What this PR does

Pass A — Fill new placeholders (3 files)

The mdoc pre-step regenerated stubs for three new/updated types. The writer agent filled all To be added. placeholders:

File Changes
HarfBuzzSharp/HBColor.xml Added rich type-level remarks with BGRA packed-layout explanation; normalized empty member <remarks> tags
SkiaSharp/SKImageFilter.xml Added rich type-level remarks (factory-only construction, Gaussian-blur example); filled CreateEmpty summary and returns
SkiaSharp/SKPathMeasure.xml Added rich type-level remarks (arc-length, multi-contour via NextContour, midpoint-sampling example); normalized empty member remarks

Pass R — Review existing docs (scope: group:text, 16 files)

The three reviewer agents audited the full group:text scope (SKCanvas, SKFont, SKFontArguments, SKFontManager, SKFontMetrics, SKFontStyle, SKFontStyleSet, SKFontStyleSlant, SKFontStyleWeight, SKFontStyleWidth, SKPaint, SKTextAlign, SKTextBlob, SKTextBlobBuilder, SKTextEncoding, SKTypeface).

Fixes applied to 4 files in this PR:

File Fix
SKCanvas.xml Migrated DrawText MemberGroup example to modern SKFont overloads; fixed wrong backend description ("XPS backend" → "Picture backend"); fixed transferedtransferred (×2)
SKPaint.xml Migrated type-level remarks example from obsolete SKPaint.TextSize/TextScaleX/DrawText(4-arg) to SKFont overloads
SKTypeface.xml Removed obsolete xrefs to SKPaint.TextSize/TextSkewX/TextScaleX/FakeBoldText from type-level remarks; migrated FromFile example to SKFont; fixed guarenteeguarantee
SKFont.xml Fixed 10 MeasureText overloads with wrong summary/returns copy-pasted from GetGlyphWidths; now correctly describe the scalar advance-width return value

Findings summary

Linter (pre-fix): 6 CRITICAL obsolete-in-example — reduced to 3 after fixes. The 3 remaining are linter false positives: the linter strips method signatures, so the bare name DrawText matches the modern non-obsolete 6-argument overload. The canonical replacement in obsolete-api-map.md itself uses canvas.DrawText(...), confirming this is a linter limitation.

Rewrite the daily writer to match the upgraded api-docs skill, which edits the
mdoc XML directly instead of the extract→write→merge JSON round-trip.

Host steps:
- Drop the "Extract placeholders and manifest" and "Upload extracted JSON" steps
  from regenerate-stubs, the "Download pre-extracted JSON" / "Save original JSON"
  pre-agent steps, and the "Save final JSON" post-step. None are needed without
  the JSON layer.
- Add a non-fatal "Bootstrap SkiaSharp binding for snippet checks" pre-agent step
  (externals-download + dotnet build binding/SkiaSharp) so the example reviewer
  can compile-check snippets against a real SkiaSharp.dll.
- Keep the SkiaSharpAPI symlink (for the host docs-format-docs post-step) and the
  formatting post-step.

Agent prompt (runtime-imported body):
- Replace the JSON phases with the skill's direct-XML add pipeline:
  resolve-scope new -> writer edits XML -> lint + 3 reviewers + synthesizer ->
  fix CRITICAL -> structural validate -> commit + PR.
- Route each sub-agent through the task tool's per-role model (writer/factual/
  examples = opus, quality/synthesizer = sonnet), with an engine.model fallback
  if the sandbox does not honor per-sub-agent models.
- Export DOCS_GIT_ROOT/DOCS_DIR on docs-tool.ps1 calls so scope/validate use the
  docs repo (primary checkout) for git baselines while source lookups still use
  the SkiaSharp clone.

Recompiled the .lock.yml via `gh aw compile`.

Note: depends on the matching api-docs skill update in mono/SkiaSharp (the cloned
skiasharp_branch must carry the new skill + docs-tool.ps1 DOCS_GIT_ROOT support).

The api-docs eval per-role bake-off picked gpt-5.5 for reviewer-factual (only
candidate that caught the seeded byte-order contradiction; best mean recall +
precision). Align the workflow's per-role routing note with the skill's updated
review.md table and reviewer-factual Model: header. Body-only change
(runtime-imported), so the compiled .lock.yml is unaffected.

