[IMPORTANT] Use

TaskCreate

to break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ask user whether to skip.

Quick Summary

Goal: Generate comprehensive 26-section business feature documentation with mandatory code evidence for all test cases, plus AI companion file.

Workflow:

1. Detect & Gather — Auto-detect modules from git changes OR user-specified module, read existing docs
2. Investigate Code — Grep/glob codebase to gather evidence (

   file:line

   format) for every test case
3. Write Documentation — Follow exact 26-section structure, place in

   docs/business-features/{Module}/

4. Generate AI Companion — Create

   .ai.md

   file (max 300 lines) with domain model, file locations, key expressions
5. Verification — 3-pass system: evidence audit, domain model verification, cross-reference audit

Key Rules:

• EVERY test case MUST have verifiable code evidence (

  FilePath:LineNumber

  ), no exceptions
• Output must have exactly 26 sections matching the master template
• Always update CHANGELOG.md and Version History (Section 26) when modifying docs
• When writing Section 17 test cases: include an

  IntegrationTest

  field pointing to the test file and method name. Format:

  IntegrationTest: Goals/GoalCommandIntegrationTests.cs::{MethodName}

  . If no integration test exists yet, set

  Status: Untested

  .
• Verify every TC-{MOD}-XXX in Section 17 has a corresponding

  [Trait("TestSpec", "TC-{MOD}-XXX")]

  in the integration test codebase. If missing, flag as

  Status: Untested

  .
• If third verification pass finds >5 issues, HALT and re-run verification

Project Pattern Discovery

Before implementation, search your codebase for project-specific patterns:

• Search for:

  business-features

  ,

  detailed-features

  ,

  feature-docs-template

• Look for: existing feature doc folders, 26-section templates, AI companion files

MANDATORY IMPORTANT MUST Read the

feature-docs-reference.md

companion doc for project-specific patterns and code examples. If file not found, continue with search-based discovery above.

Feature Documentation Generation & Verification

Generate comprehensive feature documentation following project conventions and folder structure.

GOLD STANDARD References:

Search your codebase for existing feature docs to use as reference:

find docs/business-features -name "README.*.md" -type f | head -5

Template File:

docs/templates/detailed-feature-docs-template.md

docs/templates/feature-docs-ai-template.md

[CRITICAL] MANDATORY CODE EVIDENCE RULE

EVERY test case MUST have verifiable code evidence. This is non-negotiable.

Evidence Format

**Evidence**: `{RelativeFilePath}:{LineNumber}` or `{RelativeFilePath}:{StartLine}-{EndLine}`

Valid vs Invalid Evidence

ErrorMessage.cs:83

{FilePath}:{LineRange}

Handler.cs:42-52

SomeFile.cs

interviews.service.ts:115-118

Output Structure

All documentation MUST be placed in the correct folder structure:

docs/
├── BUSINESS-FEATURES.md              # Master index (UPDATE if new module)
├── templates/
│   └── detailed-feature-docs-template.md  # MASTER TEMPLATE
└── business-features/
    ├── {Module}/                     # One folder per service/module in your project
    │   ├── README.md                 # Complete module documentation
    │   ├── INDEX.md                  # Navigation hub
    │   ├── API-REFERENCE.md          # Endpoint documentation
    │   ├── TROUBLESHOOTING.md        # Issue resolution guide
    │   └── detailed-features/
    │       ├── README.{FeatureName}.md     # Comprehensive (human-facing, 1000+ lines)
    │       └── README.{FeatureName}.ai.md  # AI companion (code-focused, 300-500 lines)
    └── ...

Module Mapping

Search your codebase to discover the module-to-folder mapping:

# Find all service directories
ls -d src/Services/*/

# Find all existing feature doc modules
ls -d docs/business-features/*/

Map each module code to its folder name and service path. Example pattern:

{Module1}

src/Services/{Module1}/

{Module2}

src/Services/{Module2}/

MANDATORY 26-SECTION STRUCTURE

All feature documentation MUST follow this section order:

Stakeholder Quick Navigation

Phase 1: Module Detection & Context Gathering

Step 1.0: Auto-Detect Modules from Git Changes (Default)

When no module or feature is explicitly specified, automatically detect affected modules from git changes:

1. Run

   git diff --name-only HEAD

   (captures both staged and unstaged changes)
2. If no uncommitted changes, run

   git diff --name-only HEAD~1

   (last commit)
3. Extract unique module names from changed file paths using the Module Mapping table
4. For each detected module, check if a business feature doc exists in

   docs/business-features/{Module}/

5. If docs exist → proceed to Phase 1.5 (Update Mode) for each module
6. If no docs exist → skip (do not create docs from scratch without explicit user request)
7. If no service-layer files changed (e.g., only

   .claude/

   ,

   docs/

   , config files) → report "No business feature docs impacted" and exit

Path-to-Module Detection Rules:

Search your codebase to build the path-to-module mapping. Common patterns:

src/Services/{Module}/**

{frontend-apps-dir}/{app-name}/**

{frontend-libs-dir}/{domain-lib}/src/{feature}/**

Build a project-specific mapping by examining:

ls -d src/Services/*/
ls -d {frontend-apps-dir}/*/

Step 1.1: Identify Target Module

Determine which module the feature belongs to by:

1. User explicitly specifies module name
2. Feature name/domain implies module (search codebase to verify mapping)
3. Search codebase for feature-related entities/commands
4. Auto-detected from git diff (Step 1.0 above) — used when invoked as a workflow step without explicit module

Step 1.2: Read Existing Documentation

Before creating new docs, read existing structure:

