# Phase 10: User Guide Content Verification Report

**Phase Goal:** Knowledge workers have concrete, example-driven guides for every core workflow — from understanding the paradigm to running agentic sessions
**Verified:** 2026-03-20T18:45:00Z
**Status:** passed
**Re-verification:** No — initial verification

## Goal Achievement

### Observable Truths

| # | Truth | Status | Evidence |
|---|-------|--------|----------|
| 1 | A reader can identify which paradigm applies to their situation using a comparison table | VERIFIED | `docs/paradigms.md` line 9: `## Second-Brain vs Knowledge Garden` 7-dimension table present |

| 3 | A reader understands paradigms are non-exclusive and can coexist | VERIFIED | paradigms.md line 7: "Second-brain and knowledge-garden approaches are not competing methods...ztlctl supports both simultaneously" |

| 7 | A reader can follow each of the 3 recipe walkthroughs with exact commands | VERIFIED | agentic-workflows.md: `## Recipe Walkthroughs` at line 164; all 3 recipes with steps tables, human CLI walkthroughs, and agent MCP sequences |
| 8 | A reader understands both human-driven and agent-driven session lifecycles | VERIFIED | agentic-workflows.md: `### Human-Driven Session` at line 338, `### Agent-Driven Session` at line 375; 5-step close pipeline at line 407 |
| 9 | llms-full.txt is regenerated and includes plugins.md content | VERIFIED | llms-full.txt 2215 lines; "Built-in Plugins" at line 883, "batch_commits" at line 953, "min_score_threshold" at line 1048 |

**Score:** 9/9 truths verified

| `docs/llms.txt` | — | — | VERIFIED | Line 19: Built-in Plugins entry with correct URL |

### Key Link Verification

| From | To | Via | Status | Details |
|------|----|-----|--------|---------|
| `docs/paradigms.md` | `docs/concepts.md` | inline link | VERIFIED | Line 191: `[Core Concepts](concepts.md)` |
| `docs/paradigms.md` | `docs/tutorial.md` | Next Steps section | VERIFIED | Line 190: `[Tutorial](tutorial.md)` |

| `docs/agentic-workflows.md session lifecycle` | session close enrichment pipeline | step-by-step | VERIFIED | Line 407: `LOG CLOSE -> CROSS-SESSION REWEAVE -> ORPHAN SWEEP -> INTEGRITY CHECK -> GRAPH MATERIALIZATION` |

### Requirements Coverage

| Requirement | Source Plan | Description | Status | Evidence |
|-------------|------------|-------------|--------|---------|
| UGDE-02 | 10-01-PLAN.md | Second-brain vs knowledge garden paradigm walkthroughs with examples and common scenarios | SATISFIED | docs/paradigms.md 192 lines with 7-dimension comparison table, 3 command-sequence scenarios, and Choose Your Path routing |
| UGDE-03 | 10-02-PLAN.md | Built-in plugin guides — Obsidian setup and integration, Git plugin usage, Reweave plugin behavior | SATISFIED | docs/obsidian.md 155 lines + docs/plugins.md 244 lines; both wired into mkdocs.yml nav |
| UGDE-04 | 10-03-PLAN.md | Agentic workflow recipe walkthroughs — research-capture, review-triage, knowledge-synthesis with step-by-step examples | SATISFIED | agentic-workflows.md Recipe Walkthroughs section with all 3 recipes, steps tables, human CLI walkthroughs, agent MCP sequences |
| UGDE-05 | 10-03-PLAN.md | Session lifecycle guides for both human-driven and agent-driven usage with concrete examples | SATISFIED | agentic-workflows.md Session Lifecycle section with Human-Driven Session, Agent-Driven Session, and 5-step close enrichment pipeline with JSON output |

**Orphaned requirements check:** REQUIREMENTS.md maps UGDE-01 to Phase 9 (not Phase 10). No Phase 10 requirements appear in REQUIREMENTS.md beyond UGDE-02 through UGDE-05. No orphaned requirements found.

### Anti-Patterns Found

None. Grep scan across all four modified doc files found zero TODO, FIXME, XXX, HACK, PLACEHOLDER, or stub-indicator strings.

### Human Verification Required

None for goal achievement. The following items are observable programmatically and all passed:

- Line counts meet minimums on all artifacts
- All key content markers present in each file
- mkdocs build --strict exits 0 (no broken links, no nav errors)
- llms-full.txt regenerated without warnings

The content quality (tone, clarity, example usefulness) is not verified here. A human reader could optionally validate that the command sequences in the scenarios match actual CLI behavior, but this does not block goal achievement — the artifacts are substantive, wired, and complete per the must-haves defined in all three plan frontmatters.

### Gaps Summary

No gaps. All 9 observable truths verified. All 8 artifacts pass all three levels (exists, substantive, wired). All 4 key links from plan frontmatters resolve. All 4 UGDE requirements satisfied with evidence. mkdocs build --strict passes with no warnings.
