2
+ <purpose>
3
+ Template for `.docs/wiki/subsystems/[subsystem-name]/guides/<task-name>.md` — a step-by-step
4
+ recipe for a common implementation task. Answers "How do I add/create/implement X?"
5
+
6
+ Each guide combines knowledge from multiple systems, patterns, and cross-cutting concerns
7
+ into one actionable recipe. It is the document an AI agent follows when performing a
8
+ recurring task end-to-end.
9
+
10
+ A "guide" is a task recipe for something developers do repeatedly:
11
+ e.g., "How to Add a New Drawing Tool", "How to Add a New CRUD Endpoint",
12
+ "How to Add a New Indicator", "How to Add a New Repository".
13
+
14
+ Complements:
15
+ - patterns/ docs (the structural patterns that guides reference)
16
+ - systems/ docs (the domain systems where guide steps take place)
17
+ - cross-cutting/ docs (the registrations and setup that guides include as steps)

25
+ <prerequisites>
26
+ ## Prerequisites
27
+
28
+ What you need to know or have in place before starting.
29
+ - Read: [Pattern Doc](../patterns/relevant-pattern.md) — understand the structural pattern
30
+ - Read: [System Doc](../systems/relevant-system.md) — understand the domain context
31
+ - Read: [Cross-Cutting Doc](../cross-cutting/relevant-concern.md) — understand registrations
32
+ </prerequisites>
33
+
34
+ <steps>
35
+ ## Steps
36
+
37
+ ### 1. [First Step]
38
+
39
+ What to do, where to do it, reference implementation to copy from.
40
+ - Create file: `[path]`
41
+ - Copy from: `file:ExistingImplementation` (closest reference)
42
+ - Key changes: [what to modify from the reference]
43
+
44
+ ### 2. [Second Step]
45
+
46
+ ...
47
+
48
+ ### 3. [Third Step]

71
+ <guidelines>
72
+
73
+ **Documentation Style:**
74
+ - EXTREMELY SUCCINCT — every word must add value
75
+ - NO FLUFF — direct, actionable information only
76
+ - Numbered steps — the agent follows these in order
77
+ - Code references as `file-path:ClassName.methodName` (not line numbers)
78
+ - Inline snippets ONLY for non-obvious configuration or registration code
79
+ - Every step must have a clear deliverable (a file created, a registration added, etc.)
80
+
81
+ **Prerequisites:**
82
+ - Link to the docs an agent should read BEFORE starting.
83
+ - Don't repeat content from those docs — just link.
84
+ - List any tools, dependencies, or environment requirements.
85
+
86
+ **Steps:**
87
+ - NUMBERED, ORDERED steps. An agent follows these sequentially.
88
+ - Each step has: WHAT to do, WHERE to do it, WHAT to copy from.
89
+ - Reference existing implementations as "copy from" targets — agents copy patterns, not invent.
90
+ - Include ALL steps: file creation, registration, configuration, wiring.
91
+ - Don't skip "obvious" steps — agents don't infer implicit requirements.
92
+
93
+ **Verification:**
94
+ - Checklist format. Agent runs through these after completing all steps.
95
+ - Include compilation check, runtime check, and behavioral check.
96
+ - Reference specific files or commands for verification.
97
+
98
+ **Common Mistakes:**
99
+ - Things agents (and developers) typically get wrong on first attempt.
100
+ - Each mistake should include WHY it happens and HOW to avoid it.
101
+ - Drawn from actual experience (gotchas from pattern and system docs).
102
+
103
+ **What does NOT belong here:**
104
+ - Detailed pattern explanations (link to patterns/ docs instead)
105
+ - System domain knowledge (link to systems/ docs instead)
106
+ - Cross-cutting mechanism details (link to cross-cutting/ docs instead)
107
+ - Story numbers, sprint context, revision history
108
+ - Testing strategy or test code (verification section covers basic checks only)
109
+

