Documentation Freshness Audit

This audit found the following inconsistency between code and documentation:

Findings

Area Issue File(s)
Front Matter Fields inlined-imports field is implemented and documented in docs/front-matter.md + docs/runtime-imports.md but absent from the README's reference table and the workflow creation prompt README.md, prompts/create-ado-agentic-workflow.md

Details

The inlined-imports front-matter field (src/compile/types.rs:711) controls whether \{\\{\#runtime-import ...}} markers in the agent body are resolved at compile time (self-contained YAML) or at pipeline runtime (default, edit-without-recompile). It is fully implemented and documented in docs/front-matter.md and docs/runtime-imports.md, but was missing from:

  1. README.md — The "Front Matter Fields" table lists all supported fields, but inlined-imports was not included.
  2. prompts/create-ado-agentic-workflow.md — The step-by-step authoring guide covers Steps 1–15 but never mentions inlined-imports, meaning AI agents using this prompt would never know to suggest it even when appropriate (e.g., for air-gapped or self-contained pipeline deployments).

Applied Fixes

  • Added inlined-imports row to the README "Front Matter Fields" table with its default value (false) and a link to docs/runtime-imports.md
  • Added "Step 16 — Inlined Imports" to prompts/create-ado-agentic-workflow.md explaining when to use it and the compile-time trade-off

…prompt

The `inlined-imports` front-matter field has been implemented and
documented in docs/front-matter.md and docs/runtime-imports.md, but
was absent from both the README front-matter fields reference table
and the create-ado-agentic-workflow.md prompt guide.

- Add `inlined-imports` row to the README "Front Matter Fields" table
- Add Step 16 to the workflow creation prompt explaining when and how
  to use the field (default false, trade-off with compile-time resolution)
