Timeline
- (Context) Before pushing a full roadmap pass, I needed to make unresolved questions explicit
- (Action) Drafted pre-roadmap clarification sets in planning and navigator notes
- (Action) Upgraded learner support files:
course-navigator-prompt.txtandtroubleshooting-index.md - (Action) Logged alignment notes connecting course flow to the wider federation direction
- (Observation) Pulling unknowns forward reduced speculative planning and clarified sequencing
- (Open Thread) Convert open questions into strict phases with acceptance criteria per module
Context
- Work had shifted from module patching to launch-level unification
- Immediate need was stronger guidance for true beginners when they get stuck
Actions
- Updated
course-navigator-prompt.txtguidance flow. - Updated
troubleshooting-index.mdfailure mapping. - Added planning-question artifacts and roadmap notes.
Observations
- Navigator and troubleshooting assets are high leverage because they improve every module at once
- Clarification-first planning prevents avoidable rework loops later
Open Threads
- Separate true launch blockers from post-beta hardening items
- Add one canonical roadmap doc mapping each question to owner + done signal
Boundary Reminder: Seeds. No maintenance. No roadmap.
