## Launch prompt

```
/wgl-capture: Distinguish between gitea issue types. Any solution designs require a gitea issue that does not have a label of "type epic" as input. Any implementation plans require either a solution design OR a gitea issue of type story, task, or bug. Encode the hierarchy and the requirement for how much up-front thinking must be done before something can be implemented.
```

## Plan

Turn the operator's framing of the issue-type hierarchy into one well-formed,
typed, source-linked Gitea issue on the plugin tracker, via the `wgl-capture`
flow (draft → review → file on approval).

## Pre-session state

Fresh `/clear` → `/wgl-capture`. Repo on branch `fix/capture-finalize-skip-memory`
with three untracked capture drafts already present (`publish-step.md`,
`resumable-capture.md` from session 0034) plus a stray pdf. Plugin is its own
content repo (`CONTENT_*` → `wiggleverse/wiggleverse-dev-claude-plugin`,
`CONTENT_SUBDIR='.'`). In-flight: session 0035 (another session, 23-31).

## Turn-by-turn arc

1. **Claim.** Gate satisfied by `/wgl-capture`. Resolved app → plugin is both
   content repo and tracker. Claimed tracked-lite transcript **0040** (warned on
   concurrent 0035, proceeded under the autonomous default).
2. **Assemble + reflect.** Worked purely from the operator's own thinking
   (BUC-3, no external signal). Reflected the hierarchy back as a table: epic →
   decompose; feature/story/task/bug eligible inputs; solution-designs need a
   non-epic input; implementation-plans need a design or a small (story/task/bug)
   issue; `type/bug` is not yet in the taxonomy and would be introduced.
3. **Size-challenge.** One coherent ask. `AskUserQuestion` on scope → operator
   chose **One Feature** (`type/feature`) with a decomposition checklist over
   Epic-with-children or draft-then-decide.
4. **Draft.** Authored `issues/issue-type-design-gates.md` — all eleven §5
   sections — into the content-repo working tree (INV-8, never committed). Made
   one explicit judgment call: a Feature is NOT one of the plan-eligible small
   types, so it must go through a Solution Design; flagged it for the operator.
5. **Approve → file.** Operator approved. Ensured the capture labels existed (all
   present), re-read the draft, and filed **#64** via `capture-issues.sh
   --body-file` (`type/feature` + `priority/P2`).
6. **Pivot.** Operator: "let's write the solution design for it" → this capture
   session's work was complete; the conversation transitioned to a separate
   brainstorming session (0041) to design #64.

## Cut state (end of session)

- **Filed:** plugin issue **#64 — "Scale required up-front design to issue type"**
  (`type/feature`, `priority/P2`):
  https://git.wiggleverse.org/wiggleverse/wiggleverse-dev-claude-plugin/issues/64
- **Uncommitted (INV-8):** `issues/issue-type-design-gates.md` in the content-repo
  working tree — the operator's to commit/publish or discard.
- No commits, no PR (correct for capture). Tracked-lite: no spec/plan artifact at
  finalize (INV-6).

## Deferred decisions

- Drafted the Feature as plan-ineligible-without-a-design (Feature ⇒ design first).
  Surfaced to the operator and confirmed during the downstream brainstorming
  session (0041, decision R3/D1).

## What lands on the operator's plate

- Commit or discard the uncommitted `issues/issue-type-design-gates.md` draft (plus
  the two older 0034 drafts sitting beside it).

## Prompt the operator can paste into the next session

(The capture pivoted straight into brainstorming 0041; see that transcript for the
forward handoff — implement the design as a planning-and-executing session.)
