Task: Task Doc Naming Standardization

Epic: E7 – Codebase Maintenance and Review
Story: S01 – Codebase Maintenance Tasks
Task ID: T08
Related FR: User directive (2026-03-16)
Priority: HIGH

Summary​

Implement a repository-wide naming policy for task documents using the format EddSddTdd-[Task Title].md (with a permitted Tddd extension for triple-digit tasks). Deliver a migration plan, rename backlog, and guardrails so Release Workflow, Kanban, and documentation tooling remain consistent.

Objectives​

  1. Update governance docs (Documentation Policy Framework, Kanban board guide, release runbook) to describe the new naming convention and exceptions.
  2. Inventory all existing task files, mapping legacy Tdd-* names to the new canonical format.
  3. Execute the rename/migration with automated link updates and audit logging.
  4. Add validation (lint/CI) to prevent regressions.
  5. Communicate the change to workflow agents and ensure RW Step 4 references are updated accordingly.

Deliverables​

  • Updated policy documentation referencing EddSddTdd-[Task Title].md.
  • Rename inventory + execution log in docs/maintenance/logs/mmw/.
  • Scripts or documented steps for atomic renames + reference updates.
  • Validator enhancements checking task filenames.
  • Release notes / Kanban updates showing migration completion.

Acceptance Criteria​

  • All task docs under docs/project-management/kanban/epics/** follow the new naming scheme (or are listed in an active migration log).
  • Kanban board, Story/Epic files, and RW documentation link to the renamed files without broken references.
  • Governance docs explicitly call out the naming requirement and exception clause.
  • CI/lint tooling fails if a new task doc violates the naming rule.
  • Migration log captures before/after filenames, timestamps, and responsible agent.