1. Read

   docs/BUSINESS-FEATURES.md

   (master index)
2. Read

   docs/business-features/{Module}/INDEX.md

   (if exists)
3. Read

   docs/business-features/{Module}/README.md

   (if exists)
4. Identify what already exists vs what needs creation/update

Step 1.3: Codebase Analysis

Gather evidence from source code:

• Entities:

  src/Services/{Module}/{Module}.Domain/Entities/

• Commands:

  src/Services/{Module}/{Module}.Application/UseCaseCommands/

• Queries:

  src/Services/{Module}/{Module}.Application/UseCaseQueries/

• Controllers:

  src/Services/{Module}/{Module}.Service/Controllers/

• Frontend:

  {frontend-apps-dir}/{app-name}/

  or

  {frontend-libs-dir}/{domain-lib}/

Step 1.4: Feature Analysis

Build knowledge model in

.ai/workspace/analysis/[feature-name].md

Discovery Areas

1. Domain Entity Discovery: Entities, value objects, enums
2. Workflow Discovery: Commands, Queries, Event Handlers, Background Jobs
3. API Discovery: Controllers, endpoints, DTOs
4. Frontend Discovery: Components, Services, Stores
5. Cross-Service Discovery: Message Bus messages, producers, consumers

Phase 1.5: Update Mode (when updating existing docs)

When UPDATING an existing business feature document (not creating from scratch):

Step 1.5.1: Diff Analysis

1. Identify the source of changes (git diff, branch comparison, commit history)
2. Categorize changes by type: backend entity, command, query, frontend component, i18n, etc.
3. Map each change to impacted documentation sections (use table below)

Step 1.5.2: Section Impact Mapping

Step 1.5.3: Mandatory Test Coverage (Sections 17-20)

CRITICAL: When documenting ANY new functionality, you MUST update:

• Section 17 (Test Specifications): Add test cases (TC-{MOD}-XXX) for new features with GIVEN/WHEN/THEN format. Each TC entry should include:

  #### TC-GM-001: Create SMART Goal Successfully
  
  **Priority**: P0-Critical
  **Status**: Tested | Untested
  **IntegrationTest**: `Goals/GoalCommandIntegrationTests.cs::SaveGoal_WhenValidData_ShouldCreateSuccessfully`
  **Evidence**: `Growth.Application/Goals/Commands/SaveGoalCommand.cs:42-68`
  

• Section 18 (Test Data): Add seed data required for new test cases

• Section 19 (Edge Cases): Add edge cases for boundary conditions, error states, permission checks

• Section 20 (Regression Impact): Add regression risk rows for impacted areas, update test suite counts

Failure to update test sections is a blocking quality issue.

Step 1.5.4: CHANGELOG Entry

Always create/update

CHANGELOG.md

[Unreleased]

Phase 2: Documentation Generation

Generate at

docs/business-features/{Module}/detailed-features/README.{FeatureName}.md

Phase 2.5: AI Companion Generation

Generate AI-agent optimized companion file alongside the comprehensive documentation.

Output:

docs/business-features/{Module}/detailed-features/README.{FeatureName}.ai.md

docs/templates/detailed-feature-docs-template.ai.md

AI Companion Structure (10 Sections, ~260 lines)

Compression Rules

1. Tables over prose - Convert paragraphs to table rows
2. Paths over descriptions -

   File:Line

   over "located in..."
3. Signatures over examples -

   { id: string } → { entity: Dto }

   over full code
4. Decisions over explanations - What to do, not why

AI Companion Extended (6-Section Variant, ~420 lines)

For larger features, use the extended companion format:

1. Quick Reference (~40 lines) - Module, service, file locations
2. Domain Model (~80 lines) - Entities, enums, value objects (condensed)
3. API Contracts (~100 lines) - Signatures with DTOs only
4. Validation Rules (~80 lines) - BR-XX table format
5. Service Boundaries (~60 lines) - Cross-service integration
6. Critical Paths (~60 lines) - Key workflows as decision trees

AI Companion Header

1. Read current content
2. Verify module is listed in the "Detailed Module Documentation" table
3. Add link if missing:

   | **{Module}** | [Description] | [View Details](./business-features/{Module}/README.md) |
   

Anti-Hallucination Protocols

Prerequisites: MUST READ

.claude/skills/shared/evidence-based-reasoning-protocol.md

DOCUMENTATION_ACCURACY_CHECKPOINT

Before writing any documentation:

• "Have I read the actual code that implements this?"
• "Are my line number references accurate and current?"
• "Can I provide a code snippet as evidence?"

TEST CASE EVIDENCE VERIFICATION

For EVERY test case:

1. Read the Evidence file at claimed line number
2. Verify: Does code at that line support test assertion?
3. Check Edge Cases: Find error constants in

   ErrorMessage.cs

4. Fix immediately if line numbers wrong

Phase 3.5: Verification (3 Passes)

First Pass - Test Case Evidence Audit

For EVERY test case in documentation:

1. Read the Evidence file at the claimed line number
2. Verify match: Does the code at that line support the test assertion?
3. Check Edge Cases: Find error message constants in

   ErrorMessage.cs

4. Fix immediately if line numbers are wrong

Second Pass - Domain Model Verification

• Read EACH entity file referenced in Domain Model section
• Verify property names, types, and line numbers
• Check enum values exist in actual source
• Remove any documented properties not found in source

Third Pass - Cross-Reference Audit

• Test Summary counts match actual test case count
• All internal links work
• No template placeholders remain (

  {FilePath}

  ,

  {LineRange}

  )
• ErrorMessage.cs constants match edge case messages

CRITICAL: If ANY pass finds hallucinated content, re-investigate and fix before completing.
