2026-01-24 - Implement Dual-Window Navigator and update testing protocol

Timeline

  • (Context) Resumed Phase 2 Week 1 Day 3 to address context pollution risks in the starter kit.
  • (Action) Created Dual-Window Navigator protocol files defining the Dual-Window model.
  • (Action) Created ROADMAP.md to serve as the static course map linked to all modules.
  • (Action) Engineered Dual-Window Navigator protocol files as the strict non-coding guide prompt.
  • (Action) Updated START_HERE.md and how-to-use-this-kit.md to teach the Dual-Window workflow.
  • (Action) Moved Dual-Window Navigator protocol files to Navigator capability folders and registered it in kitforge-init.md as a core constraint.
  • (Action) Rewrote Dual-Window Navigator protocol files to include Navigator audits and strict language standards.
  • (Observation) The separation of “Navigator” and “Engine” resolves the conflict between teaching concepts and generating code.
  • (Open Thread) MJ to perform the Testing Sweep to validate the new workflow.

Boundary Reminder: Seeds. No maintenance. No roadmap.
