Durable Docs

Keep this folder for versioned reference docs that are meant to survive past a single design or implementation pass.

What Goes Here

• Stable reference material.
• Public-facing docs that are not part of the root README.
• Docs that other checked-in files link to.
• Telemetry availability notes that dashboard authors need after the original design or implementation branch is gone. See Telemetry Availability.
• Feature education state, interaction tracking, and retention analytics notes that define how contextual tours are persisted and measured. See Feature Education State, Feature Discovery Interaction Tracking, and Feature Education Retention Analytics.
• New-user parallel work telemetry notes that define how the parallel-work tour and setup guide should be measured against retention. See New User Parallel Work Telemetry.

What Stays Out

Ephemeral design notes, implementation sketches, and planning docs should stay as local Markdown files under docs/. They are ignored by default so they do not get checked in accidentally.
