refactor: rename copilot-instructions-cli to ums-cli#89
Conversation
- Rename package from copilot-instructions-cli to ums-cli - Update all workspace scripts, TypeScript configs, and ESLint patterns - Update documentation and architecture diagrams to reflect new name - Add 'ums' binary alias while preserving 'copilot-instructions' for backwards compatibility - Fix ums-lib version mismatch in ums-sdk (^2.0.0 → ^1.0.0) - Enhance npm keywords for better discoverability - Preserve git history with git mv for all renames Package remains discoverable via 'copilot instructions' search on npm due to optimized keywords and preserved binary command name.

Code Review
This pull request is a comprehensive refactoring to rename the copilot-instructions-cli package to ums-cli. The changes span across 51 files, including source code, configuration, and documentation, and appear to be consistently and correctly applied throughout the monorepo. I've identified a couple of minor inconsistencies in the documentation that could be improved for clarity. Specifically, one new documentation file refers to an outdated file format, and a usage example in the CLI's README seems to be incorrect based on the current implementation. Addressing these points will help ensure all documentation is accurate and up-to-date with the new package structure and functionality.

The example for building from stdin (cat persona.ts | ...) appears to be incorrect. The build command requires the --persona <file> argument to be specified, and it seems designed to load a TypeScript file from a path, not from standard input. Please either update the CLI to support reading from stdin or correct the documentation to reflect the actual usage. A possible correction would be to remove this example if stdin is not supported.

The PR description mentions a bug fix for the ums-lib version mismatch, changing it from ^2.0.0 to ^1.0.0. This change correctly aligns the dependency version. However, it's worth considering if using a workspace protocol (e.g., workspace:^) would be more robust for managing internal package versions within this monorepo. This would ensure that the version is always in sync with the local ums-lib package version.

The SDK now depends on ums-lib ^1.0.0, but the CLI and repository docs prominently reference UMS v2.0. Please align the versioning by bumping ums-lib here to ^2.0.0 if the SDK targets UMS v2, or explicitly document that ums-sdk currently targets UMS v1 to avoid confusion.

This still references UMS v1.0 while the rest of the repo (and the ums-cli README) describe UMS v2.0. Update this line to v2.0 (and optionally note the TS-first module format) for consistency.

Wording implies the SDK is part of the ums-cli project; it's a separate package used by the CLI. Suggest rephrasing to 'This package is part of the Instructions Composer monorepo' or 'UMS project' for clarity.
