feat(context): Standardize context system with navigation, frontmatter, and MVI compliance (#209)
* feat: add OAC package refactor context file

- Add comprehensive feature context for OAC package refactor
- Document multi-IDE support architecture
- Define community component registry (shadcn-like)
- Outline flexible configuration system
- Detail context file location flexibility
- Define 7-phase implementation plan
- Include CLI commands reference
- Add community publishing guidelines

* docs: add OAC refactor quick start guide

- Add quick reference for Phase 1 implementation
- Include project structure and file locations
- Document configuration schema and defaults
- Add testing strategy and validation steps
- Include development workflow
- Reference all related resources

* feat: add critical user approval and context resolution systems

CRITICAL FEATURES ADDED:

1. User Approval & YOLO Mode
   - Default: Interactive approval for all file operations
   - Always asks: local vs global install
   - Confirms before overwriting files
   - Shows diffs and file details
   - YOLO mode (--yolo): Skip confirmations, auto-resolve, report at end
   - Conflict strategies: ask, skip, overwrite, backup, yolo
   - Safety: backups, git detection, rollback support, audit log

2. Context Resolution System
   - Layered context resolution (6 priority levels)
   - Project override (.oac/context/) - highest priority
   - Project context (.opencode/context/)
   - IDE context (.cursor/, .claude/)
   - Project docs (docs/)
   - User global (~/.config/oac/context/)
   - OAC official (~/.config/oac/official/) - lowest priority
   - Smart resolution based on agent location (global vs local)
   - preferLocal config option
   - Context merging strategies
   - CLI commands for context management
   - Environment variable overrides
   - Validation and fallback support

3. Enhanced CLI Commands
   - All commands support --yolo, --dry-run, --local, --global
   - Context management: resolve, list, validate, override, sync
   - Detailed help and examples
   - Global flags for all commands

This ensures users maintain full control over their projects while
supporting both local and global workflows with intelligent context
resolution.

* feat: add component creation wizard and IDE feature parity system

NEW FEATURES:

1. Interactive Component Creation
   - oac create (interactive wizard)
   - Create agents, skills, contexts, plugins, commands, tools
   - Template system for scaffolding
   - Auto-generate tests and boilerplate
   - Multi-IDE compatibility selection
   - Size optimization options

2. IDE Feature Parity & Capacity Management (CRITICAL)
   - Feature support matrix for all IDEs
   - OpenCode/Claude Code: Full support (all features)
   - Cursor: Limited (single file, no skills/plugins, 100KB limit)
   - Windsurf: Partial support
   - Adaptive installation based on IDE capabilities
   - Automatic feature filtering and warnings
   - Component merging for single-file IDEs (Cursor)
   - Capacity warnings and optimization
   - IDE-specific profiles

3. Enhanced CLI Commands
   - oac create [type] - Component creation wizard
   - oac templates - List available templates
   - oac compatibility <ide> - Check IDE compatibility
   - oac ides - List supported IDEs with features
   - oac ide info <ide> - Show IDE capabilities
   - oac optimize --for <ide> - Optimize for specific IDE
   - oac validate --ide <ide> - Validate IDE installation

4. Smart Installation
   - Detects IDE capabilities
   - Warns about unsupported features
   - Auto-filters components
   - Merges agents for Cursor
   - Embeds contexts for limited IDEs
   - Monitors file size limits
   - Suggests IDE-specific profiles

This ensures users can easily create components and OAC gracefully
handles different IDE capabilities with clear warnings and automatic
optimization.

* docs: add critical feedback from parallel agent review

CRITICAL FINDINGS:

Security Gaps (BLOCKER):
- No component signing or verification
- No malware/secret scanning
- No permission system
- Action: Add security layer in Phase 1

Missing Features (CRITICAL):
- Discovery (browse, search, trending)
- Lockfile for reproducibility
- Version conflict management
- Interactive onboarding
- Progress indicators
- Auto-detection for local/global

Approaches to Rethink:
- Context merging → Use composition instead
- Always asking local/global → Auto-detect with smart defaults
- Cursor agent merging → Router pattern instead

Repository Structure:
- Recommended: Monorepo with pnpm workspaces
- Packages: core, adapters, registry, security, cli
- Benefits: Shared deps, atomic commits, easier testing

Community Workflow:
- Component submission process
- Automated security scanning
- Manual review for verification
- Moderation system

