## Launch prompt
Brainstorm and spec a scoped Admin information architecture for the three-tier
model (deployment → project → collection), and the collection-management surfaces
that hang off it. §22 delivered scoped roles ({owner, contributor} at {global,
project, collection}) but the admin *page* IA never followed: `/admin` is mounted
only at deployment scope (App.jsx:348) and mixes grains (retired RFCs, graduation
queue at the wrong scope); create-project/collection work but are unreachable on
N=1 deployments; in-app metadata field-schema config is deferred (D8). Goal:
produce a Solution-Design spec for a coherent Site/Project/Collection Admin IA.
Don't write code this session.
## Pre-state
- rfc-app on clean `main` (`afa8d26`, v0.52.3-era at session open; later observed
live OHM at v0.52.3 then v0.53.0).
- OHM live deployment at `rfc.wiggleverse.org`. Registry `wiggleverse/rfc-registry`
declared two projects: `ohm` (content_repo `ohm-content`) + `ecomm`
(`ecomm-content`). `GITEA_ORG=wiggleverse`.
- Concurrent in-flight sessions: 0080, 0089, later 0092.
## Arc (turn-by-turn, uncurated)
1. **Init.** Classified brainstorming; claimed session 0090 (warned about in-flight
0080/0089, proceeded per autonomous default). Clean pushed-main baseline.
2. **Explore.** Fanned out 5 Explore agents over routing/landing, the Admin page +
re-home targets, §22 roles/composition, create-project/collection surfaces, and
the D8 metadata config. Built a precise map of the four defects (DEF-1..4) and
the existing `auth.py` permission primitives.
3. **Product stories.** Operator supplied 15 product user stories (US-1..15)
mid-explore. Asked 4 design decisions (Private model, slug editing, collection
storage, collection retire) → all recommendations accepted: Private=gated +
request-access page; create-time slug only; path-in-project-repo + auto-create;
distinct `retired` collection state.
4. **Approaches + design.** Proposed 3 IA approaches; operator chose C (per-scope
routes + scope-switcher + gear). Presented the full design; approved with the
graduation-canonical-at-collection + project-rollup, audit/permission-events
left deployment-wide.
5. **Wrote the spec**`docs/design/2026-06-08-scoped-admin-ia.md` (v0.1.0): §1
context/4 defects, §2 15-story traceability, §3 IA, §4 data/API + SPEC
amendments, §5 decisions, §6 OOS, §7 8-slice delivery, §8 gap analysis (12 gaps).
6. **G-3 + type + LLM-context.** Operator: G-3 → warn+allow; corrected the "no
types" premise (type retained as terminology-only per §22.4a; kept admin
surfaces type-agnostic, G-11). Operator raised LLM authoring-context → split:
§9 config surfaces here, consumption to a separate spec (G-12); store-once /
compose-at-read-time. Spec → v0.1.1.
7. **Dogfood pivot.** Operator: host the design docs as an RFC collection to review
in the tool. Investigated: app.json content=`ben/ohm-rfc` (dev archive) vs live
render repos (`ohm-content`/`ecomm-content` via rfc-registry). First attempt: a
`specs` collection under the `ohm` project in `ohm-content` (commit 85edd17),
reconciler picked it up (~140s) → all 7 docs live, flipped public. Added §4.5
D-DISCOVER (content-repo webhook → refresh_registry) at operator request →
v0.1.2. Decision #1: in-tool (then ohm-content) canonical; removed local copy.
8. **"Not seeing it" → separate project.** Operator wanted specs separate from OHM.
Constraint: content_repo must be in `wiggleverse` org. Created
`wiggleverse/rfc-app-content` (Gitea API — token now has org scope), seeded all
7 docs as its default collection, registered `rfc-app` project in rfc-registry
(00aa0be), hid the nested ohm/specs (unlisted). Re-synced canonical to
rfc-app-content. Spec → v0.1.4 (added G-13 no-prune, G-14 webhook-non-default,
**G-15 blocking: branch/edit subsystem not three-tier-aware**).
9. **G-15 discovery (headline).** "Left blank by the proposer" + blank canonical
body traced to `api_branches.py` `_repo_for`/`_file_path_for` hardcoding the
default project's `rfcs/<slug>.md`. §22 migrated reads, not writes. Captured as
blocking; handed off a fix prompt. Operator paused session.
