#219 - Feature: Points cleanup — remove points from template-ticket and sop-board-workflow - forgejo_admin/pal-e-platform

Feature

Lineage

Child of forgejo_admin/pal-e-platform#183 (Convention updates — kanban alignment from Capacitor dogfood)

Repo

forgejo_admin/pal-e-platform (tracked here; changes are pal-e-docs note edits via MCP tools)

User Story

As Betty Sue
I want all references to "points" removed from the ticket template and board workflow SOP
So that conventions match the established feedback_no_points.md behavioral rule and agents stop assigning points

Context

During the Capacitor pipeline dogfood (2026-03-26), we confirmed that story points are waste (muda + mura + muri). Flow is measured by cycle time + throughput, not points. The template-ticket and sop-board-workflow notes still reference point assignment, contradicting feedback_no_points.md. This sub-ticket removes those references.

File Targets

pal-e-docs notes to update (via MCP tools, not file edits):

template-ticket — remove points field description from the field definitions section, remove "assign points" from triage checklist
sop-board-workflow — remove "assign points" from triage step 3, add WIP limit guidance in its place

Acceptance Criteria

template-ticket note contains no mention of "points" in field descriptions
template-ticket triage checklist does not include "assign points"
sop-board-workflow triage step 3 does not reference point assignment
WIP limit guidance added to sop-board-workflow where points guidance was removed
No other content in these notes is altered

Test Expectations

template-ticket note contains zero occurrences of "points" in field description or triage sections
sop-board-workflow triage step 3 references WIP limits, not points
Both notes remain well-formed markdown after edits

Constraints

These are pal-e-docs note updates via MCP tools, not code changes
Additive changes only — don't break existing board items
Must stay within the 2-target threshold for this sub-ticket
Each note change should be its own commit for traceability

Checklist

template-ticket points references removed
sop-board-workflow points references removed and WIP limit guidance added
Changes verified via get_note after update
No contradictions introduced with other convention notes
