[Task] Slim down branching strategy and align with live labeler rules #505

Closed

Description

@ashleyshaw

Deliverable

Update branching documentation to explicitly separate required core prefixes from optional profile prefixes and align with current automation.

Scope Boundary

  • In scope: documentation clarity and consistency updates.
  • Out of scope: changing branch-prefix behaviour in workflows.

Acceptance Checklist

  • Required core prefix set is explicit and concise.
  • Optional profile prefixes for client/product contexts are explicit.
  • References point to canonical spec and .github/labeler.yml.
  • No contradictions with current labeler branch regex.

Branch Prefix Expectation

  • Use docs/.

Validation Commands
