- Add YAML frontmatter support with split_yaml_frontmatter() in preprocess.rs - Update create_scene_pair to create single merged files with YAML frontmatter - Rename 06-First Draft to 05-First Draft and merge with 05-Plot content - Update default_project_open_subdir to '05-First Draft' - Add capitalizes filter to MiniJinja environment for template rendering - Fix template placeholder escaping in CONSISTENCY.md - Update all references from 06-First Draft and 05-Plot to 05-First Draft - Update test expectations to match new folder structure The merged approach uses YAML frontmatter (--- delimiters) at the top of each draft file to store planning metadata, allowing it to be collapsed in the editor while keeping all planning and draft content in one file.
