+Migrating Consumer Repositories
+===============================
+
+Use this guide when an existing PHP package repository is adopting
+``fast-forward/dev-tools`` for the first time. The goal is to introduce the
+shared Composer scripts, workflow stubs, wiki setup, skills, and repository
+defaults in a reviewable pull request.
+
+This page complements :doc:`syncing-consumer-projects`; it focuses on the
+migration path instead of the full command reference.
+
+Preflight Checks
+----------------
+
+Before installing DevTools, confirm the repository has:
+
+- a committed ``composer.json`` with the package name, PHP constraint, license,
+  and autoload settings already reviewed;
+- a clean working tree;
+- a configured ``origin`` remote that points to the GitHub repository;
+- agreement on whether the repository should publish GitHub Pages reports and a
+  GitHub Wiki;
+- a maintainer who can review workflow, Dependabot, and branch protection
+  changes.
+
+If the repository already has custom workflows or generated documentation, list
+the files that must be preserved before running sync. The sync command protects
+many existing files by default, but maintainers should still review the outcome
+as infrastructure code.
+
+Install DevTools
+----------------
+
+Install the package as a development dependency:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    composer require --dev fast-forward/dev-tools
+
+Commit the Composer changes separately only if the repository prefers very small
+review steps. For most migrations, it is reasonable to keep the Composer update
+and generated sync changes in the same pull request so reviewers can understand
+the complete automation model.
+
+Run Sync Safely
+---------------
+
+Run the sync command from the repository root:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    composer dev-tools:sync
+
+Then inspect the result before staging anything:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    git status --short
+    git diff
+
+Expected changes can include:
+
+.. list-table::
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Area
+     - Expected change
+     - Review focus
+   * - ``composer.json``
+     - Adds shared ``dev-tools`` scripts and GrumPHP defaults.
+     - Keep existing package metadata, scripts, and project-specific settings.
+   * - ``.github/workflows/*.yml``
+     - Adds thin workflow stubs that call reusable Fast Forward workflows.
+     - Compare with any existing CI, release, docs, or Pages workflows.
+   * - ``.editorconfig``
+     - Adds the shared editor defaults when missing.
+     - Confirm indentation and line-ending expectations match the project.
+   * - ``.github/dependabot.yml``
+     - Adds the shared Dependabot template when missing.
+     - Confirm update cadence and ecosystem coverage.
+   * - ``.github/wiki``
+     - Adds the wiki submodule when missing.
+     - Confirm the wiki repository exists and branch protection is compatible.
+   * - ``.agents/skills``
+     - Links packaged skills for issue, PR, tests, docs, README, and style work.
+     - Preserve existing custom skills and non-symlink directories.
+   * - ``LICENSE``
+     - Adds the packaged license file when missing.
+     - Confirm it matches the package metadata.
+   * - ``.gitignore`` and ``.gitattributes``
+     - Adds repository defaults when missing.
+     - Keep existing project-specific ignores and export rules.
+
+Handling Existing Custom Files
+------------------------------
+
+When a target file already exists, treat the migration as a comparison exercise:
+
+1. keep the existing file in place;
+2. compare it with the corresponding packaged file or workflow stub;
+3. copy only the entries that make sense for the repository;
+4. leave a pull request note explaining any intentional divergence.
+
+This is especially important for custom CI workflows, release automation,
+repository-specific ``.gitignore`` rules, and existing Dependabot policies.
+Shared defaults are meant to reduce repeated maintenance, not erase local
+constraints.
+
+Branch Protection and Bot Commits
+---------------------------------
+
+Consumer repositories commonly protect ``main``. That is compatible with the
+Fast Forward model:
+
+- pull requests receive generated previews and bot updates on the PR branch;
+- report previews are published under PR-specific Pages paths;
+- wiki previews use branches such as ``pr-123`` before merge;
+- post-merge jobs publish final reports and wiki content from ``main``.
+
+If branch protection blocks bot commits to pull request branches, either adjust
+the repository policy to allow workflow updates on PR branches or document that
+maintainers must refresh generated pointers manually before merge.
+
+Suggested Pull Request Rollout
+------------------------------
+
+Use one migration pull request per consumer repository:
+
+1. install ``fast-forward/dev-tools``;
+2. run ``composer dev-tools:sync``;
+3. review and adapt generated files;
+4. run the smallest relevant local verification command;
+5. open the pull request and let GitHub Actions create previews;
+6. verify report and wiki preview links before merge;
+7. merge through the protected ``main`` branch.
+
+After merge, confirm that the final reports and wiki pages reflect the merged
+revision. If they do not, inspect the workflow logs before making follow-up
+changes.
