Same decisions, rationale, rejected alternatives and known issues, said with
less padding: ~5,530 -> ~4,730 words (-15%). Every fact from the first draft is
kept; only the wording, duplicated lead-ins and restated context are cut.
The GitHub Flow description and the type-first enforcement sentence still
appeared in both CONTRIBUTING.md and development/. development/ now carries only
the context and rationale that is not in CONTRIBUTING.md.
development/ had restated the actionables that CONTRIBUTING.md owns: the
branching step list, the script prefix list, the feedback-tier rule of thumb,
the commit convention and the type-driven test loop. Those now live only in
CONTRIBUTING.md; development/ keeps the decision blocks and links to the rule.
development/README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and AGENTS.md state the 'write each fact
once' principle explicitly.
Category files under development/ replace the decision prose that was
scattered through README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md. Each decision is a block with
Decision (YYYY-MM) / Why / Rejected / Known issue; the new library.md records
the public API contract and its limitations. AGENTS.md and backlog.tasks now
point at the new home.