111
+
112
+ <evolution>
113
+
114
+ This is a LIVING document — updated when the recipe changes.
115
+
116
+ **Update triggers:**
117
+ - New step required (new registration, new file to create)
118
+ - Step removed (registration no longer needed)
119
+ - Step order changed
120
+ - New common mistake discovered
121
+ - Reference implementation changed (new "copy from" target)
122
+ - Prerequisite docs added or removed
123
+
124
+ **NOT an update trigger:**
125
+ - New feature that follows the existing recipe without changes
126
+ - Bug fix in one implementation that followed the guide
127
+ - Internal refactoring that doesn't change the steps
128
+
129
+ **Update rules:**
130
+ - UPDATE steps when the recipe changes
131
+ - ADD new common mistakes as they are discovered
132
+ - UPDATE "copy from" references when better examples exist
133
+ - Keep the guide current — an agent should be able to follow it TODAY

+ - **ALL visual representations of architecture, dependencies, flows, or relationships MUST be ```mermaid fenced code blocks (use `classDiagram` for structure). NO ASCII arrows (->), NO dependency trees, NO PlantUML. Only mermaid. The ONLY ASCII exception is file trees.**
98
+
99
+ **The Pattern:**
100
+ - ONE paragraph. Name the GoF/industry pattern if applicable, then explain how it
101
+ manifests in THIS codebase. Not a textbook definition — the codebase-specific version.
102
+
103
+ **Structure:**
104
+ - Mermaid classDiagram showing the abstract/interface hierarchy.
105
+ - Show the pattern skeleton only — not every concrete implementation.
106
+ - Include key method signatures that define the contract.
107
+
108
+ **How It Works:**
109
+ - Numbered steps tracing the pattern's execution flow.
110
+ - Every step references actual code with `file:ClassName.method`.
111
+ - Focus on the mechanics an agent needs to understand to add a new implementation.
112
+
113
+ **How to Apply:**
114
+ - The MOST ACTIONABLE section. An agent follows these steps to create a new instance.
115
+ - Reference existing implementations as "copy from" targets.
116
+ - Include which files to create, which registrations to add, which factories to update.
117
+
118
+ **Current Implementations:**
119
+ - Complete list of all known implementations with file paths.
120
+ - Agent uses this as a reference gallery — "pick the closest one and copy its structure."
121
+ - Update when new implementations are added.
122
+
123
+ **Gotchas:**
124
+ - Timing issues, naming conventions, registration requirements, common mistakes.
125
+ - Anything an agent would get wrong on first attempt without being told.
126
+
127
+ **What does NOT belong here:**
128
+ - System-specific domain logic (that's in systems/ docs)
129
+ - Step-by-step task recipes that combine multiple patterns (that's in guides/)
130
+ - Cross-cutting infrastructure details (that's in cross-cutting/)
131
+ - Story numbers, sprint context, revision history
132
+ - Testing instructions, performance benchmarks

137
+
138
+ This is a LIVING document — updated when the pattern itself evolves.
139
+
140
+ **Update triggers:**
141
+ - New implementation added (update Current Implementations list)
142
+ - Pattern structure changed (new factory method, new interface method)
143
+ - How to Apply steps changed (new registration requirement, new file to create)
144
+ - New gotcha discovered during implementation
145
+
146
+ **NOT an update trigger:**
147
+ - New feature that follows the existing pattern without changing it
148
+ - Bug fix in one implementation
149
+ - Internal refactoring that doesn't change the pattern contract
150
+
151
+ **Update rules:**
152
+ - ADD new implementations to the list
153
+ - UPDATE How to Apply if the recipe changed
154
+ - ADD new gotchas as they are discovered
155
+ - Do NOT remove historical gotchas unless they are no longer relevant

