The session gate classified the opener; routed first to `wgl-session-none` (the initial ask was just "analyze this transcript"), then — when the work became session-worthy — re-gated mid-session to `wgl-brainstorming`, claiming **0017**. No `capture` session type existed (this session is why it's now proposed). + +## Turn-by-turn arc + +- **Analyze the transcript → issues.** Operator pasted a long recorded conversation (Ben/Hassan/Laura re: a thrift+adult-toys shop, Facebook-album commerce, an e-com migration). Broke it into 8 prioritised asks. Filing needed the Gitea **issue scope** on the admin token — the keychain token was `write:repository` only → labels/issues 403'd. Operator re-scoped the PAT (issue scope) over `wgl-gitea-token-git.wiggleverse.org`. Then created labels `priority/P0..P3` + issues **#7–#14**. +- **Admin MVP for #8 (greenfield).** Operator: "assume nothing done; map the user journey, smallest surface area." Q&A settled: flat one-product=one-SKU (kits = a SKU with a BOM, deferred); images via **URL-in-CSV** (importer fetches → stores → attaches); **upsert by SKU** + per-row report; **full web admin slice**; **async job + status page**. Built the journey + capability units → Gitea **Epic #8** + units **#15–#22**, milestone "Admin Import MVP (#8)", textual dependency cross-refs (native Gitea dependency API 404'd — repo "Enable dependencies" setting is off, not API-togglable). +- **Pivot to process.** Operator: this issue-granularity is the right capture unit; add a **Capture phase** to the plugin mapping to our eng process; **issues become the input to specs** (not BDD objects). Long collaborative design across many turns: + - Issue template = the **business lens** of the Solution Design. + - Agile size taxonomy **Epic/Feature/Story/Task**; **Feature = the unit = smallest vertical valuable increment = one spec**; standalone Story/Task issues are one-offs. + - **Rolling-wave JIT decomposition**: Epic→next Feature carved at triage, one at a time. + - **Acceptance gate**: only `triaged:accepted` issues feed brainstorming. + - **WSJF** (rejected RICE — Reach meaningless at our scale), in-body + coarse P0–P3 labels. + - Confirmed against superpowers: it has **no roadmap concept** — tracks next-step via plan-doc checkboxes; "roadmap" was our invention. → **remove the roadmap**; Gitea board + per-Feature **slice checklists** are the tracker. **slice ↔ superpowers plan = 1-1; spec ↔ plans = N-1.** + - **Gitea-native loop**: "start the next coding session for Feature #xyz" → init reads next unchecked slice; finalize ticks it + files gaps as new issues + closes the Feature. Bookends become Gitea-aware. +- **RFC.** Wrote `engineering/proposals/capture-phase-and-gitea-native-flow.md`. Settled 4 open decisions (AskUserQuestion): §2.5 placement · WSJF in-body+P0–P3 · `wgl-capture` tracked-lite · render roadmap on demand. Shipped via worktree-from-`origin/main` → PR **#21** (merge `cbf6a4f`). Engineering checkout was parked on an unrelated feature branch — used a worktree to branch cleanly from `origin/main`, never touched it. +- **Template refinements (operator caught real gaps):** + - `Summary` → **Business Use Case(s) — BDD + acceptance** (gherkin, solution-agnostic, unhappy paths; folded the standalone Acceptance field in; business-vs-product-BDD note). + `Solution notes — prior thinking (non-binding)` + the brainstorming non-canon rule. → PR **#22** (merge `f279137`). + - `Problem/pain` must state **current cost**, not "it isn't built yet"; captured the systemic fix as a Feature. + **scope-control** motivation (sprawling specs / no dev control over the autonomous build — the dev-facing headline paired with radical transparency). → PR **#23**. +- **Plugin Capture backlog.** Found plugin repo = `wiggleverse/wiggleverse-dev-claude-plugin` (reuses `triaged:accepted`; legacy feedback `type:*` colon axis is separate from capture `type/*` slash axis). Created **Epic #24** (wgl-capture) + **Feature #25** (MVP: signal-in-session → typed, source-linked issues) + **Feature #26** (capture quality — high-value tickets). Created labels `type/epic|feature`, `priority/P0|P1`. +- **Closed engineering #19** (the original dogfood seed "wgl-capture gesture + brainstorming/roadmap integration") with a comment pointing to plugin #24/#25 and noting the roadmap-integration half resolved to *removing* the roadmap. + +### Wrong turns / friction (uncurated) +- Admin token lacked the issue scope → 403 on first label/issue attempts; operator re-scoped the PAT. +- First `#8` modelling was **wrong**: created it as an Epic with #15–#22 as eight standalone issues. The "Feature = smallest valuable increment" principle later showed these are *slices* of one Feature, not separate issues → flagged for restructure (NOT yet done). +- Native Gitea dependency links 404 (repo dependencies setting off) → fell back to textual Blocked-by/Blocks. +- A compound bash with a heredoc + `rm -rf` was denied → split into a Write-the-script + run pattern, and avoided `rm -rf`. +- Milestone-create script aborted on a `KeyError: 'number'` (Gitea milestone has `id`, not `number`) → made milestone lookup idempotent and re-ran. + +## Cut state (end of session) + +**engineering** (`wiggleverse/engineering`, `main`): +- `proposals/capture-phase-and-gitea-native-flow.md` — RFC, **merged**.
