Production feedback management — Railspike debug log

2026-10-23T09:36:24Z — Step 1

Necessary/useful instructions

• step1_solution_assessment.md, Objective/Structure: comparing summary/index, repository register and tracker options made the migration boundary reviewable. Retain.

• RAILSPIKE.md, Experimental Effort Estimation: standing enrollment and exact-hash recovery preserved R1 and disclosed source exposure. Retain.

• step1_solution_assessment.md, Next: approval gate prevents treating a management discussion as authorization to migrate inventories. Retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

No supported findings.

Inapplicable instructions

• RAILSPIKE.md, Step 4 branch and stage-commit requirements: no implementation in this assessment; apply after approval.

Uncertain assessments

• One-page assessment plus required study metadata creates length tension; keep the comparison concise and consider a separate snapshot appendix if future revisions grow. No workflow changes made.

2026-10-23T09:45:50Z — Step 2

Necessary/useful instructions

• step2_feature_description.md, Delivery scope/Completion boundary: explicit allowed files, correction path and 16-entry coverage make this documentation-only outcome reviewable. Retain.

• step2_feature_description.md, Shared component inventory: reuse of minimal triage and historical inventories avoids competing current-status sources. Retain, interpreting surfaces proportionally for documentation.

• RAILSPIKE.md, Experimental Effort Estimation: reference revalidation and unchanged-scope reaffirmation preserve the original estimate without implying independent measurement. Retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

No supported findings.

Inapplicable instructions

• step2_feature_description.md, Known user or environment: production is feedback provenance, not a runtime target being changed; no production verification claimed.

• UI/API and runtime release checks are outside the documentation-only scope.

Uncertain assessments

• The one-page target competes with required scope, risk and study detail. Kept concise sections; no instruction changes made.

2026-10-23T09:51:06Z — Step 3

Necessary/useful instructions

• step3_development_plan_do.md, Completion Contract/Key Risks: explicit file/evidence boundaries prevent documentation migration from claiming production resolution. Retain.

• step3_development_plan_do.md, Stage requirements: bounded groups and verification dependencies expose stale LCD triage and shared-source identity risks before redirecting inventories. Retain.

• step3_development_plan_after.md, approval/commit gates: keeps implementation and ledger closeout out of unapproved planning commits. Retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

No supported findings.

Inapplicable instructions

• step3_development_plan_do.md, database/function signatures and runtime deployment replay: documentation-only scope changes neither runtime nor schema.

Uncertain assessments

• One-page target competes with required per-stage fields, exact file boundary and study metadata; concise stage bullets retain review essentials. No instruction changes proposed in this cycle.

2026-10-23T09:59:27Z — Step 4 handoff

Necessary/useful instructions

• step4_implementation_before.md, Planning Docs Commit Gate: planning 0c93edaa9 contains approved plans/debug log and index organization only; summary and ledger follow afterward. Retain.

• step4_implementation_do.md, Stage Boundary Protocol: four stages each include their summary update and applicable document checks before the next stage. Commits: 367bf407f, 3235e3ae2, 2bdb74b07, 4ccc9be4e. Retain.

• step4_implementation_after.md, Completion Contract/final checks: exact 16-item migration review plus 347 local-link/anchor checks demonstrate the documentation outcome while preserving production-evidence limits. Retain.

Redundant/unnecessary instructions

No supported findings.

Inapplicable instructions

• Runtime/UI/deployment/migration/release-environment checks: no runtime change or production-resolution claim; document scope/integrity/evidence checks apply instead.

Uncertain assessments

• External source URLs were retained byte-for-byte rather than freshly fetched; this verifies migration fidelity, not live source availability or complete import coverage. No production audit was part of the approved scope.

Handoff state

All four stages complete on docs/production-feedback-management; final delivery commit 4ccc9be4e, preceded by one planning and three stage commits. Projected total 0.35 retained; retrospective scope 0.35; maintainer study acceptance pending. Older-batch reconciliation remains follow-up; no deployment, merge or external messages performed. This final log-only commit records the completed-step report without amending history.