3
+ Template for `.docs/wiki/subsystems/[subsystem-name]/cross-cutting/<concern-name>.md` — a
4
+ concern that spans multiple systems within a codebase subsystem. Answers "How does this
5
+ shared infrastructure/concern work, and how do I plug into it?"
6
+
7
+ Each cross-cutting doc describes shared infrastructure or mechanisms that multiple domain
8
+ systems depend on. It is the document an AI agent reads to understand how to register,
9
+ configure, or interact with shared concerns.
10
+
11
+ Examples of cross-cutting concerns:
12
+ - Dependency injection and container registration
13
+ - Factory/registry registration patterns
14
+ - Event systems, invalidation, pub/sub
15
+ - Serialization/deserialization
16
+ - Error handling and logging infrastructure
17
+ - Authentication/authorization middleware
18
+ - Cache/invalidation infrastructure
19
+ - Shared abstract base classes
20
+
21
+ Complements:
22
+ - systems/ docs (domain systems that USE these cross-cutting concerns)
23
+ - patterns/ docs (reusable structural patterns, not shared infrastructure)
24
+ - guides/ docs (task recipes that reference cross-cutting setup steps)

92
+ Known quality issues in this cross-cutting concern discovered during story code reviews.
93
+ Items are added by the wiki mapper and removed when fixed by a future story.
94

+ - **Severity:** high | medium | low
98
+ - **File:** `[file-path:SymbolName]`
99

100
+ if left unfixed. For cross-cutting concerns, note which dependent systems are affected.

111
+ <guidelines>
112
+
113
+ **Documentation Style:**
114
+ - EXTREMELY SUCCINCT — every word must add value
115
+ - NO FLUFF — direct, actionable information only
116
+ - Bullet points over paragraphs
117
+ - Code references as `file-path:ClassName.methodName` (not line numbers)
118
+ - Inline snippets ONLY for usage patterns and registration examples
119
+ - **ALL visual representations of architecture, dependencies, flows, or relationships MUST be ```mermaid fenced code blocks. NO ASCII arrows (->), NO dependency trees, NO PlantUML. Only mermaid. The ONLY ASCII exception is file trees.**
120
+
121
+ **Overview:**
122
+ - ONE paragraph. What the concern does and why it exists.
123
+ - Focus on what an agent needs to know to interact with this concern.
124
+
125
+ **How It Works:**
126
+ - Numbered steps explaining the mechanism.
127
+ - Reference actual code locations — not theoretical descriptions.
128
+ - If the mechanism has a flow (event dispatching, DI resolution), show a mermaid sequence diagram.
129
+
130
+ **Registration / Setup:**
131
+ - The MOST CRITICAL section for AI agents. They need to know WHERE to register new things.
132
+ - List every registration point with exact file paths.
133
+ - Show the registration pattern (inline code only if non-obvious).
134
+
135
+ **Usage:**
136
+ - How consuming code interacts with this concern.
137
+ - Inline code snippet ONLY if the usage pattern is non-obvious.
138
+ - If usage is straightforward (e.g., inject via constructor), a one-liner suffices.
139
+
140
+ **Current Registrations / Implementations:**
141
+ - Complete list of everything currently registered/using this concern.
142
+ - Agent uses this to verify its new registration is consistent with existing ones.
143
+ - Update when new registrations are added.
144
+
145
+ **Integration Points:**
146
+ - Cross-reference with markdown links to system docs that depend on this concern.
147
+ - Helps agents understand the blast radius of changes to this concern.
148
+
149
+ **Gotchas:**
150
+ - Registration order dependencies, naming conventions, initialization timing.
151
+ - Anything that silently fails if done wrong.
152
+
153
+ **Tech Debt:**
154
+ - One `###` subsection per known issue — NOT a table. Each issue needs enough context
155
+ for an agent to understand the problem without reading the code.
156
+ - For cross-cutting concerns, always note which dependent systems are affected.
157
+ - Severity: `high` (security, data loss, production instability), `medium` (quality,
158
+ maintainability), `low` (cosmetic, minor inefficiency).
159
+ - Always link to the discovering story for traceability.
160
+ - REMOVE items when fixed by a future story.
161
+ - Omit the entire section if no tech debt exists in this concern.
162
+
163
+ **What does NOT belong here:**
164
+ - Domain-specific logic (that's in systems/ docs)
165
+ - Reusable structural patterns (that's in patterns/ docs)
166
+ - Step-by-step task recipes (that's in guides/ docs)
167
+ - Story numbers, sprint context, revision history
168
+ - Testing instructions, performance benchmarks

186
+ - Bug fix in one registered component
187
