-## Code Examples
-
-### Incremental Update Pattern
-
-```typescript
-class IncrementalTreeMap {
-  private map: Map<string, TreeNode> = new Map();
-
-  // ✅ O(1) - Add single node
-  addNode(node: TreeNode): void {
-    this.map.set(node.id, node);
-  }
-
-  // ✅ O(k) - Add subtree (k = nodes in subtree)
-  addSubtree(root: TreeNode): void {
-    const queue = [root];
-    while (queue.length > 0) {
-      const node = queue.shift()!;
-      this.map.set(node.id, node);
-      queue.push(...node.children);
-    }
-  }
-
-  // ✅ O(k) - Remove subtree recursively
-  removeSubtree(nodeId: string): void {
-    const node = this.map.get(nodeId);
-    if (!node) return;
-
-    // Collect all descendants
-    const toRemove = [nodeId];
-    let i = 0;
-    while (i < toRemove.length) {
-      const current = this.map.get(toRemove[i]);
-      if (current) {
-        toRemove.push(...current.children.map(c => c.id));
-      }
-      i++;
-    }
-
-    // Remove all at once
-    for (const id of toRemove) {
-      this.map.delete(id);
-    }
-  }
-}
-```

-## Performance Comparison Data
-
-### Benchmark Results (simulated based on known complexity)
-
-| Operation | Full Rebuild | Incremental | Speedup |
-|-----------|--------------|-------------|---------|
-| Add 1 node (1000 tree) | 1000 ops | 1 op | 1000× |
-| Remove 1 node (1000 tree) | 1000 ops | 1-10 ops | 100-1000× |
-| Add 10 nodes (1000 tree) | 1000 ops | 10 ops | 100× |
-| Update root reference | 1000 ops | 1 op | 1000× |
-
-### Memory Characteristics
-
-| Approach | Allocations | GC Pressure | Fragmentation |
-|----------|-------------|-------------|---------------|
-| Full Rebuild | O(n) new objects | High (single large GC) | Low |
-| Incremental | O(k) new objects | Low (spread out) | Minimal |

-## Gotchas & Anti-Patterns
-
-### ❌ Common Mistakes
-
-1. **Forgetting to clean up detached subtrees**
-   ```typescript
-   // ❌ WRONG - Orphans remain in map
-   onDetach(childId: string): void {
-     this.map.delete(childId);
-   }
-
-   // ✅ CORRECT - Remove entire subtree
-   onDetach(childId: string): void {
-     this.removeSubtree(childId);
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. **Rebuilding when only reference changed**
-   ```typescript
-   // ❌ WRONG - Unnecessary rebuild
-   onRootUpdated(root: WorkflowNode): void {
-     this.map.clear();
-     this.buildMap(root);
-   }
-
-   // ✅ CORRECT - Just update reference
-   onRootUpdated(root: WorkflowNode): void {
-     this.root = root;
-     // Map still valid - node references unchanged
-   }
-   ```
-
-3. **Optimizing prematurely**
-   ```typescript
-   // ❌ WRONG - Over-engineering for small trees
-   // Don't implement complex incremental logic for <50 nodes
-   // Full rebuild is perfectly fine for small datasets
-   ```
-
-### ✅ Best Practices
-
-1. **Always measure before optimizing**
-2. **Document time complexity in code comments**
-3. **Use TypeScript types to enforce patterns**
-4. **Write benchmarks to verify improvements**
-5. **Consider tree size when choosing approach**

-## Action Items for Your PRP
-
-1. ✅ **Replace full rebuild in `onTreeChanged()`**
-   - Current: `this.nodeMap.clear(); this.buildNodeMap(root);`
-   - Proposed: Just update `this.root = root;`
-
-2. ✅ **Add `childDetached` handler**
-   - Implement recursive subtree removal
-   - Clean up all descendants
-
-3. ✅ **Keep existing `childAttached` handler**
-   - Already optimal - adds only new subtree
-
-4. ✅ **Add benchmarks**
-   - Measure before/after performance
-   - Test with trees of varying sizes
-
-5. ✅ **Document complexity**
-   - Add JSDoc comments with time complexity
-   - Explain incremental approach

-## Problem Summary
-
-### Current Implementation (`/home/dustin/projects/groundswell/src/debugger/tree-debugger.ts`)
-
-```typescript
-onTreeChanged(root: WorkflowNode): void {
-  this.root = root;
-  this.nodeMap.clear();        // ❌ Full clear
-  this.buildNodeMap(root);     // ❌ O(n) rebuild
-}
-```
-
-**Issues**:
-- Time Complexity: O(n) for every tree change
-- Memory Impact: Full Map reconstruction triggers GC
-- Scaling: Becomes expensive with 1000+ node trees
-
-## Solution Summary
-
-### Recommended: Event-Driven Incremental Updates
-
-```typescript
-onEvent(event: WorkflowEvent): void {
-  switch (event.type) {
-    case 'childAttached':
-      // ✅ O(k) - Add only new subtree
-      this.addSubtree(event.child);
-      break;
-
-    case 'childDetached':
-      // ✅ O(k) - Remove only detached subtree
-      this.removeSubtree(event.childId);
-      break;
-
-    case 'treeUpdated':
-      // ✅ O(1) - Just update reference
-      this.root = event.root;
-      break;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Benefits**:
-- O(1) for single node operations
-- O(k) for subtree operations (k = affected nodes)
-- No GC pressure from Map reconstruction
-- 100-1000× faster for large trees
-
-## Performance Comparison
-
-| Operation | Current | Incremental | Speedup |
-|-----------|---------|-------------|---------|
-| Add 1 node (1000 tree) | O(n) | O(1) | 1000× |
-| Remove 1 node (1000 tree) | O(n) | O(k) | 100× |
-| Update root | O(n) | O(1) | 1000× |
-
-## Key Takeaways
-
-### ✅ Do's
-1. Use incremental updates for trees with >100 nodes
-2. Clean up entire subtrees on detach
-3. Document time complexity in comments
-4. Benchmark before and after optimization
-5. Consider tree size when choosing approach
-
-### ❌ Don'ts
-1. Don't rebuild entire map for single-node changes
-2. Don't leave orphaned descendants in map
-3. Don't optimize prematurely (<50 nodes usually fine)
-4. Don't forget to handle all event types
-
-## Implementation Checklist
-
-- [ ] Add `handleChildDetached()` method with recursive cleanup

-## Approach
-
-Based on research documented in `/home/dustin/projects/groundswell/plan/001_d3bb02af4886/docs/research/incremental-tree-map-updates/RESEARCH_REPORT.md`:
-
-1. Event-driven incremental updates provide O(1)-O(k) complexity
-2. Full rebuild (current) is O(n) for every change
-3. Expected improvement: 100-1000× for large trees
