josh 39563f6934 docs(01): plan phase 1 — 7 plans across 3 waves, verified after 1 revision
Wave 1: Plan 01 (scaffold + test infra)
Wave 2: Plans 02 (eslint firewall), 03 (save layer), 04 (content pipeline),
        05 (asset provenance — autonomous:false human-curate checkpoint),
        06 (doctrine docs)
Wave 3: Plan 07 (CI workflow)

All 16 Phase-1 REQ-IDs covered. Plan-checker found 4 blockers + 6 warnings
on first pass; revision iteration 1 landed all 10 fixes; iteration 2
returned VERIFICATION PASSED. Two orchestrator judgment calls during
revision: (1) implement CORE-04 localStorage fallback in Phase 1 (the
literal requirement and ROADMAP success criterion #2 both call for it),
(2) reclassify STRY-09 as vacuously satisfied in Phase 1.

Project State

Project Reference

See: .planning/PROJECT.md (updated 2026-05-08)

Core value: Every idle mechanic must function as a metaphor that the player absorbs without being told. When economy and meaning conflict, meaning wins. Current focus: Phase 1 — Foundations & Doctrine

Current Position

Phase: 1 of 8 (Foundations & Doctrine) Plan: 0 of 7 in current phase Status: Planned — ready for /gsd-execute-phase 1 Last activity: 2026-05-08 — Phase 1 planning complete. RESEARCH.md → 7 plans across 3 waves → plan-checker found 4 blockers + 6 warnings → revision iteration 1 → VERIFICATION PASSED. Orchestrator authorized two judgment calls during revision: (1) implement CORE-04 localStorage fallback in Phase 1 (~30 LoC + 1 test) rather than defer (the literal requirement and ROADMAP success criterion #2 both call for it); (2) reclassify STRY-09 as vacuously satisfied in Phase 1 (no source code exists yet to externalize from).

Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table. Recent decisions affecting current work:

  • Phase 1 will land all retrofit-hostile foundations (versioned saves, content/asset pipelines, sim/render firewall, anti-FOMO doctrine, Season 7 end-state design) before any feature code — research from all four researchers converged on this ordering.
  • Phase 2 will ship Season 1 as a complete vertical slice that could plausibly ship as a free standalone prologue ahead of Seasons 2-7, defending against the 7-Season scope risk.
  • Phases 4-7 deliver the remaining six Seasons in mechanic-introducing pairs (Season 2 alone with prestige, Seasons 3-4, Seasons 5-6, Season 7 alone) — at most one new mechanic per Season per the scope-defense doctrine.

Pending Todos

None yet.

Blockers/Concerns

Carry-forward banner concerns from research:

  • 7-Season scope risk is the project's biggest risk; defended by the standalone-Season-1 escape hatch (Phase 2) and the one-mechanic-per-Season cap.
  • Story ends but the loop doesn't — Season 7 end-state design must land in Phase 1 (PIPE-05); finite Roothold ceiling enforced in Phase 4 (SEAS-04); credits/coda rest-state in Phase 7 (SEAS-10).
  • AI asset style drift — provenance + curation + locked north-star reference set must land in Phase 1 (AEST-08, AEST-09, PIPE-03) before any production-volume asset generation in Phase 5+; visual regression testing in Phase 8 (PIPE-04).

Session Continuity

Last session: 2026-05-08 Stopped at: Phase 1 planning verified and ready for execution. Wave 1 = Plan 01 (scaffold + test infra). Wave 2 = Plans 0206 (firewall, save layer, content pipeline, asset provenance, doctrine docs) in parallel; Plan 05 has a human-curate checkpoint (autonomous: false) for the 1020 north-star reference set with Path A/B/C fallbacks. Wave 3 = Plan 07 (CI workflow).
