Eric Garcia 0fea499957 feat: lifecycle suffixes for all document states + resolve all clippy warnings
Every document filename now mirrors its lifecycle state with a status
suffix (e.g., .draft.md, .wip.md, .accepted.md). No more bare .md for
tracked document types. Also renamed all from_str methods to parse to
avoid FromStr trait confusion, introduced StagingDeploymentParams struct,
and fixed all 19 clippy warnings across the codebase.

# RFC 0008: Status Update File Sync
| | |
|---|---|
| **Status** | Implemented |

## Summary
Status update handlers only update the database but not the markdown files, causing a sync mismatch between what users see in files and what's in the database.
## Problem
When status is updated via MCP tools:
- `blue_rfc_update_status` → Updates DB only ❌
- `blue_rfc_complete` → Updates DB only ❌
- `blue_spike_complete` → Updates both DB and file ✅
This causes confusion when users check markdown files expecting to see updated status.
## Proposal
Add a helper function to update markdown file status, then call it from all status-changing handlers.
### Implementation
1. Create `update_markdown_status(file_path, old_status, new_status)` helper in `blue-core`
2. Update `handle_rfc_update_status` in `server.rs` to call helper after DB update
3. Update `handle_rfc_complete` in `rfc.rs` to call helper after DB update
4. Consider adding to ADR handlers if they have status changes
### Helper Function
```rust
pub fn update_markdown_status(
file_path: &Path,
new_status: &str
) -> Result<(), std::io::Error> {
let content = fs::read_to_string(file_path)?;
// Match common status formats
let patterns = [
(r"\| \*\*Status\*\* \| [^|]+ \|", format!("| **Status** | {} |", new_status)),
(r"\*\*Status:\*\* \w+", format!("**Status:** {}", new_status)),
];
let mut updated = content;
for (pattern, replacement) in patterns {
updated = regex::Regex::new(pattern)
.unwrap()
.replace(&updated, replacement.as_str())
.to_string();
}
fs::write(file_path, updated)
}
```
## Test Plan
- [x] `blue_rfc_update_status` updates both DB and markdown file
- [x] `blue_rfc_complete` updates both DB and markdown file
- [x] Status patterns are correctly replaced (table format, inline format)
- [x] No changes to files without status fields
## Implementation Plan
- [x] Add `update_markdown_status` helper to blue-core (`documents.rs:391`)
- [x] Update `handle_rfc_update_status` in server.rs
- [x] Update `handle_complete` in rfc.rs
- [x] Add unit tests for status replacement
- [x] Refactor `blue_spike_complete` to use shared helper
