docs: optimize context files for LLM accuracy and token efficiency (#857)
* docs: optimize context files for LLM accuracy and token efficiency

Fix factual errors across all five root context files and optimize
for LLM context window efficiency.

Corrections:
- Web UI: "runs entirely in WASM" -> thin client backed by HTTP API
- Pre-commit hook: "typecheck + tests" -> formatting + typecheck only
- MCP tools: 7 -> 16 (added api_impact, route_map, tool_map,
  shape_check, group_list/query/sync/contracts/status)
- Default serve port: 3741 -> 4747
- E2E tests: "5 tests" -> 7 spec files
- ESLint: "no config" -> eslint.config.mjs exists with TS/React rules
- npm test: "vitest run test/unit" -> "vitest run" (full suite)
- Removed nonexistent test:all script
- ci-quality.yml: added missing format + lint job descriptions
- Pipeline phase deps: added missing structure dep on mro/communities/processes
- Ingestion entry: added missing run-analyze.ts intermediate orchestrator
- Tools Quick Reference: added missing list_repos
- Group tool examples: fixed param name (group -> name)
- Removed stale vite-plugin-wasm gotcha
- Added gitnexus-shared to repository layout tables

New documentation:
- ARCHITECTURE.md: language-agnostic graph feeding (provider pattern,
  unified capture tags, import resolution tiers, chunked parse, MRO)
- ARCHITECTURE.md: full analysis flow (10 stages with progress %)
- ARCHITECTURE.md: storage layout, LadybugDB schema, embeddings, search
- ARCHITECTURE.md: DAG runner internals (Kahn's sort, dep isolation, error handling)

Token optimization:
- Removed filler prose, compressed descriptions into dense tables
- Front-loaded key facts in every section
- Eliminated redundancy between sections
- AGENTS.md: 219 -> 201 lines. ARCHITECTURE.md: 192 -> 298 lines
  (more info in fewer tokens via tables and structure)

* docs: optimize GUARDRAILS.md for LLM context efficiency

Tighten prose without losing information:
- Compressed intro, scope section, and Signs format labels
- Shortened Sign headers (removed "Sign:" prefix)
- Replaced verbose "Instruction/Reason" labels with "Do/Why"
- Removed trailing whitespace and redundant emphasis

# Testing — GitNexus
How we structure tests and which commands to run locally and in CI.
## Packages
| Package | Path | Runner | Notes |
| -------------- | -------------- | -------- | ------------------------------ |
| CLI + MCP core | `gitnexus/` | Vitest | Primary test surface in CI |
| Web UI | `gitnexus-web/`| Vitest | Unit/component tests |
| Web UI E2E | `gitnexus-web/`| Playwright | Run when changing UI flows |
## Commands (local)
From repository root, unless noted:
**`gitnexus` (CLI / library)**
```bash
cd gitnexus
npm install
npm run build
npm test # full suite: vitest run
npm run test:unit # unit only: vitest run test/unit
npm run test:integration # integration suite
npm run test:coverage
npx tsc --noEmit # typecheck (matches CI)
```
**`gitnexus-web`**
```bash
cd gitnexus-web
npm install
npm test # unit tests (vitest)
npx tsc -b --noEmit # typecheck (matches CI)
npm run test:coverage
npm run test:e2e # Playwright (requires gitnexus serve + npm run dev)
```
## Pre-commit hook
A husky pre-commit hook (`.husky/pre-commit`) runs automatically on every `git commit`:
1. **Formatting**`lint-staged` runs prettier on staged files
2. **`gitnexus-web/` files staged** → `tsc -b --noEmit`
3. **`gitnexus/` files staged** → `tsc --noEmit`
Tests do **not** run in the pre-commit hook — they run in CI (`ci-tests.yml`) only.
Skip with `git commit --no-verify` (use sparingly).
## Test categories
- **Unit** — Pure logic, parsers, graph/query helpers; fast; no network.
- **Integration** — Real combinations (filesystem, MCP wiring, larger pipelines) as already organized under `gitnexus/test/integration`.
- **Eval-style / golden sets** — For agent- or classification-style behavior, keep labeled inputs and expected outputs (JSON or table-driven tests) and run them in CI when relevant.
- **E2E (web)** — Critical user paths only; prefer `data-testid` attributes for stable selectors. Tests run against real backend (`gitnexus serve`) and Vite dev server.
## Performance metrics (targets)
Set targets to match team expectations, then tune to this repos CI reality:
| Metric | Target (initial) | Notes |
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| Unit coverage | Align with CI | CI runs Vitest with coverage in `gitnexus` |
| Unit wall time | Fast PR feedback | Use `vitest run test/unit` for tight loop |
| Integration duration| < few minutes | Guard heavy tests with env flags if needed |
## Regression testing
Re-run the full relevant suite when:
- Prompt or agent-behavior documentation changes (if tests encode behavior)
- Model or embedding-related code paths change
- Graph schema, query contracts, or MCP tool shapes change
- Dependencies with parsing or runtime impact upgrade
## CI integration
GitHub Actions (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) orchestrate:
- **`ci-quality.yml`** — prettier format check, eslint lint, `tsc --noEmit` for `gitnexus/`, `tsc -b --noEmit` for `gitnexus-web/`
- **`ci-tests.yml`** — `vitest run` with coverage (ubuntu) + cross-platform (macOS, Windows)
- **`ci-e2e.yml`** — Playwright E2E tests, gated on `gitnexus-web/**` changes
Local checks before pushing:
```bash
cd gitnexus && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test
cd ../gitnexus-web && npx tsc -b --noEmit && npm test
```
Or rely on the pre-commit hook which runs these automatically for staged files.
## User acceptance / beta (optional)
For staged releases or UI betas: deploy to a staging environment, collect structured feedback, watch errors and latency, then iterate before a wider release.
