Summary:
- The PR moves the runtime `HEARTBEAT.md` bootstrap template into `src/agents/templates`, keeps docs templates ... or other workspace files, adds a legacy heartbeat-template doctor repair, and updates package guards/tests.
- PR surface: Source +281, Tests +283, Docs +11, Config +1, Other 0. Total +576 across 15 files.
- Reproducibility: yes. from source inspection: current main loads `HEARTBEAT.md` from the docs template, and ... pty heartbeat file non-empty to the runtime. I did not run a live heartbeat repro in this read-only review.

- Add description to docs.json for llms.txt blockquote summary
- Add title frontmatter to 10 docs files for llms.txt link text
- ci(docker): skip builds for docs-only changes
* feat: skip heartbeat API calls when HEARTBEAT.md is effectively empty
- Added isHeartbeatContentEffectivelyEmpty() to detect files with only headers/comments
- Modified runHeartbeatOnce() to check HEARTBEAT.md content before polling the LLM
- Returns early with 'empty-heartbeat-file' reason when no actionable tasks exist
- Preserves existing behavior when file is missing (lets LLM decide)
- Added comprehensive test coverage for empty file detection
- Saves API calls/costs when heartbeat file has no meaningful content
* chore: update HEARTBEAT.md template to be effectively empty by default
Changed instruction text to comment format so new workspaces benefit from
heartbeat optimization immediately. Users still get clear guidance on usage.
* fix: only treat markdown headers (# followed by space) as comments, not #TODO etc
* refactor: simplify regex per code review suggestion
* docs: clarify heartbeat empty file behavior (#1535) (thanks @JustYannicc)
