Real-world use case patterns (development, docs, refactoring, PR workflows)

🔬 Enhanced YAML Parser

123-line advanced parser with multi-level structure handling
Markdown code block removal for AI-generated content
Boolean/numeric/array value type detection and parsing
Robust error handling with fallbacks
Exported function for external testing and validation

📚 Extended Template Library

5 Built-in Professional Templates: Deployment, Documentation, Refactor, Testing, PR Workflows
Smart Testing Workflow: Conditional logic with file-check → branch paths
PR Workflow: Complete PR creation → model switch → review → merge
Custom Templates: Recursive subdirectory scanning from workflows/
Enhanced error messages: Clear feedback for invalid YAML files

🧪 Comprehensive Testing

15 AI builder tests (increased from 9 = +67% coverage)
75/75 workflow tests passing overall (increased from 69 = +9% coverage)
6 dedicated YAML parser tests for complex structures
Mock agent integration testing
Enhanced edge case coverage

🔧 All Minor Review Findings Addressed

✅ Custom Template Error Messages: Recursive directory search, helpful warnings, console feedback
✅ Exported YAML Parser: Function exported with comprehensive JSDoc documentation (18 lines)
