170
- **Critical Pitfalls:**
171
- - Focus on domain-specific issues, not generic mistakes
172
- - Include warning signs — early detection prevents disasters
173
- - Link to specific phases — makes pitfalls actionable
174
-
175
- **Technical Debt:**
176
- - Be realistic — some shortcuts are acceptable
177
- - Note when shortcuts are "never acceptable" vs. "only in MVP"
178
- - Include the long-term cost to inform tradeoff decisions
179
-
180
- **Performance Traps:**
181
- - Include scale thresholds ("breaks at 10k users")
182
- - Focus on what's relevant for this project's expected scale
183
- - Don't over-engineer for hypothetical scale
184
-
185
- **Security Mistakes:**
186
- - Beyond OWASP basics — domain-specific issues
187
- - Example: Community platforms have different security concerns than e-commerce
188
- - Include risk level to prioritize
189
-
190
- **"Looks Done But Isn't":**
191
- - Checklist format for verification during execution
192
- - Common in demos vs. production
193
- - Prevents "it works on my machine" issues
194
-
195
- **Pitfall-to-Phase Mapping:**
196
- - Critical for roadmap creation
197
- - Each pitfall should map to a phase that prevents it
198
- - Informs phase ordering and success criteria

169
+
170
+ **Critical Pitfalls:**
171
+ - Focus on domain-specific issues, not generic mistakes
172
+ - Include warning signs — early detection prevents disasters
173
+ - Link to specific phases — makes pitfalls actionable
174
+
175
+ **Technical Debt:**
176
+ - Be realistic — some shortcuts are acceptable
177
+ - Note when shortcuts are "never acceptable" vs. "only in MVP"
178
+ - Include the long-term cost to inform tradeoff decisions
179
+
180
+ **Performance Traps:**
181
+ - Include scale thresholds ("breaks at 10k users")
182
+ - Focus on what's relevant for this project's expected scale
183
+ - Don't over-engineer for hypothetical scale
184
+
185
+ **Security Mistakes:**
186
+ - Beyond OWASP basics — domain-specific issues
187
+ - Example: Community platforms have different security concerns than e-commerce
188
+ - Include risk level to prioritize
189
+
190
+ **"Looks Done But Isn't":**
191
+ - Checklist format for verification during execution
192
+ - Common in demos vs. production
193
+ - Prevents "it works on my machine" issues
194
+
195
+ **Pitfall-to-Phase Mapping:**
196
+ - Critical for roadmap creation
197
+ - Each pitfall should map to a phase that prevents it
198
+ - Informs phase ordering and success criteria
