…prompt The `inlined-imports` front-matter field has been implemented and documented in docs/front-matter.md and docs/runtime-imports.md, but was absent from both the README front-matter fields reference table and the create-ado-agentic-workflow.md prompt guide. - Add `inlined-imports` row to the README "Front Matter Fields" table - Add Step 16 to the workflow creation prompt explaining when and how to use the field (default false, trade-off with compile-time resolution) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

The
inlined-importsfront-matter field (src/compile/types.rs:711) controls whether\{\\{\#runtime-import ...}}markers in the agent body are resolved at compile time (self-contained YAML) or at pipeline runtime (default, edit-without-recompile). It is fully implemented and documented indocs/front-matter.mdanddocs/runtime-imports.md, but was missing from:README.md— The "Front Matter Fields" table lists all supported fields, butinlined-importswas not included.prompts/create-ado-agentic-workflow.md— The step-by-step authoring guide covers Steps 1–15 but never mentionsinlined-imports, meaning AI agents using this prompt would never know to suggest it even when appropriate (e.g., for air-gapped or self-contained pipeline deployments).Applied Fixes
