Session 0069.0 — Transcript

App: dev-claude-plugin Start: 2026-06-11T21-26 (PST) End: 2026-06-11T21-55 (PST) Type: brainstorming Posture: careful Claude-Session: 57423a78-62e5-4a30-b412-72623567f409 Anchor: #95 (primary), #93 (co-anchor, absorbed) Outcome: DESIGNED the design-handoff flow → specs/2026-06-11-design-handoff-design.md (status: proposed)

Launch prompt

/goal brainstorm #93+#95

Pre-state

• Plugin shipped 0.52.0, pin LIVE at 0.52.0. The 0056 triage routed #93+#95 to ONE brainstorming session covering both (the stored Next /goal).
• #93 (type/feature): UX-involving slices need a required design reference in the Solution Design (into *-content/ui/designs) + an easy backfill gesture.
• #95 (type/feature): convention + tooling to attach per-slice Claude Design handoffs to *-content and link them from the tracking issue; its amendment concretizes the wgl-design-handoff (zip, ticket#) verb absorbing #93.
• Related/unbuilt: #99 (Gitea-workflow-engine epic — A3 graduation files the "UI Designs for #N" ticket + blocked-by wiring); engineering#32 (org-wide design-system home, in-flight session 0009).
• Live concurrent session 0065 (brainstorming #102), content checkout on its branch.

Arc (turn by turn)

1. Gate + init. Classified /goal brainstorm #93+#95 → brainstorming; invoked wgl-brainstorming. Claimed session 0069 (--type brainstorming → > Posture: careful). Read both anchors + the dependency web (#99 amendment, engineering#32). Eligibility: both type/feature → ELIGIBLE (R1). Peek showed 0065 live concurrent → mandatory content-repo worktree session-0069 off origin/main (canonical content checkout was on 0065's branch). Seeded the placeholder ## Plan with anchors + intent.
2. Technical grounding. Explore agent mapped the code surfaces: submit-spec.sh (idempotent re-submit), wgl-capture/gitea-api.sh (issue mutations — but PATCH {body} and Gitea blocked-by deps are UNUSED today), planning-side orientation (reads anchor, no design lookup yet), resolve-app.py (CONTENT_*).
3. Decision checkpoints (careful, held under /goal). Posed the four consequential forks via AskUserQuestion. Operator declined twice to "clarify," then directed: "Can you examine existing design packs to determine? … I just ask Claude Design to design based on the spec and it spits out a zip."
4. Empirical grounding. Inspected real exports in ~/Downloads (Ecomm Wireframes-handoff*.zip, SD-0002-…zip, Wiggleverse Design System.zip). Findings: handoff README addressed "CODING AGENTS: READ THIS FIRST" (built for the downstream coding agent = our consumer); two zip shapes (single-top-dir vs rootless → normalize); re-export overwrites (idempotent replace); every handoff embeds ~1.3MB _ds/ design-system snapshot (engineering#32's artifact); zip names unreliable as keys. This settled storage AND surfaced the _ds/ fork.
5. Decisions agreed (grounded AskUserQuestion): D2 standalone-core + graceful #99; D3 ui/designs/<issue#>-<slug>/ keyed by ticket #, unpacked+normalized; D1 keep _ds/ embedded for now (strip deferred to engineering#32); D4 per-slice **Design:** in §7.2; D5 **Designs:** issue body line via a new upsert.
6. Draft whole + review whole. Wrote the full Solution Design in one pass to the content worktree, committed + pushed to session-0069, handed over the rendered Gitea URL. Operator reviewed → "Approve — finalize & submit."
7. Finalize. Content PR #4 (session-0069→main) merged + branch deleted; submit-spec.sh --status proposed stamped frontmatter (d4da2ac); worktree torn down, local branch deleted. No plugin change → no bump, pin stays 0.52.0. Memory + this transcript.

Deferred decisions

None — this was a careful brainstorming session; every consequential decision was an operator checkpoint (D1–D5 in the spec's §13).

Cut state

• Content repo main: specs/2026-06-11-design-handoff-design.md present, status: proposed (d4da2ac). PR #4 merged, session-0069 branch deleted (remote + local). Worktree removed.
• Plugin repo: untouched (only the pre-existing untracked docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-09-wgl-capture-mvp-design.pdf remains — not this session's; left as-is). No version bump; pin LIVE 0.52.0 (no gap).
• Other content worktrees (session-0065 canonical, session-0068) left intact — they belong to other sessions.

Operator plate (open threads)

• Graduate the design-handoff spec (currently proposed) when reviewed.
• Then plan-and-execute it: SLICE-1 first (the **Design:** field into central engineering GUIDE/TEMPLATE — doc-first, cross-repo), then SLICE-2→5.
• Coordinate engineering#32 (the _ds/ strip optimization, §13 Q1) and #99 (the "UI Designs for #N" ticket/dependency shape, §13 Q2).

Next-session prompt

/goal graduate then plan-and-execute the design-handoff spec (#95/#93,
specs/2026-06-11-design-handoff-design.md) — SLICE-1 first: the **Design:** field
into engineering solution-design GUIDE.md + TEMPLATE.md (doc-first, cross-repo),
then the wgl-design-handoff verb + gitea-api body-upsert + planning-side awareness.
