Opus Markdown + Sonnet Markdown audit found that the 12 root kei-*.md files
each carried a "GENERATED by _assembler from _manifests/kei-<slug>.toml — DO
NOT EDIT" header pointing to manifests that DO NOT EXIST. The actual manifests
live at _manifests/<slug>.toml (no kei- prefix) and regenerate to
_generated/<slug>.md. Content had drifted (kei-architect.md had a "MODE — First
Principles" section absent from _generated/architect.md).
This was active confusion for any editor: the "DO NOT EDIT" header lied (no
manifest existed for regen), and editing the manifest at the implied path was
impossible.
Replaced each root kei-<slug>.md with a 14-LOC alias stub that:
- Tells readers the actual generated file lives at _generated/<slug>.md
- Tells readers the manifest source is _manifests/<slug>.toml (no kei- prefix)
- States explicitly: edit the manifest, never these aliases
- Preserves the root-level discoverability marker
Also fixes Group G's commit 036bc6a follow-on damage: that commit appended
STATUS-TRUTH MARKER blocks to 5 of these root kei-*.md files thinking they
were generated outputs of real manifests. Those edits are now superseded by
the alias-stub form.
Net delta: +108 / -3787 (12 files shrink from full agent prompts to 14-LOC
stubs). Real prompts remain in _generated/ where they were generated from
the actual _manifests/<slug>.toml files.
Follow-up: add CI lint that root kei-*.md must match alias template byte-for-
byte. Prevents future drift back to the parallel-SSoT state.
