### Configuration Loading

1. Load project config
2. Locate page specifications at `{output_folder}/C-UX-Scenarios/`
3. Begin: Load and execute `./steps-v/step-01-page-metadata.md`

|------|------|-----------|
| 01 | Page Metadata | Title, URL, purpose defined |
| 02 | Navigation | Entry/exit points, breadcrumbs, nav items |
| 03 | Page Overview | Overall structure and flow |
| 04 | Page Sections | Each section complete and ordered |
| 05 | Section Order | Logical progression |
| 06 | Object Registry | All components registered |
| 07 | Design System Separation | Components vs. page-specific |
| 08 | SEO Compliance | Headings, meta, keyword alignment |
| 09 | Design System Consistency | Cross-page component usage |
