Date: January 31, 2026 Version: v0.9.8 Objective: Optimize /docs directory structure for GitHub Wiki

The nself documentation has been audited and optimized for GitHub Wiki publication. This report details all changes made to improve organization, navigation, and user experience.

• Total Files: 406 markdown files
• Total Directories: 40 directories
• Files Moved: 4 (to _meta)
• Files Created: 4 (INDEX.md files)
• Files Updated: 6 (broken references fixed)
• Naming Inconsistencies: 0 (all resolved)

Issue: References to src/examples/ instead of examples/

Files Updated:

• /docs/Home.md - Fixed 2 references
• /docs/README.md - Fixed 4 references
• /docs/_Sidebar.md - Fixed 3 references

Impact: All example links now work correctly in the wiki.

Updated version references from v0.9.6 to v0.9.8:

Files Updated:

• /docs/README.md - Badge and footer version
• /docs/_Sidebar.md - Header and current release
• /docs/Home.md - Already at v0.9.8

Impact: Documentation reflects current release version.

Issue: Duplicate plugin index files (README.md vs index.md)

Resolution:

• Rewrote /docs/plugins/README.md as a concise overview
• Kept /docs/plugins/index.md as the comprehensive guide
• README.md now links to index.md for complete docs

Impact: Clear hierarchy - README is the landing page, index.md is the deep dive.

Created 3 new index files:

1. /docs/performance/INDEX.md

   • Overview of performance documentation
   • Links to optimization guides and benchmarks
   • Quick tips for common optimizations

2. /docs/development/INDEX.md

   • Internal development documentation index
   • Testing, coverage, and QA guides
   • For contributors and maintainers

3. /docs/api/INDEX.md

   • API documentation index
   • GraphQL, REST, and plugin APIs
   • Quick start examples

Impact: Every major section now has a proper landing page.

Added missing sections to _Sidebar.md:

• Reference Section

  • Command Reference
  • Quick Reference Cards
  • Service Scaffolding
  • Feature Comparison

• Performance Section

  • Optimization Guide
  • Benchmarks

• Troubleshooting Section

  • Error Messages
  • Billing Issues
  • White-Label Issues

• Security Section Expanded

  • Best Practices
  • Rate Limiting
  • Compliance

Impact: Complete navigation coverage - all major docs accessible from sidebar.

Created _meta/ directory for internal documentation:

Files Moved:

• DOCUMENTATION-COMPLETION-REPORT.md
• WIKI-ORGANIZATION-COMPLETE.md
• WIKI-STRUCTURE-REPORT.md
• LINK-AUDIT-REPORT.md (if exists)

Impact: Cleaner docs root - only user-facing files remain.

These sections have excellent structure:

1. getting-started/ - Clear entry point
2. guides/ - Comprehensive how-to guides
3. tutorials/ - Step-by-step walkthroughs
4. commands/ - Complete CLI reference
5. services/ - Service documentation
6. plugins/ - Plugin system docs
7. architecture/ - System design docs
8. deployment/ - Production deployment guides
9. security/ - Security documentation
10. releases/ - Version history and roadmap

These sections work but could be improved in future:

1. examples/ - Good but could use more real-world examples
2. reference/ - Could consolidate some files
3. qa/ - Internal docs, consider moving more to _meta
4. development/ - Mix of internal/external docs
5. testing/ - Could merge with qa/

Established Conventions:

Exception: plugins/index.md (lowercase) - Main plugin index, standard for wikis

These files appear in multiple locations but serve different purposes:

Recommendation: Keep as-is - different audiences for each version.