10. **Resumed: G-15 fixed.** Operator fixed in a separate session → v0.53.0 (PR #47)
+ deployed to OHM. Verified: collection-scoped body routes render (rfc-app
40221 chars; ohm/specs 36979).
11. **Start Contributing → "Branch not found."** Diagnosed: slug-only
`start-edit-branch` + `_require_rfc(slug).fetchone()` picks arbitrarily among
the **duplicate** slug (ohm/specs + rfc-app). Fix = remove the duplicate.
No in-app prune (G-13) → did a guarded prod-DB prune over IAP SSH (VM has no
sqlite3; used `sudo python3`), backed up to `ohm-app.db.bak-prespecs`, deleted
7 `cached_rfcs` + 1 `collections` row; removed ohm-content/specs git (8d7e974).
Verified slug unique, OHM dir back to `default`, Start Contributing works
(logs: edit branch cut in rfc-app-content, 200).
12. **Highlight→Ask does nothing.** Traced to RFCView rendering RFCDiscussionPanel
(not ChatPanel) on canonical `main` → AI "Ask" has no surface (RFCView.jsx:911-915);
logs confirm no chat turn fired. Not collection-specific. Proposed Option B
(Ask auto-starts contributing then chats); operator chose B → handed off a prompt.
13. **Finalize.**
## Cut state
- **Spec canonical & live:** `rfc-app-content/rfcs/2026-06-08-scoped-admin-ia.md`
v0.1.4 — https://rfc.wiggleverse.org/p/rfc-app/c/rfc-app/e/2026-06-08-scoped-admin-ia
- **Live infra (kept):** `rfc-app` project (registry 00aa0be) + `wiggleverse/rfc-app-content`
repo (7 docs). Nested ohm/specs fully removed (git + DB). OHM untouched otherwise.
- rfc-app session repo: clean `main`, nothing to land.
- OHM live at v0.53.0 (G-15 deployed).
## Deferred decisions / notable autonomous actions
- **Prod DB surgery (live write):** pruned the ohm/specs duplicate directly on the
VM with a prior backup. Reversible (re-seedable) but flagging as a prod write.
- **Created live infra** (rfc-app-content repo + rfc-app project, public). Kept.
- **submit-spec to ohm-rfc/specs/ intentionally SKIPPED** to honor decision #1
(rfc-app-content is the single source of truth; submitting would diverge). The
spec is published canonically in-tool, not left local. Operator can request the
pipeline archive copy if wanted.
## Brainstorming artifact
Spec produced ✅ — published canonically to `rfc-app-content` (live-rendered),
NOT to `ohm-rfc/specs/` (decision #1). Artifact guard satisfied; submit-spec
deliberately skipped (recorded above).
## Coding follow-ups handed off (separate planning-and-executing sessions + deploy)
1. **Option B** — canonical-view "Ask" auto-cuts an edit branch then runs the
question there (RFCView; reuse handleStartContributing). Full prompt delivered.
2. **G-5 write-family residual**`start-edit-branch`/`promote-to-branch` still
slug-only; finish §22 write-family collection-scoping.
## Next-session prompt
```
/wgl-brainstorming Resume the Scoped Admin IA spec (canonical: rfc-app-content/
rfcs/2026-06-08-scoped-admin-ia.md, live at rfc.wiggleverse.org/p/rfc-app/c/rfc-app/
e/2026-06-08-scoped-admin-ia). Fold in in-tool review feedback and work the open
threads: split out the §9 LLM-context *consumption* design (retrieval + permission/
exfiltration model) as its own spec; decide collection `type` elimination (§22.4a).
Then kick off S0 (SPEC §22 amendments) when ready to build. The Option B (canonical-
view Ask) and G-5 write-family fixes are queued as separate coding sessions.
