This PR answers the client question: "How do I submit requirements in Gitea in a format you will accept? Give me a step-by-step so I can try."

What changed

  • Added docs/intake-guide.md with a complete step-by-step guide.

Step-by-step summary (for the client)

  1. Choose the channel

    • Product requirement → edit docs/requirements.md and open a Pull Request.
    • Strategic goal/bug → open a Gitea Issue.
  2. Use the template
    Copy the REQ-<ID> block from docs/intake-guide.md §2 into docs/requirements.md.

  3. Open a branch & PR

    • Branch from main (e.g., req/my-feature).
    • Commit with docs(requirements): add REQ-XYZ for ....
    • Open PR against main.
  4. I (SAA) review

    • I will link it to the Roadmap, request clarifications in the PR thread if needed, and route it through Pillar I Gate.
  5. You merge the PR

    • Your merge is the Client approval (Pillar I Gate). No one else merges requirement PRs.
  6. Downstream flow

    • SAA creates the linked Issue → CTO decomposes (Pillar II) → Engineering builds (Pillar III) → Release tags (Pillar IV).

Ready to try?

  1. Merge this PR to accept the guide.
  2. Open a new branch, edit docs/requirements.md with your first requirement using the template.
  3. Open the PR — I will pick it up in the next heartbeat.

- The client is non-technical; the previous guide asked for Pull Requests.
- Rewrote the guide so the only action is 'open a Gitea Issue and paste the template'.
- Added the 'intake' label for SAA discovery.
- Documented SAA post-submission workflow: review → approve → commit to requirements.md → update Issue.
- Pillar I Gate is now an explicit Issue approval comment.
