How to Execute This Roadmap

For Each Task:

  1. Open new Cline chat
You: "Can we please plan task X.X - [Task Name]?

Reference documents:
- COMPLETE_OUTLINE.md (for requirements)
- Existing chapters (for style/format)
- templates/ directory (if applicable)

Please create a plan following the outline."

  1. Review plan, adjust if needed

  2. Switch to Act Mode

You: "Looks good. Please proceed with Act Mode."

  1. Terminal approval as needed

  2. Review output

  • Check against outline
  • Verify examples work
  • Test any templates/prompts
  • Assign confidence score

  1. Document in task log (optional but helpful)

  2. Commit to Git

git add .
git commit -m "Complete task X.X: [Task Name]"
git push
  1. Move to next task

Confidence Scoring for This Project

Each chapter should score:

  • Critical chapters (5, 7, 8, 13, 17): 9/10 minimum

Meta-Irony Achievement Unlocked 🎯

You are now using:

  • ✅ MVP-first approach (core chapters first)
  • ✅ Documentation architecture (this roadmap)
  • ✅ Task breakdown (phases → tasks → subtasks)
  • ✅ Confidence scoring (defined for each task)
  • ✅ Cline workflow (new chat per task)
  • ✅ Quality gates (phase completion criteria)

To document:

  • The exact methodology you're using

Which will teach others:

  • How to use this methodology
