### Status: N/A

No DB-layer changes were introduced.

***

## 6. Success Criteria

From `spec.md`:

### Functional Requirements

* [x] Updated manuals accurately describe implemented Phase 24 behavior.
* [x] Optional/deferred behavior is labeled clearly and not presented as a default product path.
* [x] Reference mode registry imports every expected manual with stable IDs, source paths, labels, descriptions, and non-empty Markdown.
* [x] Cross-document Trend Finder links resolve to Reference mode targets.
* [x] User-facing manuals avoid example-specific Instagram/Reels product language except when saying what was not copied.

### Testing Requirements

* [x] Focused Reference mode tests pass.
* [x] Markdown viewer/link tests pass if touched.
* [x] Relevant format, lint, and type checks pass or any skipped command is documented with reason.

### Non-Functional Requirements

* [x] Browser-visible documentation reinforces reviewed-source, local-only, and private-cache boundaries.
* [x] No manual implies unreviewed sources, raw transcript exposure, raw logs, raw Actor/Dataset rows, billing payloads, account auth, or default public deployment.
* [x] Docs remain concise enough to be useful in in-app Reference mode.

### Quality Gates

* [x] All files ASCII-encoded.
* [x] Unix LF line endings.
* [x] Code and docs follow project conventions.

***

## 7. Conventions Compliance

### Status: PASS

The updated manuals and Reference mode metadata stayed within the existing repository conventions. No naming, structure, or error-handling regressions were introduced.

***

## 8. Security and GDPR

### Status: PASS / N/A

* Security review passed with no findings.
* GDPR is N/A because no personal data was collected or processed.

***

## 9. Behavioral Quality

### Status: PASS

Focused spot-checks found no broken Markdown import paths, stale Reference mode labels, or unsafe link handling in the updated docs viewer coverage.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase24-session08-cross-surface-documentation-reference-mode/validation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
