TAO Sidebar Implementation Plan

For Claude: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.

Goal: Restrict Flowershow's generated sidebar to the TAO section without changing the TAO index page.

Architecture: Use Flowershow's documented route-aware sidebar configuration in the site's root config.json. The /tao prefix controls both where the sidebar appears and which content tree it displays.

Tech Stack: Flowershow, JSON, Markdown

Task 1: Configure the TAO sidebar

Files:

• Modify: config.json

Step 1: Add the minimal configuration

Add showSidebar: true and a sidebar object containing orderBy: "title" and paths: ["/tao"].

Step 2: Validate JSON syntax and exact values

Run a Node.js assertion that parses config.json and checks the three configured values.

Expected: command exits successfully with TAO sidebar config valid.

Step 3: Verify scope

Run git diff --check and confirm git diff -- tao/index.md is empty.

Expected: no whitespace errors and no TAO index changes.
