observability.md
process/ conventions.md, gotchas.md, pr-review-gate.md
web-ui/ terminal-rendering.md (moved into the EXISTING dir,
per mara's correction to the original getting-started
guess -- it's UI implementation detail, not onboarding)
The physical layout now matches docs/README.md's own topical headers,
which already amounted to this taxonomy -- see the scoping comment on
the issue for the two findings that motivated this (a genuine
duplication between CLAUDE.md's old "Reading paths" list and
docs/README.md's grouped one, since drifted out of sync with each
other; and the flat layout not matching the grouping we already had).
Fixed every cross-reference this moved across the whole repo (~120
files: docs/ internal links at every depth, Rust doc comments, nix
module option docs, crate READMEs) -- verified two ways: a grep sweep
confirming zero remaining references to any old path, and a script
that resolves every markdown link in docs/**/*.md + CLAUDE.md +
README.md against the filesystem and reports anything that doesn't
exist (zero broken links).
Collapsed CLAUDE.md's "Reading paths" section (the duplicate) down to
a pointer at docs/README.md, now the single index. Rewrote
docs/README.md itself to use the new subdirectory paths and added the
one doc it was missing that CLAUDE.md's old copy had (pr-review-gate.md).
Classified all 22 docs/*.md files first via a haiku subagent (mara's
suggestion) on two axes -- proposed grouping and operator-vs-
implementation focus -- before finalizing the taxonomy; spot-checked
the report and found internal inconsistencies (its classification
table disagreed with its own summary section for a few files), so this
taxonomy is my original proposal + the one correction mara gave
directly, not a blind application of the subagent's table. The
operator-focus data it gathered is still useful for a follow-up
content pass (docs skewing 'mixed' rather than pure operator-facing),
not addressed in this PR -- structure only.
nix fmt clean, both pre-push lints clean.
