refactor(docs): split docs/ into public/ and internal/
Invert the docs convention so the Mintlify-published site lives under
docs/public/ and internal artifacts (strategy docs, brainstorms, plans,
etc.) sit at docs/ root or docs/internal/. Tools that default to writing
into docs/ now land in the catch-all instead of leaking into the
published tree.

- Move Mintlify content (administration/, agents/, api-reference/,
  changelog/, core-concepts/, examples/, execution/, getting-started/,
  human-tools/, integrations/, languages/, reference/, tutorials/,
  workflows/, images/, logo/, docs.json, favicon.svg, dot-highlight.js)
  into docs/public/.
- Collapse docs-internal/ into docs/internal/.
- Update Rust path references (fabro-api/build.rs, fabro-server,
  fabro-dev), TypeScript generator arg, CI path filters, clippy.toml
  reasons, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, and README.md image refs.

Mintlify dashboard project root must be updated to docs/public/ in a
follow-up. .mintignore move/trim and .claude/skills/ updates land in a
separate commit.

<Note>
Fabro has two modes:
- **Standalone mode** — Run workflows directly from the CLI. This is what the quick start covers below.
- **Server mode** — An API server with a web UI for launching and managing workflow runs at scale. See [Server Mode](/administration/deploy-server) for details.
</Note>
## Supported platforms
| OS | Architecture | Supported |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Linux | x86_64 | Yes |
| Linux | arm64 (aarch64) | Yes |
| macOS | arm64 (Apple Silicon) | Yes |
| macOS | x86_64 (Intel) | No |
| Windows | any | No |
<Note>
On Intel Macs, run Fabro in a Linux x86_64 container or VM. Native Windows isn't supported; use WSL2 with a supported Linux architecture.

<Tip>
Release binaries and the multi-arch Docker image ship with [SLSA Build Provenance](/reference/verifying-releases) attestations you can verify with `gh attestation verify`.
</Tip>
<Note>
Setting up server mode instead? Run `fabro server start` to finish setup in a browser-based wizard. See [Running the Fabro Server](/administration/deploy-server) for the full flow.
</Note>
## Initialize your project
```bash
cd my-repo/
fabro repo init
```
This creates `.fabro/project.toml` and a starter workflow under `.fabro/workflows/hello/`.
## Configure API keys
Add at least one LLM provider key:
```bash
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
GEMINI_API_KEY=AI...
```
<Note>
You only need one provider key to get started. Add more to enable multi-model workflows.
</Note>
## Run your first workflow
```bash
fabro run hello
```
