Sam clarified that sidebar phone cleanup should be treated as a quick win so long as the skills and agent guidance do not cause a reversion. I traced the current rule sources and confirmed the Python quality gate already flags sidebar_visible_phone, and sail-sidebars already says the sidebar CTA should use a click-to-call link with the phone number only in the tel: href.
The gap was broader guidance: agents working from page-builder or revise skills could edit sidebars without being forced to load sail-sidebars or apply the phone anti-reversion rule. I patched that guidance.
/Users/samaguiar/Documents/Projects/Skills/pre-publish-qa/SKILL.md: added a blocking sidebar CTA phone rule. Sidebar pages must load sail-sidebars; visible sidebar phone numbers are a blocking failure./Users/samaguiar/Documents/Projects/Skills/web-content-revise/SKILL.md: added requirement to load sail-sidebars for sidebar edits and preserve the Call Now visible label with phone only in the tel: href./Users/samaguiar/Documents/Projects/Skills/sail-website-page-builder/SKILL.md: added sail-sidebars to load order when sidebars are involved, added a Sidebar CTA Standards section, and added deploy QA for no visible sidebar phone numbers./Users/samaguiar/Documents/Projects/Skills/sa-template-reference/SKILL.md: added a sidebar phone anti-reversion rule against visible city phone numbers in sidebar modules.Verified the updated guidance appears in all four files with rg. The audit code already catches visible sidebar phone numbers in /Users/samaguiar/Documents/Projects/wp-content-visual-scripts-2026/scripts/wp_content_quality_gate.py, so no code change was needed there.
The guidance patch is complete. No live WordPress pages were changed in this step. The next execution step can safely treat sidebar phone cleanup as a quick-win batch, then rerun the May 20 audit to confirm sidebar_visible_phone and sidebar_cta_label_drift counts drop.
Proceed with sidebar phone cleanup as a published-page batch, starting with the May 20 audit failures. Because the guidance is patched, future agents should be less likely to restore visible phone-number text in sidebar CTAs.
Importance: High. Status: complete for guidance, pending for live page cleanup.
