What this adds
A new top-level
docs-agent/directory (outside Hugo'sdocs/content tree, so it does not affect the built site) documenting the scheduled agent that opens automated docs PRs against this repo:docs-agent/README.md: what the agent is, how and when it runs, which repos it monitors, and where its mutable state livesdocs-agent/playbook-daily-code-changes.md: the complete procedure the agent follows on every run (diff collection, 14 docs-impact change cases, search rules, PR grouping, Copilot review handling, state updates)What this intentionally leaves out
The agent's state files (
backlog.yaml,run-history.yaml,maintenance.md, and others) stay in their separate private repo because the agent rewrites them on every run, and some summarize commits from private repos, which should not be published here.The playbook copy carries a
vale offdirective: it is internal tooling documentation, not user-facing docs content, so Viam prose style rules are not applied to it. No credentials appear in either file; the agent's GitHub token lives only in its scheduled-run environment.Checks run