Updated Priorities:
- v1.0 MVP: Add 6 critical features (discovery, lockfile, security, etc.)
- v1.1: Plugin system, workspace support, marketplace
- v2.0: Enterprise features

Documentation Needs:
- Quick Start (5-minute guide)
- CLI Reference (auto-generated)
- Recipes/Cookbook
- Component Creation Guide
- Migration Guide

Overall: Plan is 80% solid, needs 20% critical additions before Phase 1

* feat: add comprehensive agent customization and preset system

CRITICAL FEATURE: Agent Customization & Personal Presets

Problem:
- Users want to customize agent prompts for their workflow
- Users want to save personal configurations
- Updates shouldn't overwrite customizations
- Need easy way to view and edit agents

Solution: Multi-Layer Customization System

Layer 1: View Agent Configuration
- oac show agent:openagent (view in pager)
- oac edit agent:openagent (open in editor)
- oac config show agent:openagent (config only)
- oac export agent:openagent (export to file)

Layer 2: Create Personal Preset
- oac customize agent:openagent (create preset)
- Copies to ~/.config/oac/presets/agents/
- Links to base agent for updates
- Tracks customizations in metadata

Layer 3: Edit Personal Preset
- oac edit preset:my-openagent (edit in $EDITOR)
- oac customize preset:my-openagent --interactive (wizard)
- Auto-backup on save
- Track modification history

Layer 4: Use Personal Preset
- oac use preset:my-openagent (activate)
- oac use preset:my-openagent --global (set default)
- oac presets list --active (show active)
- Switch between presets and base agents

Layer 5: Update Management (CRITICAL)
- Smart update detection for base agents
- Merge strategies: manual, auto-base, auto-merge, locked
- Conflict resolution with user prompts
- Show diffs before merging
- Auto-backup before updates
- Preserve user customizations by default

Layer 6: Preset Sharing
- oac export preset:my-openagent (export)
- oac import preset ./preset.md (import)
- oac share preset:my-openagent (share with team)
- oac publish preset:my-openagent (publish to community)

Layer 7: In-Place Editing (Advanced)
- oac edit agent:openagent --in-place (risky, warns user)
- Creates backup before editing
- Warns that updates will overwrite
- Recommends preset creation instead

Update Strategies:
- manual: User reviews every update
- auto-base: Auto-update base, keep preset unchanged
- auto-merge: Auto-merge, prompt on conflicts
- locked: Never update base

Configuration:
- Preset metadata (.presets.json)
- Update strategies per preset
- Merge conflict resolution
- Backup management
- Warning preferences

Edge Cases Handled:
- In-place edits before updates
- Multiple updates behind
- Multiple presets for same base
- Preset conflicts with IDE
- Deleted base agent

Best Practices:
- Always create presets (safest)
- Document customizations
- Review updates before merging
- Keep backups
- Use descriptive names

This ensures users can safely customize agents without fear of
losing changes on updates, while still benefiting from base agent
improvements.

5. Create monorepo structure (1 day)

Top Risks:
🔴 Timeline Slip (70% probability, high impact)
🟡 Scope Creep (50% probability, high impact)
🟡 Context Merging Complexity (60% probability, medium impact)

Recommendation: PROCEED WITH MODIFICATIONS
- Complete 6 days of prerequisite work
- Extend timeline to 9 weeks
- Add missing features to phases
- Define acceptance criteria and testing strategy

Status: READY TO IMPLEMENT (with modifications)
Next Steps: Complete prerequisites → Setup monorepo → Start Phase 1

* feat(context): Standardize context system with navigation, frontmatter, and MVI compliance

- Add 77 navigation.md files across all context categories for token-efficient discovery
- Standardize frontmatter format on 198+ context files (HTML comment format, 2026-02-15)
- Compress 3 oversized guide files applying MVI principle (802 lines removed, 63% reduction)
- Add context system analysis and planning artifacts in context-findings/
- Add task management enhancements (stage orchestration, planning subagents)
- Document compression techniques and future optimization recommendations

Context System Improvements:
- All active directories now have navigation.md (200-300 tokens each)
- 100% frontmatter compliance with priority/version/date metadata
- Improved scannability through MVI compression (compact.md, organizing-context.md, creation.md)
- Token efficiency increased for AI agent consumption

Planning & Analysis:
- Context system implementation plan and simplification analysis
- ADR standard proposal and runtime permission architecture
- SQLite context design for future scale (deferred until 500+ files)
