Necessary/useful instructions

AGENTS.md "UI copy" (final on first paint): shaped Option B's risk about async cache reads; retain.
private_message_history_sync_storage_findings.md "Plaintext ... browser memory only": surfaced a prior decision the recommendation must amend; retain the habit of reading prior findings.
step1_solution_assessment.md Structure (Original Query, options, recommendation): kept the comparison short; retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

RAILSPIKE.md Experimental Effort Estimation: long relative to a one-page Step 1; recording intake and handoff values that are equal after inspection added bookkeeping with little signal. Suggest consolidating intake and Step 1 snapshots when both follow inspection.

Inapplicable instructions

Step 1 "Next" /new or /clear reminder: conversation had prior discussion, so it applies; no inapplicable items otherwise.

Uncertain assessments

R1 reference hashes were not re-verified this session; recorded as such rather than claimed.

Necessary/useful instructions

step2_feature_description.md "Known user or environment": forced naming iPhone Safari evidence, which desktop browser runs would otherwise have stood in for; retain.
implementation_standards.md shared component inventory: surfaced clearBrowserIdentity and outbox_storage.js as extension points; retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

Effort-study snapshot repeated at Step 2 with an unchanged value; low signal when scope did not change. Suggest allowing "reaffirmed" as a ledger-only line.

Inapplicable instructions

Uncertain assessments

Whether "Release condition: flag off by default" fits the guardrail that a feature is a normal-flow vertical slice; treated as satisfied because the flag-on path is a complete user flow.

Necessary/useful instructions

step3_development_plan_do.md "include a stage that replays each reported failure": produced Stage 6 for iPhone Safari; retain.
step3_development_plan_do.md "Prefix usability, data, or rollback risks High risk": made the trust and first-paint risks stand out; retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

Plan ≤1 page plus per-stage seven-field template: six stages fill well over a page; the two constraints conflict. Suggest allowing the template to exceed one page or a compact table form.

Inapplicable instructions

Uncertain assessments

Stage estimates happen to sum to the cycle estimate (0.70); the cycle value was judged independently and kept, not derived.

Necessary/useful instructions

step4_implementation_before.md Planning Docs Commit Gate: kept plans and implementation separable in history; retain.
implementation_standards.md "Replay each reported failure ... a pass elsewhere does not establish recovery": kept Stage 6 honestly pending instead of counting desktop Chromium; retain.
AGENTS.md "identify reproduced baseline failures": comparison runs on a clean origin/main worktree separated three pre-existing messaging-suite failures from this work; retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

step4_implementation_after.md commit-count rule (1 + number_of_stages): a maintainer-only acceptance stage can't have its own commit before handoff, so the count is necessarily one short while it is pending. Suggest exempting pending acceptance-only stages.

Inapplicable instructions

Uncertain assessments

Whether the Step 4 summary should have been created before any Stage 1 edit; it was created after the planning commit but while Stage 1 changes were in the working tree. Recorded in the summary's study snapshot.
