Phase 0: Foundation & Cursor Rules Setup - Complete

This commit establishes the foundation for a comprehensive documentation and
project management system for Tendril, following best practices from the
COMPLETE-SYSTEM-REPLICATION-GUIDE.md.

## What Was Created

### 1. Cursor Rules System (.cursorrules)
- Comprehensive rules for AI agent behavior in Cursor IDE
- Phase documentation synchronization rules (auto-update changelog, tasks, decisions)
- KB (Knowledge Base) ingestion and routing rules
- Gitea Actions workflow maintenance rules
- README maintenance rules
- File deletion protection rules
- Customized for Tendril project with Gitea platform

### 2. Directory Structure
- tendril/phases/ - Phase-based project management structure
- kb/ - Knowledge Base system with 8 categories:
  * 01_projects/tendril/ - Project-specific notes
  * 02_systems/ - Infrastructure/tooling
  * 03_research/ - Informal research
  * 04_design/ - Product specs/UX
  * 05_decisions/ - Project-level ADRs
  * 06_glossary/ - Terms/acronyms
  * 07_playbooks/ - How-to guides
  * 08_archive/ - Superseded content
  * Special directories: _guides/, _templates/, _inbox/, _review_queue/, scripts/
- .github/workflows/ - Gitea Actions workflows (compatible with GitHub Actions)
- docs/PROMPTS/ - LLM usage guides

### 3. Agent Guidelines (docs/AGENT-GUIDELINES.md)
- Comprehensive guide for AI agents working on Tendril
- Documents project structure, workflows, and conventions
- Mandatory workflows and critical rules
- Project-specific context (Rust/WASM, Zed extension)
- Links to all documentation systems

### 4. Gitea Documentation (docs/GITEA/)
Complete documentation suite for working with Gitea:
- README.md - Overview and quick reference
- Gitea-Basics.md - Core concepts, features, differences from GitHub
- Gitea-Actions-Guide.md - CI/CD guide with compatibility notes
- Gitea-Workflows.md - Common workflows and best practices
- Gitea-API-Reference.md - API differences and usage
- LLM-Gitea-Guidelines.md - LLM-specific guidelines and terminology

### 5. Phase Updates Documentation (docs/PHASE-UPDATES/)
- COMPLETE-SYSTEM-REPLICATION-GUIDE.md - Complete replication guide
- PHASE-0-GITEA-UPDATES.md - Documents Gitea-specific updates
- README.md - Directory overview and navigation

## Why This Was Done

1. **Establish AI-Friendly Documentation System**
   - Enables consistent AI agent behavior across the project
   - Provides clear guidelines for documentation maintenance
   - Ensures automated synchronization of related documents

2. **Platform-Specific Adaptation (Gitea)**
   - Tendril uses self-hosted Gitea, not GitHub
   - Gitea Actions is compatible with GitHub Actions but needs proper documentation
   - Ensures all references use correct terminology (Gitea vs GitHub)

3. **Foundation for Phase-Based Management**
   - Sets up structure for phase documentation system
   - Prepares for KB system implementation
   - Establishes automation workflows foundation

4. **Knowledge Management**
   - KB system structure ready for capturing project knowledge
   - Templates and guides prepared for future use
   - Index generation system prepared

## How It Benefits the Project

### 1. Automated Documentation Synchronization
- When phase blueprints are modified, related documents (changelog, tasks, decisions)
  are automatically checked and updated
- Reduces manual synchronization errors
- Ensures consistency across all phase documents

### 2. AI Agent Consistency
- Cursor rules ensure all AI interactions follow the same patterns
- Clear guidelines prevent inconsistent documentation
- Automated checks ensure nothing is missed

### 3. Gitea Platform Understanding
- Comprehensive Gitea documentation helps LLMs understand the platform
- Correct terminology prevents confusion (Gitea vs GitHub)
- Workflow compatibility clearly documented

### 4. Scalable Structure
- Phase-based system supports long-term project management
- KB system ready for knowledge capture and organization
- Automation workflows prepared for CI/CD

### 5. Developer Experience
- Clear documentation structure makes onboarding easier
- Automated workflows reduce manual maintenance
- Consistent patterns across all documentation

### 6. Future-Proof Foundation
- Structure supports future phases (1-6)
- KB system ready for knowledge capture
- Automation system ready for workflow implementation

## Technical Details

### Gitea Actions Compatibility
- Gitea Actions uses same YAML format as GitHub Actions
- Same .github/workflows/ directory structure
- Workflows are largely interchangeable
- Documentation notes compatibility throughout

### File Organization
- All documentation organized in docs/ directory
- Phase updates tracked in docs/PHASE-UPDATES/
- Gitea-specific docs in docs/GITEA/
- Agent guidelines in docs/AGENT-GUIDELINES.md

### Cursor Rules Customization
- Project name: Tendril
- Phase directory: tendril/phases/
- KB project: tendril
- Platform: Gitea (self-hosted)

## Next Steps

Phase 0 is complete. Ready for:
- Phase 1: Phase Documentation System setup
- Phase 2: KB System implementation
- Phase 3: Gitea Actions workflows
- Phase 4: LLM Usage Guides
- Phase 5: Documentation migration
- Phase 6: Validation and testing

## Files Added

- .cursorrules (root)
- docs/AGENT-GUIDELINES.md
- docs/GITEA/ (6 files)
- docs/PHASE-UPDATES/ (3 files)
- Directory structures for phases, KB, workflows, and prompts

All files validated with no linter errors.

## Contents
### System Replication
- **[COMPLETE-SYSTEM-REPLICATION-GUIDE.md](./COMPLETE-SYSTEM-REPLICATION-GUIDE.md)** - Comprehensive guide for replicating the PAIRS documentation and automation system in another project. Includes all structures, schemas, templates, rationale, and step-by-step instructions.
### Phase Updates
- **[PHASE-0-GITEA-UPDATES.md](./PHASE-0-GITEA-UPDATES.md)** - Documents updates made to Phase 0 files to reflect Gitea (self-hosted) instead of GitHub. Includes changes to `.cursorrules` and `docs/AGENT-GUIDELINES.md`.