…put)

Sibling of auto-api-docs-writer that runs the api-docs skill's REVIEW
pipeline on a scope (default group:text) instead of filling placeholders.
Doubles as the first CI exercise of per-sub-agent model routing: the
orchestrator launches each reviewer/writer sub-agent via the task tool
with an explicit model (factual -> gpt-5.5 per the eval bake-off) and
prints a Routing report so the run is auditable.

…g report)

Make the daily writer the common path: after the add pass (fill
placeholders) it now also runs a REVIEW pass over a baked scope of
existing docs (review-scope.txt, default group:text) — lint + 3 reviewers
+ synthesizer + fix CRITICAL/obsolete via per-role task models — then one
validate + PR covers both passes.

Because the writer is already registered on the docs default branch, this
is dispatchable on a feature branch (skiasharp_branch input) WITHOUT
landing a new workflow on main; the review scope is baked (not a dispatch
input) so input validation against the default branch still passes.

Adds a mandatory Routing report so the run doubles as the first CI
exercise of per-sub-agent model routing. Removes the now-redundant
standalone auto-api-docs-reviewer workflow.

…tself

The first CI pilot run completed green but produced NO PR. Root cause: the
orchestrator delegated the terminal fix step to a background "fixer" sub-agent,
then ended its turn before that agent (and the PR) completed -- exactly the
session-killing pattern the older workflow had guardrails against. Separately,
per-sub-agent model routing turned out to be cosmetic in the gh-aw sandbox: the
api-proxy token-usage log showed every call was claude-sonnet-4.6 regardless of
the requested per-role model.

Fixes:
- Pin the run model: explicit engine.model claude-sonnet-4.6 (drops the
  GH_AW_MODEL_AGENT_COPILOT override; orchestrator + every sub-agent run on it).
- Drop cosmetic per-role routing and the routing-report requirement; document
  per-role routing as a local-only skill feature.
- Terminal fixes are now the orchestrator's own FOREGROUND work (A4/R4); the
  only sub-agents launched are the pass-A writer and the reviewers. No terminal
  background agent. Synthesis is the orchestrator's job (no synthesizer agent).
- Restore the tight escape hatch: once reviewers report, timebox fixing to
  ~10 min, then validate + open the PR.
- Add an explicit "No terminal background agent" Critical rule and simplify the
  completion gate (create_pull_request/noop is the orchestrator's own job).

Recompiled auto-api-docs-writer.lock.yml.

Validation run 28203165066 produced a real PR (the orchestration fix worked),
but the agent rationalized out of step C: it saw it was already on the dispatch
ref (a feature branch ahead of main), decided to "commit here and create the PR
from this branch," and skipped `git checkout -b automation/write-api-docs`.
Because safe-outputs preserves the committed branch and force-resets it
(recreate_ref:true), this force-overwrote the workflow's own source branch.

Fix: make step C unconditional — `git checkout -B automation/write-api-docs`
before committing, even when already on a feature branch ahead of main, staging
only SkiaSharpAPI/. Add a matching Critical rule explaining that committing on
the dispatch ref destroys it under recreate_ref.

… runs

Root cause of the run-156 branch clobber: gh-aw's checkout step makes the
DISPATCH REF the agent's working branch (git checkout -B <dispatch-ref>). When
dispatched from a feature branch, the agent starts on that branch; it then
committed its doc work there instead of switching to automation/write-api-docs,
and safe-outputs (preserve_branch_name + recreate_ref) adopted that branch name
as the PR head and force-recreated it — erasing the workflow source commits.

Relying on the agent to switch branches is fragile (it rationalized staying put
because the branch was "already ahead by 1 commit"). Add a host pre-agent step
that renames the working branch to automation/write-api-docs before the agent
starts, so every commit and the PR head land on a throwaway branch regardless of
which ref triggered the run. The prompt rule remains as defense-in-depth.

Closing: this PR was a validation artifact from run 28203165066 that accidentally landed on the workflow source branch dev/p1b-direct-xml-writer (the agent committed on the dispatch ref instead of automation/write-api-docs). The orchestration fix is validated (a real PR was produced with both add + review passes), and the branch-collision root cause is now fixed at the host level. The actual doc changes (SKImageFilter add + SKFont/SKPaint/SKCanvas/SKTypeface review fixes) are preserved on branch validation/run156-docs for reference.
