OnboardingRole-specificContent curationGuide generation

The Challenge

Every new hire needs an onboarding guide, but building one means digging through dozens of Confluence spaces to find the right setup docs, process pages, and team info. The result is either a stale guide that was written once and never updated, or no guide at all because nobody has time to compile one from scratch.
