 /**
- * lib/init-docs.mjs — AI-powered doc structure scaffolding
+ * lib/init-docs.mjs — stand up a documentation system for a project.
  *
- * Uses a fast model (Haiku) to analyze the project, ask 2-3 clarifying
- * questions, then generate a tailored documentation structure.
- * Falls back to a minimal static scaffold if no API key is available.
+ * Intentionally separate from `construct init`. Creates the docs surface only:
+ * docs/README.md plus selected lane directories such as docs/adr/, docs/intake/,
+ * docs/memos/, docs/notes/, docs/prds/, and docs/rfcs/ with starter templates
+ * copied into per-lane templates/ directories from Construct's template library.
  *
  * Usage:
- *   node lib/init-docs.mjs [target-path] [--yes]
- *   construct init-docs [path] [--yes]
+ *   node lib/init-docs.mjs [target-path] [--yes] [--docs=prds,rfcs,adrs] [--with-architecture] [--suggest-org] [--organize]
+ *   construct init-docs [path] [--yes] [--docs=prds,rfcs,adrs] [--with-architecture] [--suggest-org] [--organize]
+ *
+ * Flags:
+ *   --yes          Skip interactive prompts and use defaults.
+ *   --docs         Comma-separated list of lanes to initialize (default: adrs,intake,memos,notes,prds).
+ *   --with-architecture  Also create docs/architecture.md.
+ *   --suggest-org  Scan existing .md files and suggest where they might belong (no changes made).
+ *   --organize     Actually move files to suggested locations (implies --suggest-org, requires --yes to avoid prompts).

+- Use Beads or the project's external tracker for durable task tracking.
+- Use \`plan.md\` for the current implementation plan.
+- Use this \`docs/\` tree for durable narrative artifacts and decision records.
+- If multiple agent or harness sessions are active, use a single writer per file and coordinate handoffs in the tracker or \`plan.md\`.
