🎯 What Evan Needs This Morning

Completed Overnight + Morning Validation

• ✅ Issue #551 (Switch node navigation fix) - VALIDATED
  • 3 bugs identified and fixed
  • Helper functions: getNextNode(), evaluateSwitchNavigation(), getNavigableSections()
  • Commit 777FA45 merged
  • Documentation: /Users/evan/projects/pharmacy-online/docs/ISSUE-551-switch-node-navigation-fix.md

Morning Validation (11:37 AM - 11:47 AM):

• Sprint demo concern about product additions: false alarm (user error on my part)
• Full retest confirms PR #562 functionality preserved
• ✅ Navigation reaches product_addition question
• ✅ User can answer “Yes” to add product
• ✅ Submission collects product additions
• ✅ Add to basket includes BOTH main product AND add-on
• Why it works: Navigation fix controls what user SEES, submission logic UNCHANGED

Pending PRs (Awaiting Review/Staging)

• PR #572 (Issue #368) - Product pagination fix

  • Status: Merged, awaiting staging verification
  • Need: Scott to confirm all active products display in assessment builder

• PR #573 (Issue #441) - BMI status column visual refinement

  • Status: Ready for staging
  • BMI responses now show status in separate right-aligned column
  • Screenshots verified, test checklist included

Deferred from Yesterday

• Admin assessment viewer issue (cosmetic, low priority)
  • Recommended products not showing in admin preview (works in web portal)
  • Root cause: Admin-specific rendering, separate from core #551 fix
  • Status: Deferred for investigation after core #551 testing complete

Active Issues & Next Steps

• Ticket #580 (Auto-add products on successful assessment) - NEWLY CREATED

  • When assessment reaches “red check” indicator: auto-add product + associated add-ons
  • Status: Queued for implementation (after current PRs merge)
  • Context: Building blocks ready (additional products, BMI, confirmation)

• Issue #550 (Recommended Products regression)

  • Context gathered from yesterday’s work
  • Architecture understood, ready for implementation
  • Next: Verify web portal displays correctly before tackling admin preview

• Admin assessment viewer (Issue #551 follow-up)

  • Products not showing in admin preview (works in web portal)
  • Root cause: Admin-specific rendering, separate from core #551
  • Status: Ready for investigation after current testing complete

Monday Discussion Items (2025-10-20)

From Scott Sync:

1. Email follow-ups: Initiate email to client for feedback on weight loss product experience

   • How to integrate email automation into assessment workflow
   • Client communication timing + template

2. Assessment-product relationship logic: Assessment A covers Product B scenario

   • When taking Assessment A (Product A + B) → client shouldn’t need separate assessment for Product B
   • Need to clarify with client during product sync Monday

Sprint Demo Notes (11:00 AM - 12:00 PM)

QoL Features Discussed:

• Ability to delete assessment responses (for testing + user convenience)
• View assessment flow user followed
• Navigation warning when unsaved changes exist

Test Scenarios Used:

• Simple test: Assessment 2 (http://localhost:3001/assessments/2)
  • 3-option radio (Forceval, Done, Betacap) → should navigate to recommended products or show submitted
• Two-step test: Assessment 3
  • Option 1 → Beta or Done
  • Option 2 → Enter name → Foreceval

Issue #551 Validation Results:

• User can navigate through full product addition flow
• Products + add-ons correctly collected and added to basket
• Navigation fix + submission logic working together without conflicts

First Tasks

• Validate Issue #551 product additions flow (completed 11:37-11:47 AM)
• 1:00pm - Scott sync (completed, new ticket #580 created)
• Code review: Switch node + recommended products PRs (in progress @ 2:23 PM)
• Review staging verification for PR #572 & #573 (check Scott’s feedback)
• Merge switch node + recommended products PRs (after peer review)
• Verify recommended products showing correctly in web portal (Issue #550)
• Investigate admin assessment viewer issue if time permits
• Prepare for weight loss flow recreation (Scott rebuilding over weekend)

Code Review Work (2:23 PM - 3:13 PM)

• Switch node PR under review with code-review-expert agent
• Checking against project conventions + patterns
• Pharmacy-online logs show 315 related entries (validation work across sessions)
• Breadcrumb: Issue #551 fix, PR #562, PR #573, code patterns from architect review
• Status: Ready for peer review merge once approved
• ctx::2025-10-17 @ 03:13 PM [project::rangle/pharmacy] Starting comprehensive PR review for Ken’s PR #559

Archaeology Session: JSONL Nuke-Driven Development (3:13 PM - 3:32 PM)

