# Recipe Manager — Project Kickoff Summary
|
|
|
|
**Created:** 2026-03-23
|
|
**Status:** ✅ Project harness complete, ready for agent sprint
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## What Got Built
|
|
|
|
### 🎯 Core Harness Files
|
|
1. **PROJECT.md** — Product vision, constraints, success criteria, key questions
|
|
2. **ARCHITECTURE.md** — Tech stack decisions, data models, API design, deployment
|
|
3. **ROADMAP.md** — MVP → v1 → v2 milestones with acceptance criteria
|
|
4. **AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md** — How agents work (Orient → Plan → Implement → Verify → Commit → Report)
|
|
5. **README.md** — Project overview, quick start, tech stack
|
|
6. **TODO.md** — Task tracking checklist
|
|
7. **.gitignore** — Standard exclusions (node_modules, data/, .env, etc.)
|
|
|
|
### 🔧 Infrastructure
|
|
- Git repository initialized (branch: `main`)
|
|
- Directory structure created: `src/`, `docs/`, `tests/`
|
|
- First commit: Project harness baseline
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## What This Enables
|
|
|
|
✅ **Agent autonomy** — Codex can read context and work independently
|
|
✅ **Clear scope** — MVP is well-defined, no feature creep
|
|
✅ **Quality standards** — Testing, documentation, commit conventions documented
|
|
✅ **Iterative development** — Small commits, frequent validation
|
|
✅ **Decision tracking** — ADRs (Architecture Decision Records) in `docs/`
|
|

## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
### 1. Review & Answer Questions (You)
|
|
|
|
**From PROJECT.md:**
|
|
- **Domain/URL:** Should this be `recipes.paje.ca` or a subdirectory?
|
|
- **Initial users:** Just Anne & Elizabeth, or open to friends/family?
|
|
- **Data migration:** Export from CopyMeThat, or start fresh?
|
|
- **Priority after MVP:** Recipe scraping extension or AI features first?
|
|
|
|
**Optional tweaks:**
|
|
- Any changes to tech stack? (Current: Node + TypeScript + React + SQLite)
|
|
- Any MVP features to add/remove?
|
|
- Deployment preference (Docker on paje.ca confirmed?)
|
|
|
|
### 2. Spawn the First Agent (Me or You)
|
|
|
|
Two options:
|
|
|
|
#### Option A: Spawn immediately (Cleo does it)
|
|
I can kick off the first Codex 5.2 sub-agent right now with:
|
|
```
|
|
Task: "Build recipe-manager MVP per PROJECT.md. Start with backend setup (Node + TypeScript + SQLite schema). Follow AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md workflow. Report progress after each commit."
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Advantage:** Overnight work starts now
|
|
**Disadvantage:** Agent might ask questions you haven't answered yet
|
|
|
|
#### Option B: You answer questions first, then spawn tomorrow
|
|
Review the files, answer the open questions, tweak anything, then give the green light.
|
|
|
|
**Advantage:** Agent has complete context, fewer blockers
|
|
**Disadvantage:** Delays the start
|
|
|
|
### 3. Agent Works Autonomously
|
|
|
|
Once spawned, the agent will:
|
|
- Read PROJECT.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, ROADMAP.md
|
|
- Pick the first task (likely: "Initialize Node.js project structure")
|
|
- Implement, test, commit
|
|
- Move to next task
|
|
- Report blockers or milestone completion
|
|
|
|
You can check `git log` anytime to see progress.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Review & Approve MVP
|
|
|
|
When agent reports "MVP complete," you:
|
|
- Pull the code
|
|
- Test locally: `npm install && npm run dev`
|
|
- Verify acceptance criteria (Anne can add a recipe, Elizabeth can use cook mode)
|
|
- Give feedback or approve for v1.0 milestone
|
|
|

|
## Recommended: Answer Questions Now
|
|
|
|
I suggest spending 5 minutes answering the open questions so the agent has a clean runway. Want to do that now, or should I spawn anyway and have the agent make reasonable assumptions (documented in ADRs)?
