| 2 | + |
| 3 | +**Date:** January 8, 2026 |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Overview |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +The FlashPipe documentation has been reorganized to clearly separate user-facing documentation from internal development documentation, and all example files have been consolidated. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +## Changes Made |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +### 1. Created `dev-docs/` Directory |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Moved 8 internal development documentation files to `dev-docs/`: |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +- ✅ `CLI_PORTING_SUMMARY.md` - CLI porting technical details |
| 16 | +- ✅ `ORCHESTRATOR_ENHANCEMENTS.md` - Enhancement implementation details |
| 17 | +- ✅ `PARTNER_DIRECTORY_MIGRATION.md` - Partner Directory technical migration |
| 18 | +- ✅ `TESTING.md` - Testing guide for contributors |
| 19 | +- ✅ `TEST_COVERAGE_SUMMARY.md` - Test coverage reports |

| 21 | +- ✅ `UNIT_TESTING_COMPLETION.md` - Test completion status |
| 22 | +- ✅ `README.md` (new) - Index for dev documentation |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +### 2. Moved User-Facing Documentation to `docs/` |
| 25 | + |

| 27 | +- ✅ Removed duplicate `ORCHESTRATOR_QUICK_START.md` (already exists in docs/) |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +### 3. Consolidated Example Files in `docs/examples/` |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Moved all example YAML files from root to `docs/examples/`: |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +- ✅ `orchestrator-config-example.yml` |
| 34 | +- ✅ `flashpipe-cpars-example.yml` |
| 35 | +- ✅ `flashpipe-cpars.yml` |
| 36 | +- ✅ Removed duplicate `orchestrator-config-example copy.yml` |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +### 4. Created Missing Documentation |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +- ✅ `docs/config-generate.md` - Comprehensive documentation for the `config-generate` command |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +### 5. Updated README.md |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Enhanced the main README with: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +- ✅ Comprehensive "Enhanced Capabilities" section highlighting all new commands: |
| 47 | + - 🎯 Orchestrator Command |
| 48 | + - ⚙️ Config Generation |
| 49 | + - 📁 Partner Directory Management |
| 50 | +- ✅ Reorganized documentation section with clear categories: |
| 51 | + - New Commands Documentation |
| 52 | + - Migration Guides |
| 53 | + - Core FlashPipe Documentation |
| 54 | + - Examples |
| 55 | + - Developer Documentation |
| 56 | +- ✅ Updated all documentation links to reflect new file locations |
| 57 | +- ✅ Added reference to `dev-docs/` for contributors |
| 58 | + |

| 176 | ++ docs/orchestrator-migration.md |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | +- orchestrator-config-example.yml |
| 179 | ++ docs/examples/orchestrator-config-example.yml |
| 180 | + |
| 181 | +- flashpipe-cpars-example.yml |
| 182 | ++ docs/examples/flashpipe-cpars-example.yml |

| 195 | + |
| 196 | +Run these commands to verify the structure: |
| 197 | + |
| 198 | +```bash |
| 199 | +# Top level should only have essential markdown |
| 200 | +ls *.md |
| 201 | +# Expected: README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | +# Top level should have no example YAML files |
| 204 | +ls *.yml |
| 205 | +# Expected: (empty) |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | +# Dev docs should have 8 files |
| 208 | +ls dev-docs/ |
| 209 | +# Expected: 8 markdown files including README.md |
| 210 | + |
| 211 | +# Examples should have 4 YAML files |
| 212 | +ls docs/examples/ |
| 213 | +# Expected: 4 YAML files |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +# Docs should include new config-generate.md |

| 224 | +✅ **1 user migration guide** moved to `docs/` |
| 225 | +✅ **1 new documentation file** created (`config-generate.md`) |
| 226 | +✅ **1 dev-docs index** created |
