# Output Structure: Before vs After
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Visual Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Structure (v1.0) - ⚠️ Problematic
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
.workflow/active/WFS-session/
|
||||
├── .chat/ ⚠️ MIXED: Safe + Dangerous operations
|
||||
│ ├── analyze-*.md ✅ Read-only
|
||||
│ ├── plan-*.md ✅ Read-only
|
||||
│ ├── chat-*.md ✅ Read-only
|
||||
│ └── execute-*.md ⚠️ MODIFIES CODE!
|
||||
│
|
||||
├── .summaries/ ✅ OK
|
||||
├── .task/ ✅ OK
|
||||
└── .process/ ⚠️ MIXED: Multiple purposes
|
||||
├── context-package.json (planning context)
|
||||
├── phase2-analysis.json (temp data)
|
||||
├── CONFLICT_RESOLUTION.md (planning artifact)
|
||||
└── backup/ (history)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Problems**:
|
||||
- ❌ `.chat/` mixes safe (read-only) and dangerous (code-modifying) operations
|
||||
- ❌ `.process/` serves too many purposes
|
||||
- ❌ No clear organization by operation type
|
||||
- ❌ Hard to find specific outputs
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Proposed Structure (v2.0) - ✅ Clear & Semantic
|
||||
|
||||

|

**Benefits**:
|
||||
- ✅ Clear separation: Safe vs Dangerous operations
|
||||
- ✅ Semantic organization by purpose
|

- ✅ Easy to find outputs by type
|
||||
- ✅ Self-documenting structure

## Key Changes Summary
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Split `.chat/` by Safety Level
|
||||
|
||||
| Current | New | Safety |
|
||||
|---------|-----|--------|
|
||||
| `.chat/analyze-*.md` | `analysis/code/` | 🟢 Safe |
|
||||
| `.chat/plan-*.md` | `planning/architecture/` | 🟢 Safe |
|
||||
| `.chat/chat-*.md` | `interactions/` | 🟢 Safe |
|
||||
| `.chat/execute-*.md` | `executions/implementations/` | ⚠️ Dangerous |
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Split `.process/` by Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
| Current | New | Purpose |
|
||||
|---------|-----|---------|
|
||||
| `.process/context-package.json` | `context/project/` | Planning context |
|
||||
| `.process/CONFLICT_RESOLUTION.md` | `context/conflicts/` | Planning artifact |
|
||||
| `.process/ACTION_PLAN_VERIFICATION.md` | `quality/verifications/` | Quality check |
|
||||
| `.process/backup/` | `history/replans/` | Backups |
|
||||
| `.process/phase2-analysis.json` | `temp/` | Temporary data |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Rename for Clarity
|
||||
|
||||
| Current | New | Reason |
|
||||
|---------|-----|--------|
|
||||
| `.task/` | `tasks/` | Remove dot prefix (not hidden) |
|
||||
| `.summaries/` | `summaries/` | Keep same (already clear) |
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
# Proposed (v2.0)
|
||||
/cli:execute "implement auth"
|
||||
→ executions/implementations/2024-01-15T11-00-auth.md ⚠️ Clearly dangerous

