Core Purpose:
code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode
Primary Users / Operators:
Thank you for contributing to LUMI (CardSorting.lumi) — the calm coding companion VS Code extension in the LUMI monorepo.
Canonical Architecture:
Thank you for contributing to LUMI (CardSorting.lumi) — the calm coding companion VS Code extension in the LUMI monorepo.
Canonical Workflows:
Preserve flows — verify with Playwright; CI: GitHub Actions.
Primary Runtime / Operational Center:
Workspace project root — ROADMAP.md lives beside source, not in plugin install trees.
What This Project Must Not Become:
Uncontrolled scope changes to LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions without a documented center of gravity.
Status: Coherent
Phase: checkpoint
Summary:
Bootstrap steering surface for LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions.
Why This Status:
- ROADMAP.md created from gathered evidence
- Schema established for long-horizon steering
Primary Risk:
Limited cross-session steering until Now/Next items connect to center of gravity.
Primary Opportunity:
Document LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions center of gravity before expanding scope.
code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode
Goal:
Replace remaining template phrases with project-specific facts for LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions.

Overall Code Soup Risk: Medium
Assessment:
Code soup risk: Low — see code_soup_pre_audit.
Assessment:
Runtime authority in repo manifests; ROADMAP.md stays in project workspace only.

Converge duplicate modules (mcp.ts) or document which path is canonical.
Decision:
Adopt ROADMAP.md at workspace root as the steering surface for LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions.
Reason:
Adopt ROADMAP.md as the long-horizon steering surface for LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions.
Impact:
Route LUMI — code --install-extension CardSorting.lumi-vscode — Playwright · GitHub Actions strategic work through Now/Next/Later — max 5 Now items.
Follow-up:
Run roadmap checkpoints after meaningful direction changes.
Date: 2026-06-30
Checkpoint Summary:
Threading the completion spine thesis through 6 existing docs so it's legible at every reading level. Updated philosophy, whitepaper, companion-brief, architecture/current, decision-engine, and migration docs with the four-stage spine (snapshot → decision → action contract → action guard), the before/after failure chain, and the thesis: "The agent receives a command, not a prose explanation to interpret."
Moved:
- None
Added:
- "The spine" section to
docs/completion-lifecycle-decision-engine.md - Spine thesis to
docs/papers/philosophy.md§ VI - Four-stage table + before/after chain to
docs/papers/whitepaper.md§ 7.3 - Completion spine callout to
docs/papers/companion-brief.md - Updated safety pipeline diagram in
docs/architecture/current.md - Spine summary at top of
docs/completion-gate-lifecycle-migration.md
Updated:
- ROADMAP.md checkpoint date 2026-06-19 → 2026-06-30
Archived:
- None
Code Soup Risk: Medium
Code soup risk Low from pre-audit.
Recommended Next Move:
Continue refining documentation for clarity. Consider updating docs/parent-thread-execution-authority.md to reference the completion spine in the cold-path gate description.
