- Add --target-type (auto|page|component) with intelligent detection
- Remove Phase 0d from explore-auto.md (131 lines of duplicate logic)
- Implement detect_target_type() helper for automatic classification
- Update generate.md to support adaptive wrapper generation
- Full HTML structure for pages
- Minimal wrapper for isolated components
- Update imitate-auto.md and update.md for parameter consistency
- Enhance ui-design-agent.md with adaptive design capabilities
- Maintain full backward compatibility with legacy syntax
Benefits:
- Code reduction: -35% in target inference logic (255 → 165 lines)
- Maintenance: Single unified logic path vs dual implementations
- Extensibility: Foundation for future mixed-mode support
- UX: Simpler parameter model with automatic type detection
Technical Details:
- explore-auto.md: 605 lines changed (unified Phase 0c)

Fix layout strategy generation issues across UI design commands:
- consolidate.md: Enhance layout synthesis prompt with explicit examples and requirements
* Add concrete 3-layout example to clarify expected output structure
* Emphasize requirement to generate EXACTLY N strategies (not more, not less)
* Add sequential ID validation (layout-1, layout-2, ..., layout-N)
- explore-auto.md: Add missing --layout-variants parameter to consolidate command call
* Phase 2 now passes layout_variants count to ensure correct strategy generation
* Prevents mismatch between requested layouts and generated strategies
- extract.md: Update next step suggestions to include --layout-variants parameter
* Users now see optional [--layout-variants <count>] in command examples
* Improves discoverability of layout customization option
Before: consolidate would only generate default 3 layouts even when user specified different count
After: consolidate receives and respects user-specified layout variant count

Major redesign of test-gen workflow based on simplified architecture:
Core Changes:
- Creates independent test session (WFS-test-[source]) instead of modifying existing session
- Implements 4-phase execution with concept-enhanced analysis integration
- Reuses IMPL-*.json format with meta.type="test-fix" (no new task type)
- Auto-detects cross-session context via workflow-session.json metadata
4-Phase Workflow:
1. Phase 1: Create test session with workflow_type and source_session_id metadata
2. Phase 2: Auto-detect and gather cross-session context (summaries, git changes, tests)
3. Phase 3: Analyze implementation with concept-enhanced (parallel Gemini + Codex)
4. Phase 4: Generate IMPL-001.json task with test strategy from ANALYSIS_RESULTS.md
Key Features:
- Session isolation: Test session separate from implementation session
- Parameter simplification: context-gather auto-detects via metadata (no --source-session param)
- Format reuse: IMPL-*.json with meta.type field (zero changes to execute/status tools)
- Analysis integration: concept-enhanced provides comprehensive test strategy and code targets
- Automatic cross-session: Collects source session artifacts automatically
Tool Modifications Required:
- session-start: Support test session metadata (workflow_type, source_session_id)
- context-gather: Auto-detect test session and gather from source session
- task-generate: Extract test strategy from ANALYSIS_RESULTS.md
- concept-enhanced: No changes (already supports analysis)
- execute: No changes (already dispatches by meta.agent)
Data Flow:
User → session-start (creates test session) → context-gather (auto cross-session)
→ concept-enhanced (analyzes + generates strategy) → task-generate (creates task)
→ Returns summary → User triggers /workflow:execute separately
