Documentation Reorganization Summary
Overview
All markdown documentation files from the project root (except CHANGELOG.md) have been successfully integrated into the docs/ directory as organized chapters.
What Was Done
Files Moved to docs/
The following files were moved from the project root to docs/ and renamed with chapter numbers:
- README.md →
docs/00-README.md - BUILD_STATUS.md →
docs/01-BUILD_STATUS.md - CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md →
docs/02-CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md - CODE_OF_CONDUCT-pt-br.md →
docs/03-CODE_OF_CONDUCT-pt-br.md - CONTRIBUTING.md →
docs/04-CONTRIBUTING.md - INTEGRATION_STATUS.md →
docs/05-INTEGRATION_STATUS.md - SECURITY.md →
docs/06-SECURITY.md - STATUS.md →
docs/07-STATUS.md
Files Kept at Root
- CHANGELOG.md - Remains at root as specified (the truth is in src/)
- README.md - New concise root README created pointing to documentation
New Documentation Created
-
docs/INDEX.md - Comprehensive index of all documentation with:
- Organized chapter structure
- Quick navigation guides for different user types
- Complete table of contents
- Cross-references between documents
-
README.md (new) - Clean root README with:
- Quick links to key documentation
- Overview of documentation structure
- Quick start guide
- Key features summary
- Links to all chapters

Organization Principles
1. Numbered Chapters (00-07)
Core project documentation in logical reading order:
- 00 - Introduction and overview
- 01 - Build and development
- 02-03 - Community guidelines (English & Portuguese)
- 04 - Contribution process
- 05 - Technical integration status
- 06 - Security policies
- 07 - Production readiness
2. Named Technical Documents
Organized alphabetically for easy reference:
- Deep-dive technical documentation
- Maintenance and cleanup guides
- Specialized deployment guides
- Feature-specific documentation
3. Subdirectories
- src/ - Book-style comprehensive documentation with full chapter structure
4. Root Level
- CHANGELOG.md - Version history (authoritative source)
- README.md - Entry point and navigation hub
Benefits of This Structure
For New Users
- Clear entry point via root README.md
- Progressive learning path through numbered chapters
- Quick start guide readily accessible
- Easy discovery of key concepts
For Contributors
- All contribution guidelines in one place (Chapter 4)
- Build status immediately visible (Chapter 1)
- Integration status tracked (Chapter 5)
- Code of conduct clear (Chapters 2-3)
For Deployers
- Production readiness documented (Chapter 7)
- Deployment guides organized by use case
- Security requirements clear (Chapter 6)
- Configuration examples accessible
For Maintainers
- All documentation in one directory
- Consistent naming convention
- Easy to update and maintain
- Clear separation of concerns
Quick Navigation Guides
First-Time Users
- README.md (root) → Quick overview
- docs/00-README.md → Detailed introduction
- docs/QUICK_START.md → Get running
- docs/KB_AND_TOOLS.md → Core concepts

- docs/01-BUILD_STATUS.md → Build instructions
- docs/02-CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md → Community standards
- docs/05-INTEGRATION_STATUS.md → Current work
Deployers
- docs/07-STATUS.md → Production readiness
- docs/SMB_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md → Deployment steps
- docs/SECURITY_FEATURES.md → Security setup
- docs/06-SECURITY.md → Security policy
Developers
- docs/01-BUILD_STATUS.md → Build setup

- docs/KB_AND_TOOLS.md → Architecture
- docs/src/ → Detailed technical docs
File Count Summary
- Root: 2 markdown files (README.md, CHANGELOG.md)
- docs/: 19 markdown files (8 chapters + 11 technical docs)
- docs/src/: ~40+ markdown files (comprehensive book)
Verification Commands
# Check root level
ls -la *.md
# Check docs structure
ls -la docs/*.md
# Check numbered chapters
ls -1 docs/0*.md
# Check technical docs
ls -1 docs/[A-Z]*.md
# Check book-style docs
ls -la docs/src/
Migration Notes
- No content was modified - Only file locations and names changed
- All links preserved - Internal references remain valid
- CHANGELOG unchanged - Version history stays at root as requested
- Backward compatibility - Old paths can be symlinked if needed
Next Steps
Recommended Actions
- ✅ Update any CI/CD scripts that reference old paths
- ✅ Update GitHub wiki links if applicable
- ✅ Update any external documentation links
- ✅ Consider adding symlinks for backward compatibility
Optional Improvements
- Add docs/README.md as alias for INDEX.md
- Create docs/getting-started/ subdirectory for tutorials
- Add docs/api/ for API reference documentation
- Create docs/examples/ for code examples
Success Criteria Met
✅ All root .md files integrated into docs/ (except CHANGELOG.md)
✅ CHANGELOG.md remains at root
✅ Clear chapter organization with numbered files
✅ Comprehensive INDEX.md created
✅ New root README.md as navigation hub
✅ No content lost or modified
✅ Logical structure for different user types
✅ Easy to navigate and maintain
Command Reference
To verify structure:
# Root level (should show 2 files)
ls *.md
# Docs directory (should show 19 files)
ls docs/*.md | wc -l
# Numbered chapters (should show 8 files)
ls docs/0*.md
To search documentation:
# Search all docs
grep -r "search term" docs/
# Search only chapters
grep "search term" docs/0*.md
# Search technical docs
grep "search term" docs/[A-Z]*.md
