- Line 31: Update the repository tree entry in CONTRIBUTING.md to reference
.github/CONTRIBUTING.md, and update the CONTRIBUTING.md link in SECURITY.adoc to
target the relocated .github/CONTRIBUTING.md path.
- Line 20: Remove the leading four-space indentation from the Markdown prose,
headings, lists, and paragraphs in the repository structure documentation,
including the “Repository Structure” heading, so GitHub renders them as normal
document content rather than code blocks.
- Around line 98-102: Update the Conventional Commits template in the
contribution guide by placing the complete literal template in a fenced code
block, preserving the type, scope, description, optional body, and optional
footer placeholders so they render as commit syntax rather than HTML.
- Line 49: Update the bug report and feature request links in CONTRIBUTING.md to
use paths relative to the .github directory: replace the .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE
prefixes with ISSUE_TEMPLATE while preserving the existing template filenames
and link text.
- Line 3: Restore the command and example formatting in CONTRIBUTING.md:
separate git clone and cd marches, fix the toolbox and just command instructions
similarly, and place repository-tree and branch examples in fenced preformatted
blocks. Preserve each example’s intended commands and structure while separating
sequential commands with newlines or &&.

Restore the command and preformatted blocks.
The conversion has joined separate commands and examples into single paragraphs. git clone ... cd marches passes extra arguments to git clone. The toolbox and just instructions have the same defect. The repository tree and branch examples are also unreadable as structured content. Put each example in a fenced block and separate commands with newlines or &&.
Also applies to: 11-12, 16-17, 22-33, 88-91

| ### Repository Structure |

Remove indentation from Markdown content.
GitHub Markdown treats four leading spaces as an indented code block. ### Repository Structure and the later headings, lists, and paragraphs therefore render as code instead of document content. Remove the four-space prefix from Markdown prose and headings.

Update the relocated contribution-guide paths.
The repository tree still lists CONTRIBUTING.md at the repository root, but the new file is .github/CONTRIBUTING.md. SECURITY.adoc also still links to the deleted root CONTRIBUTING.md. Update both references.

Preserve the Conventional Commits template.
The angle-bracket placeholders are interpreted as HTML tags, so the example renders as (): instead of valid commit syntax. Put the complete template in a fenced code block, including the literal type, scope, description, body, and footer placeholders.

The task could not be completed. Open the task for details or retry. |
a2ml is retired (standards #837); cicd-suite #27 moved the contractile/ formatting gates to DEED document forms with legacy .a2ml accepted only mid-migration. Pin bumped so this repo's estate audit exercises the DEED-era gates.
