I love the 'Flagship RPI' naming into HVE-CORE.
You have outdone yourself on this PR, either my agent friend or myself could not find any missing updates or discrepancies in docs/packaging. Thank you!

refactor!: restructure RPI collection to HVE Core naming convention
Description
This PR promotes the RPI collection to flagship status by renaming it to HVE Core and redesigning how repo-specific AI artifacts are identified and excluded from distribution. The change touches every layer of the system: artifact directories, collection manifests, plugin outputs, extension packaging, validation scripts, tests, and documentation.
Previously, all RPI workflow agents, prompts, and instructions lived under
.github/{type}/rpi/directories, and repo-specific artifacts were identified by living under anhve-core/subdirectory. This created a collision: thehve-core/name was simultaneously used for repo-internal exclusions and as the natural identity for the flagship collection.The restructuring resolves this by:
Moving all
.github/{type}/rpi/directories to.github/{type}/hve-core/, making the collection identity match the project name.Replacing the subdirectory-based exclusion convention with root-level detection. Repo-specific artifacts now live directly at the root of
.github/agents/,.github/instructions/,.github/prompts/, or.github/skills/(no subdirectory). Collection-scoped, distributable artifacts reside in subdirectories likehve-core/,ado/,shared/, etc.Updating the exclusion functions
Test-HveCoreRepoSpecificPath(from$RelativePath -like 'hve-core/*'to$RelativePath -notlike '*/*') andTest-HveCoreRepoRelativePath(from.github/.*/hve-core/regex to^\.github/(agents|instructions|prompts|skills)/[^/]+$).Renaming
rpi.collection.ymltohve-core.collection.ymlwith updated metadata, and creating the correspondingplugins/hve-core/output directory while removingplugins/rpi/.Reassigning the flagship extension identity from
hve-core-alltohve-core, so thehve-corecollection now producesextension/package.jsonandextension/README.md(the default extension artifacts), whilehve-core-allgets explicitpackage.hve-core-all.jsonandREADME.hve-core-all.mdfiles.Updating marketplace.json to register the new
hve-coreplugin entry and remove therpientry.Updating VS Code settings (
.vscode/settings.json) to point at the newhve-coredirectories instead ofrpi.Updating all internal cross-references within agents, subagents, documentation, the installer agent, workflow README, and contributing guides to use
hve-core/paths.Rewriting all affected tests across
PluginHelpers.Tests.ps1,Validate-Collections.Tests.ps1, andPrepare-Extension.Tests.ps1to validate the new root-level exclusion convention and updated collection identity.Related Issue(s)
