The DRIVER-MANAGER-MIGRATION-PLAN was self-declared complete (the driver-manager cutover happened 2026-07-23 per local/AGENTS.md). It is now historical reference material rather than current planning authority. Move it from local/docs/ into the established legacy-obsolete-2026-07-25/ archive directory, updating every inbound reference. Also includes minor cross-doc alignment for the previous round's relocations: - local/AGENTS.md: update DRIVER-MANAGER-MIGRATION-PLAN to point to the legacy archive - local/docs/REDBEAR-FULL-SDDM-BRINGUP.md: alignment update - local/docs/CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md: alignment update - local/docs/archived/README.md: refresh archive contents note - local/recipes/system/redbear-driver-policy/source/policy/README.md: policy doc drift alignment - local/scripts/guard-recipes.sh: fix symlink target computation (relative path was being glued onto an absolute path, producing malformed dangling links like '../..//mnt/.../recipe.toml') -- this is a real bug fix discovered during this audit round.

DOCS — ARCHITECTURE & INTEGRATION DOCUMENTATION
Public docs/ files now mix three roles:
- canonical repository-level policy/current-state docs,
- architecture/reference docs,
- and older roadmap/design docs that are still useful but partly historical.
Do not assume everything under docs/ is equally current.
For current Red Bear OS status, also read:

Note: 05-KDE-PLASMA-ON-REDOX.md was relocated to
local/docs/legacy-obsolete-2026-07-25/05-KDE-PLASMA-ON-REDOX.md (2026-07-27).
It remains a historical KDE implementation reference.

READING RULE
When a current-state local document conflicts with an older public roadmap/design file, prefer the current local subsystem plan or the canonical public implementation plan.