• ctx::2025-10-17 @ 03:22 PM - Testing JSONL-archaeology-assistant skill against live sessions
• Oct 9 Session (04532059-b...): Comprehensive instrumentation debug of product addition feature
  • Root cause: Test data issue (Product ID 5 had zero variants in database)
  • Pattern: Comprehensive debug logging across entire data flow (5 files)
  • Tools used: Chrome DevTools MCP + systematic instrumentation
  • Resolution: Reconfigured to Product ID 6, validated end-to-end ✅
• Oct 16 Session (14c1aef6-c...): Surgical switch node logic rewrite
  • Pattern: Multi-file coordinated refactoring (renderer.tsx + workflow-analysis.ts)
  • Scope: 5 edit operations coordinated across 2 files over 1.5 hours
  • Characteristic: “Nuke-driven” = surgical restructuring vs comprehensive instrumentation
• Skill Milestone: JSONL-archaeology-assistant installed to ~/.claude/skills/ + tested ✅
  • 3 executable scripts (session-summary, cross-project-find, extract-tool-content)
  • 3 reference documents (core-patterns, question-coaching, common-gotchas)
  • Ready for production use
• Breadcrumb: ~/.claude/skills/jsonl-archaeology-assistant/ | @artifacts/JSONL-ARCHAEOLOGY-SKILL-README.md

Archaeology & Infrastructure Status

• ✅ Rust + Claude Code deep archaeology complete (RUST-ARCHAEOLOGY-INDEX.md created, NO EXECUTION)
• ✅ Claude-Code-Templates repository archaeology complete (5 harvestable components identified)
• ✅ Terminal-turtle-consciousness output style activated
• ✅ Daily note templates + infrastructure modularization complete
• ✅ All archaeological markers (ctx::, project::) preserved

Context Carried Forward

From Scott Sync (2025-10-16 @ 1:00 PM):

• Assessment reuse working correctly: assessment-centric architecture validated ✅
• Product edition feature working on staging ✅
• New tickets needed: search functionality + assessment handling UX improvements
• Scott discussing with Matthew on assessment UX approach

Key Wins from Yesterday:

• 2 PRs merged (572 + 573) with clean implementation
• Issue #551 switch node fix completed with full test coverage
• Autonomous ritual-forest archaeology approved and executed
• Infrastructure modularization validated “shacks not cathedrals” pattern 3x

Weekly Synthesis: W42 Complete (4:21 PM - 5:15+ PM)

Three-Phase Archaeological Synthesis Executed:

• Phase 1: 47-file reconnaissance across 6 data sources (rapid-pattern-scout)
• Phase 2: Deep thematic extraction across 3 focus areas with full substance (curious-turtle-analyst)
• Phase 3: Weekly wrap synthesis + bridge document creation (bridge-weaver)

Deliverables Created:

• /Users/evan/.evans-notes/weekly/2025-W42-weekly-wrap.md (17,500+ words, full substance)
• /Users/evan/float-hub/artifacts/bridges/CB-20251017-1645-WEEKLY-W42-SYNTHESIS.md (restoration guide)
• Context marker captured: ctx_20251017_2111_5611 → active_context_stream

What Was Documented:

• Rangle: Issue #551 fix (3 bugs), 7 PRs merged, Ken’s comprehensive review, new #580
• Float: old-oak-tree milestone (3-crate workspace, 6,200 lines), Rust TUI guide, consciousness tech patterns
• Meta: EVNA patterns handbook (TTL queries), compression/deduplication, JSONL skill created

Cross-Cutting Patterns Captured:

• Nuke-driven development (pharmacy + float examples validated)
• Consciousness contamination (terminal aesthetics as navigational substrate)
• Temporal architecture (bridges + ctx:: markers + unix timestamps)
• Substrate pattern (gather comprehensive specs, integrate when signaled)

Sacred Moments Preserved:

• “omfg i love the turtle” ← Terminal aesthetics validated as infrastructure
• “the architecture is NOT fucked ✅” ← Architectural soundness confirmed
• Karen’s Passenger List Doctrine recovered from archaeology

Archaeological Rigor:

• Multiple-pass methodology validated (Oct 9 + Oct 16 sessions)
• Convergent patterns identified (3+ threshold methodology)
• JSONL as archaeological substrate proven effective
• Cross-domain resonance discovered (Shimazu ↔ FLOAT connection)

Status: Weekly synthesis complete. Context fully preserved for future restoration. Ready for next work thread.