|

|
||||
## Safety Indicators
|
||||
|
||||
### Directory Color Coding
|
||||
|
||||
- 🟢 **Green** (Safe): Read-only operations, no code changes
|
||||
- `analysis/`
|
||||
- `planning/`
|
||||
- `interactions/`
|
||||
- `summaries/`
|
||||
- `quality/`
|
||||
- `context/`
|
||||
- `history/`
|
||||
|
||||
- ⚠️ **Yellow** (Dangerous): Code-modifying operations
|
||||
- `executions/`
|
||||
|
||||
### File Naming Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**Safe Operations** (🟢):
|
||||
```
|
||||
analysis/code/2024-01-15T10-30-auth-patterns.md
|
||||
planning/discussions/2024-01-15T15-00-caching-3rounds.md
|
||||
interactions/2024-01-15T14-00-jwt-question.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Dangerous Operations** (⚠️):
|
||||
```
|
||||
executions/implementations/2024-01-15T11-00-impl-auth.md
|
||||
executions/test-fixes/2024-01-16T09-00-fix-login-tests.md
|
||||
executions/refactors/2024-01-16T15-00-refactor-middleware.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## User Experience Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (v1.0) - Confusing ❌
|
||||
|
||||
**User wants to review analysis logs**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ls .workflow/active/WFS-auth/.chat/
|
||||
analyze-2024-01-15.md
|
||||
execute-2024-01-15.md # ⚠️ Wait, which one is safe?
|
||||
plan-2024-01-14.md
|
||||
execute-2024-01-16.md # ⚠️ More dangerous files mixed in!
|
||||
chat-2024-01-15.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
User thinks: "They're all in `.chat/`, so they're all logs... right?" 😰
|
||||
|
||||
### After (v2.0) - Clear ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**User wants to review analysis logs**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ ls .workflow/active/WFS-auth/
|
||||
analysis/ # ✅ Safe - code understanding
|
||||
planning/ # ✅ Safe - planning discussions
|
||||
interactions/ # ✅ Safe - Q&A logs
|
||||
executions/ # ⚠️ DANGER - code modifications
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
User thinks: "Oh, `executions/` is separate. I know that modifies code!" 😊
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Impact
|
||||
|
||||
### Storage
|
||||
|
||||
**Overhead**: Negligible
|
||||
- Deeper directory nesting adds ~10 bytes per file
|
||||
- For 1000 files: ~10 KB additional metadata
|
||||
|
||||
### Access Speed
|
||||
|
||||
**Overhead**: Negligible
|
||||
- Modern filesystems handle nested directories efficiently
|
||||
- Typical lookup: O(log n) regardless of depth
|
||||
|
||||
### Migration Cost
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 1 (Dual Write)**: ~5-10% overhead
|
||||
- Writing to both old and new locations
|
||||
- Temporary during migration period
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 2+ (New Structure Only)**: No overhead
|
||||
- Single write location
|
||||
- Actually slightly faster (better organization)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Rollback Plan
|
||||
|
||||
If migration causes issues:
|
||||
|
||||
### Easy Rollback (Phase 1-2)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Stop using new structure
|
||||
git revert <migration-commit>
|
||||
# Continue with old structure
|
||||
# No data loss (dual write preserved both)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Rollback (Phase 3+)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Copy files back to old locations
|
||||
cp -r analysis/code/* .chat/
|
||||
cp -r executions/implementations/* .chat/
|
||||
cp -r context/project/* .process/
|
||||
# etc.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Timeline Summary
|
||||
|
||||
| Phase | Duration | Status | Risk |
|
||||
|-------|----------|--------|------|
|
||||
| **Phase 1**: Dual Write | 2 weeks | 📋 Planned | LOW |
|
||||
| **Phase 2**: Dual Read | 1 week | 📋 Planned | LOW |
|
||||
| **Phase 3**: Deprecation | 1 week | 📋 Planned | MEDIUM |
|
||||
| **Phase 4**: Full Migration | Future | 🤔 Optional | MEDIUM |
|
||||
|
||||
**Total**: 4 weeks for Phases 1-3
|
||||
**Effort**: ~20-30 hours development time
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Decision: Which Approach?
|
||||
|
||||
### Option A: Full v2.0 Migration (Recommended) ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**:
|
||||
- ✅ Clear semantic separation
|
||||
- ✅ Future-proof organization
|
||||
- ✅ Best user experience
|
||||
- ✅ Solves all identified problems
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**:
|
||||
- ❌ 4-week migration period
|
||||
- ❌ Affects 30+ commands
|
||||
- ❌ Requires documentation updates
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation**: **YES** - Worth the investment
|
||||
|
||||
### Option B: Minimal Changes (Quick Fix)
|
||||
|
||||
**Change**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
.chat/ → Split into .analysis/ and .executions/
|
||||
.process/ → Keep as-is with better docs
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**:
|
||||
- ✅ Quick implementation (1 week)
|
||||
- ✅ Solves main safety confusion
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**:
|
||||
- ❌ Partial solution
|
||||
- ❌ Still some confusion
|
||||
- ❌ May need full migration later anyway
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation**: Only if time-constrained
|
||||
|
||||
### Option C: Status Quo (No Change)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**:
|
||||
- ✅ No development effort
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**:
|
||||
- ❌ Problems remain
|
||||
- ❌ User confusion continues
|
||||
- ❌ Safety risks
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation**: **NO** - Not recommended
|
||||
|
||||
