docs(rfc): define and enforce a uniform RFC format; adopt it across the corpus

Browse Source 
Define the in-file RFC contract in docs/rfc/README.md § The file format:
the header block (`# RFC: <title>` plus a dateless Status enum
cross-checked against the lifecycle folder), the per-lifecycle body
skeleton (a Problem opener everywhere; Proposal/Alternatives considered/
Acceptance criteria/Risks in proposed/; present-tense Decision/
Consequences with proposal-era headings banned in implemented/; the
frozen proposal shape in rejected/), and a mandatory Alternatives
considered section with a date-fenced grandfather comment for pre-format
RFCs whose alternatives are not reconstructible from the record.

Enforce it with a new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-rfc-format.ts, and
normalize all 112 RFCs to it: ~15 Status-line spellings collapse to the
enum, 29 Context openers become Problem, the 39 legacy-format XXX debt
markers are resolved and banned from reappearing, proposal-era sections
in implemented RFCs are rewritten to shipped reality (including the
web/fs/subagent seam RFCs' migration plans and test checklists, closing
the doc-tiers deferred-work item on the web seam), every RFC gains an
Alternatives considered section or the grandfather comment, and the
bilingual pair is re-mirrored and re-recorded.

Move the generated index tables out of README.md into a fully generated
docs/rfc/INDEX.md — gen-rfc-index now writes the whole file, and
verify-rfc-classification checks its freshness and rejects index-shaped
rows in the curated README — which makes room for the format contract to
live in the README front door instead of a separate FORMAT.md.

The decision record, and the first RFC written in the new format, is
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-05-uniform-rfc-format.md.

# AGENTS.md — Implemented RFCs
These are RFCs whose decision has **shipped**. The repo-wide and docs-wide rules still apply ([root AGENTS.md](../../../AGENTS.md) § "Type safety and documentation", [docs/AGENTS.md](../../AGENTS.md)); this file adds one rule specific to this folder.

The repo-wide and docs-wide rules still apply ([root AGENTS.md](../../../AGENTS.md) § "Type safety and documentation", [docs/AGENTS.md](../../AGENTS.md)), and the in-file skeleton — including the proposal→implemented rewrite a lifecycle move owes — is [README.md § The file format](../README.md#the-file-format), gated by `verify-rfc-format`; this file adds one rule specific to this folder.
