📊 ROADMAP DOCUMENTS - WHICH ONE TO USE?

Quick Reference Table

Document Purpose Status Use When Use For
ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md 🎯 ACTUAL WORK ✅ CURRENT NOW Planning sprints, daily tasks, accurate estimates
ROADMAP_V2_PRO.md 📚 REFERENCE ⚠️ DEPRECATED Rarely Historical context, understanding why decisions were made
SENIOR_AUDIT_REPORT.md 🔍 ANALYSIS ✅ CURRENT Planning Understanding architecture debt, test coverage, gaps
ONE_TRUTH.md 📋 SUMMARY ✅ CURRENT Stakeholders 5-minute executive summary of where we are

The Problem: Multiple Roadmaps Exist

ROADMAP_V2_PRO.md (DEPRECATED)

❌ DO NOT USE FOR ACTUAL WORK - Too theoretical

Content:

  • 7300+ lines of detailed implementation specs
  • 10 REFACTORs (1-10) with full DoD
  • 10 COMMITs detailed plans
  • Phases 0-7 with architecture
  • Suggests 234h of work

Problem:

  • Duplicates code that already exists

    • REFACTOR-1 (Extract ErrorClassifier) ✅ ALREADY DONE
    • REFACTOR-2 (Decompose resilience.ts) ✅ ALREADY DONE
    • REFACTOR-3 (AdapterExecutionStrategy) ✅ ALREADY DONE
    • etc...

  • Proposes phases as "not started" when 60% done

    • Says "Phase 0: AGENTS.md - 0%" but it exists
    • Says "Phase 1: Core - 0%" but 85% is done
    • Creates false sense of "start from zero"

  • Suggests 234h total but 110h remains

    • Counts 410h already done
    • Suggests starting over instead of finishing

When to use: Historical reference only (how we planned to get here)

ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md (CURRENT - USE THIS!)

✅ THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED

Content:

  • Status table: what's done, what's left
  • Actual effort breakdown (410h done vs 110h remaining)
  • 40h to MVP (2 weeks)
  • 54h to Full V2.0 (1.5 weeks)
  • Prioritized week-by-week plan
  • Daily execution tasks

Advantages:

  • ✅ Reality-based (matches actual code)
  • ✅ Realistic estimates (110h left, not 234h)
  • ✅ Executable roadmap (daily tasks)
  • ✅ No duplicated work
  • ✅ Clear MVP vs full definition

When to use: ALWAYS (sprint planning, daily standup, estimates)

SENIOR_AUDIT_REPORT.md (ANALYSIS - SUPPLEMENTARY)

📊 Detailed architecture analysis

Content:

  • Architecture rating: 7.2/10
  • What works (Orchestrator, tests, etc.)
  • What's missing (state machine integration, etc.)
  • Code quality assessment per module
  • Recommended actions

When to use: Understanding "why" - architecture decisions, tech debt, quality metrics

ONE_TRUTH.md (SUMMARY - STAKEHOLDERS)

📋 5-minute executive summary

Content:

  • 41% → 60% progress (corrected)
  • What works, what doesn't
  • Timeline: 1.5 weeks to release
  • Confidence: 8/10
  • Sign-off checklist

When to use: Talking to stakeholders, approvals, quick updates

Key Differences Explained

ROADMAP_V2_PRO Says:

"Phase 1: Core Infrastructure (Days 3-7) - 40h

  • Tool Manager (6h)
  • Target Manager (6h)
  • File Discovery (6h)
  • Adapter Framework (6h)
  • Actionlint Adapter (6h)
  • ..."

ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL Says:

"Tool Manager ✅ WDROŻONY - 75% (15h done, 5h to complete)"

"File Discovery ✅ WDROŻONY - 80% (12h done, 3h to complete)"

The difference:

  • V2_PRO: "Here's how to build it (45h)"
  • V2_ACTUAL: "It's 80% built, finish it in 3h"

Decision Tree: Which Roadmap?

Am I planning what to do?
├─ YES → Use ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md ✅
├─ (It has prioritized 54h plan)
│
└─ NO, I want to understand...
   ├─ Architecture/debt? → SENIOR_AUDIT_REPORT.md
   ├─ High-level status? → ONE_TRUTH.md
   ├─ Historical context? → ROADMAP_V2_PRO.md (reference only)

The Mistake That Was Made

  1. ✅ Audit completed: "60% done, 110h remains"
  2. ✅ Accurate roadmap needed: created ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md
  3. ❌ BUT ALSO: Updated ROADMAP_V2_PRO.md with new content
  4. ❌ RESULT: Same file now has 7300 lines + header saying "use this"
  5. ❌ CONFUSION: Looks like "official roadmap" but it's 234h when only 110h remains

Fix:

  • ✅ Created ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md (correct)
  • ✅ Updated ROADMAP_V2_PRO.md header (use THIS instead)
  • ✅ Created this comparison doc

Recommended Reading Order

For Team Members (1 hour)

  1. ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md (20 min)

    • Understand current status
    • See this week's priorities

  2. SENIOR_AUDIT_REPORT.md (20 min)

    • Executive summary section
    • Key findings

  3. ONE_TRUTH.md (10 min)

    • Quick facts
    • Timeline confirmation

For Stakeholders (15 min)

  1. ONE_TRUTH.md (5 min)

    • What we're doing

  2. ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md "WEEK 1" section (10 min)

    • What this week looks like

For Architecture Decisions (30 min)

  1. SENIOR_AUDIT_REPORT.md (25 min)

    • Full architecture analysis

  2. ROADMAP_V2_ACTUAL.md "What Brakuje" (5 min)

    • Context on priorities

What's Actually Implemented (Don't Redo!)

✅ These are DONE - don't waste time on them:

  • Orchestrator (545 lines, DIP compliant)
  • Profiles (273 lines, solo/dev/team hierarchy)
  • Adapters (actionlint, zizmor, gitleaks)
  • Contract + Schemas (inheritance, validation)
  • File Discovery (git, staged, changed, all modes)
  • Reporting (text, json, github formats)
  • Tool Detection (Windows + Linux support)
  • Circuit Breaker (TTL cleanup, stats)
  • Retry (exponential backoff, strategies)
  • Tests (1105/1140 passing, 97%)

What's NOT Done (Need to Do)

⚠️ These MUST be completed:

  1. State Machine Integration (8h)

    • ExecutionContext exists, not used by Orchestrator
    • Need to emit state transitions in run() method

  2. Guardian CLI < 2s (8h)

    • doctor.ts is stub
    • dev-fast profile undefined
    • Need to benchmark pre-commit workflow

  3. Fix Flaky Tests (3h)

    • 4 timeout tests in filediscovery-real-git.test.ts
    • Need to mock git or increase timeout

Remaining work: 40h MVP, 54h Full V2.0

Important: Don't Start from Zero!

❌ WRONG:

"Let's follow ROADMAP_V2_PRO phases 1-7 (234h)"

Expected: 7 weeks of work
Actual: Already 60% done!

✅ RIGHT:

"Finish state machine integration (8h) + Guardian CLI (8h) for MVP"

Expected: 1-2 weeks
Actual: Matches our capacity
