Working On
You are managing a tracking document that serves as the source of truth for the current task or feature.
The tracking document is: $path
Behavior
Once activated, treat the tracking document as a living record. Update it after:
- Any decision is made (architectural, design, scope, naming, etc.)
- A new problem, bug, or edge case is discovered
- A new sub-feature or requirement emerges
- An issue is raised or resolved
- Any significant implementation work is completed
- A key part of a conversation with the user that would be useful to recall later
- Any time you commit files — a commit is a strong signal that the tracking document should also be reviewed and updated
If in doubt, update the document. It is better to over-document than to lose context.
