Repository source: docs/plans/feedback_work_restart/feedback_work_restart_step3_development_plan.md
Effort study: railspike-effort / v3/feedback_work_restart; host ledger. Standing P2 enrollment.
Extended estimates: enabled
Approved Step 2: 2026-11-04, no scope added since.
Cycle estimate: 0.60
Concepts touched
Feedback item (new): add to the concept inventory in Stage 1.
Feedback triage (changed), production feedback register (retired as authority): update their references in Stages 4 and 6.
Agent instructions (new home):
docs/agents/, Stage 6.Instance import: used, unchanged.
Completion Contract
Entry:
./v3 import-instance zenmemes.com, then ask an agent to triage feedback since a date.Outcome: proposals shown; accepted changes written as item files under
docs/feedback/items/;./v3 feedback checkpasses;./v3 feedback indexregeneratesdocs/feedback/README.md; the maintainer commits.Recovery: proposals are written only after review; Git reverts a bad apply; files are written atomically; rerunning a window proposes nothing already applied.
External verification: replay on the maintainer's WSL checkout (Stage 7).
Release: seeded items, spec, commands and references merged to main.
Key Risks
High risk: duplicate matching. Wrong attaches hide requests. Validate in Stage 5 on the October 30 window. Mitigation: uncertain matches stay separate with a review note.
High risk: seed loses register evidence. Validate with a two-entry pilot (Stage 3) before the rest. Mitigation: items keep current fields and link to existing history.
Repeated headers. The
Key: valueparser rejects duplicate headers, so several sources can't each be a header. Resolve in Stage 1 by putting sources in the body under a fixed section.
Stage 1
Estimate: 0.12
Goal: item format and a check command.
Dependencies: none.
Expected changes: spec
docs/specs/feedback_item_record_v1.md(ID, Title, Kind, Workflow, Evidence, Estimate, Created headers; body with request text, Sources list, Done-when, Notes);FeedbackItemRepository::load(dir): list;FeedbackItemCheck::run(dir): list of problems;scripts/feedback.php check;./v3 feedbackdispatch; concept inventory entry.Verification approach: new
FeedbackItemCheckTest(valid file, malformed header, duplicate ID, source claimed twice, unknown kind or state) plus smoke set.Estimate details: driver: format decisions; uncertainty: low.
Risks or open questions: the duplicate-header limit, resolved by the body Sources list.
Canonical components/API contracts touched:
GenericTextRecordParser(reused);./v3dispatcher (extended).
Stage 2
Estimate: 0.06
Goal: generated index of open items.
Dependencies: Stage 1.
Expected changes:
scripts/feedback.php indexwritesdocs/feedback/README.mdgrouped by kind and workflow state, with a "generated; do not edit" line; atomic write.Verification approach: index test (grouping, stable order, unchanged output on rerun).
Estimate details: driver: layout; uncertainty: low.
Risks or open questions: none.
Canonical components/API contracts touched: Stage 1 repository.
Stage 3
Estimate: 0.06
Goal: pilot migration of two register entries (F01 with investigation history, one bug).
Dependencies: Stage 1.
Expected changes: two item files; register sections link to them.
Verification approach: check passes; side-by-side review that every source, state and evidence link survives.
Estimate details: driver: deciding what stays in the item vs linked history; uncertainty: medium.
Risks or open questions:
Impact: lost delivery evidence.
Early warning / validation: the pilot review.
Mitigation: adjust the spec before Stage 4.
Canonical components/API contracts touched: item spec.
Stage 4
Estimate: 0.08
Goal: migrate the remaining 15 register entries; retire the register as authority.
Dependencies: Stage 3.
Expected changes: 15 item files; register gets a superseded note pointing at the index;
production_feedback_management.mdpoints at items and keeps ID and state rules.Verification approach: check passes; script comparison of register IDs and source links against item files.
Estimate details: driver: volume; uncertainty: low.
Risks or open questions: none beyond Stage 3.
Canonical components/API contracts touched: production feedback management reference.
Stage 5
Estimate: 0.15
Goal: seed from the October 30 summary.
Dependencies: Stage 4.
Expected changes: proposals for all 97 catalogued rows (create or attach to an existing item); item files written after maintainer review; 10-18 and 10-21 summaries listed as unreconciled in the index.
Verification approach: script check that every source link in the summary appears in exactly one item; check passes; maintainer reviews the attach list.
Estimate details: driver: matching judgment across 97 rows; uncertainty: medium.
Risks or open questions:
Impact: wrong merges.
Early warning / validation: the attach list shown before writing.
Mitigation: separate items with a review note when unsure.
Canonical components/API contracts touched: item spec; check command.
Stage 6
Estimate: 0.08
Goal: triage procedure for new imports, in a home for agent instructions.
Dependencies: Stage 5.
Expected changes: new
docs/agents/folder for instructions agents follow when working on the project (separate fromprompts/, which the application loads at runtime);docs/agents/README.mdindex;docs/agents/feedback_triage.md, the procedure (read imported posts in a window, match against items, present create/attach/skip proposals with skip reasons, then write and index);zenmemes_feedback_automation_checklist.mdmarked superseded;minimal_feedback_triage.mdandproduction_feedback_management.mdlink to it; oneAGENTS.mdline pointing to thedocs/agents/index.Verification approach: dry run on a short window already covered by Stage 5 proposes no new items; links resolve.
Estimate details: driver: wording the matching rules; uncertainty: low.
Risks or open questions: agents may still treat runtime
prompts/as the place for instructions; the README states the difference in one line.Canonical components/API contracts touched: triage and management references;
AGENTS.md.
Stage 7
Estimate: 0.05
Goal: acceptance on the maintainer's WSL checkout.
Dependencies: Stage 6.
Expected changes: none planned; fixes only if the replay fails.
Verification approach: maintainer runs import, triage since 2026-11-01, check and index; the two 2026-11-03 "summary field" threads become one item with two sources; a rerun proposes nothing. Evidence recorded in Step 4.
Estimate details: driver: real data on the real machine; uncertainty: medium (site reachability, as seen in the 2026-11-04 sweep).
Risks or open questions: if the import fails, record it unverified rather than substituting another environment.
Canonical components/API contracts touched: none new.
Enhancement Requests
A place for prompts and instructions (raised 2026-11-04). Disposition:
docs/agents/is created in Stage 6 with the triage procedure. Moving existing development prompts (docs/reference/ui_copy_cleanup_prompt.md,docs/plans/ui_redesign/plan_prompt.md) there is a separate small item; runtimeprompts/stays where the application expects it.
Study Snapshots
2026-11-04; scope v1; starting revision 81837cf; reference R1 not re-verified in this session. Claude, single exposed rater. Earlier snapshots: Step 1 0.55, Step 2 0.60 (preserved there).
Step 3 handoff: 0.60 projected total. Revised 2026-11-04 for the
docs/agents/location (Stage 6 0.07 → 0.08); cycle projection unchanged. Stage values are annotations, not summed. Not hours; no implementation or approval implied.
Status: Approved Step 3 (2026-11-04).
