Four claims in shipped agent-facing docs did not match verified behaviour.
These are read as ground truth by agents in other repos, so each was
reproduced against vale 3.15.2 before rewriting:
- CONTEXT.md and `vale-config/SKILL.md` said both `>` and `|` block scalars
break the description scope. `|` does not — it lints normally and fires every
alert, while `>` yields zero. An agent following the old text would rewrite a
working `|` description into a plain multi-line scalar, which genuinely does
break, inverting the intended remediation. Both now name the forms that do
break and state that `|` does not.
- CONTEXT.md and ADR-0013 described the size hook as failing only above 500
lines, omitting the 2900-word gate it also enforces. Both now describe the
pair and state that `validate.sh` checks the same two.
- ADR-0014 recorded an accepted residual — a wholesale `assets/` deletion going
unflagged — that commit 14c2c91 closed. Left as the point-in-time record and
amended with an update describing the union-with-tag-manifest mechanism,
following the amendment precedent in ADR-0005.
- `vale-config/SKILL.md` asserted a fresh `.vale.ini` fails until `vale sync`
runs, contradicting its own note that built-in styles need no download. The
claim is now scoped to package styles; this repo's two configs declare no
packages and lint clean with zero syncs.
Also repoints AGENTS.md at the seven `gitea:*` skills — the `bin:gitea` route
it named no longer exists.
