CyberMind-FR 403283419c docs: Reorganize documentation structure and add architecture diagrams
Major documentation improvements and restructuring for better maintainability
and navigation.

## Structural Changes

### New Documentation Organization
- Move all documentation to DOCS/ directory for better organization
- Create DOCS/archive/ for historical documents
- Move deployment scripts to secubox-tools/ directory

### Archived Documents
- COMPLETION_REPORT.md → archive/ (project milestone)
- MODULE-ENABLE-DISABLE-DESIGN.md → archive/ (feature implemented)
- BUILD_ISSUES.md → archive/ (issues resolved)
- Add archive/README.md with archiving policy and document index

## Documentation Enhancements

### Version Standardization
- Add version headers to CLAUDE.md (v1.0.0)
- Add version headers to BUILD_ISSUES.md (v1.0.0)
- Standardize date format to YYYY-MM-DD across all docs

### Cross-References & Navigation
- Add "See Also" sections to PERMISSIONS-GUIDE.md
- Add "See Also" sections to VALIDATION-GUIDE.md
- Link quick references to detailed guides
- Improve documentation discoverability

### Architecture Diagrams (Mermaid)
Add 3 professional diagrams to DEVELOPMENT-GUIDELINES.md:

1. **System Architecture Diagram** (§2)
   - Complete data flow: Browser → LuCI → RPCD → ubus → System
   - Color-coded components by layer
   - Shows JavaScript, RPC, RPCD daemon, UCI, system services

2. **Deployment Workflow Diagram** (§9)
   - Step-by-step deployment process with validation checkpoints
   - Error recovery paths for common issues (403, 404, -32000)
   - Local validation, file transfer, permission fixes, service restarts

3. **Component Hierarchy Diagram** (§1)
   - Standard page structure and CSS class relationships
   - Page → Header → Stats → Content → Cards → Buttons
   - Shows design system component organization

## New Files

### TODO-ANALYSE.md

DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)

echo "Syncing docs to version $VERSION (date: $DATE)"

# Update all markdown files
find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.md" -type f | while read -r file; do
    if grep -q "^**Version:**" "$file"; then
        sed -i "s/^\*\*Version:\*\*.*/\*\*Version:\*\* $VERSION/" "$file"
        sed -i "s/^\*\*Last Updated:\*\*.*/\*\*Last Updated:\*\* $DATE/" "$file"

    fi
done

Action Items:

# Check for stale documentation

WARN_DAYS=90  # Warn if not updated in 90 days
ERROR_DAYS=180  # Error if not updated in 180 days

find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.md" -type f | while read -r file; do
    # Extract date from file
    date_str=$(grep "Last Updated:" "$file" | grep -oP '\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}')

    if [ -n "$date_str" ]; then
        # Calculate age
        age_days=$(( ($(date +%s) - $(date -d "$date_str" +%s)) / 86400 ))

        if [ $age_days -gt $ERROR_DAYS ]; then
            echo "❌ $file is $age_days days old (>$ERROR_DAYS)"
        elif [ $age_days -gt $WARN_DAYS ]; then

Risks & Concerns

  1. Maintenance Burden: More docs = more maintenance

    • Mitigation: Automation (Task 8)
  2. Translation Cost: Bilingual docs double the effort

    • Mitigation: Choose English-only or use translation tools
  3. Diagram Maintenance: Diagrams can become outdated

    • Mitigation: Generate from code where possible

Dependencies

  • External: GitHub Pages (if chosen for doc site)
  • Internal: secubox-tools scripts must be stable
  • Human: Technical writer for video tutorials (optional)
