agent: lumotia — Pass 1 v0.1 checklist refinements + Pass 2 v0.1 UI hardening boundary doc
Operationalises the ChatGPT review of the v0.1 release-doc set into two
related landings. Both bounded; no Garden Inbox work, no architecture
refactor, no full redesign.
PASS 1 — v0.1-checklist.md refinements
=======================================
Seven targeted edits to the existing checklist:
1. Cold setup vs warm activation split. Tester acceptance test was
conflating model-download time (variable, network-dependent) with
UX-controlled flow time. Two-phase pass:
- Cold setup: install → onboarding → ready-to-record (no time bound)
- Warm activation: model-ready → first recording within 3 minutes
Steps 1-4 are cold; 5-10 are warm.
2. Migration-aware onboarding wording. "Skip-onboarding path for users
who already have transcripts on disk" → "Migration-aware onboarding:
existing users with valid data are not forced through first-run, but
can launch the tutorial manually from Settings → Help."
3. UI acceptance section. New testable items between Documentation
surface and Quality gates — turns "redo the UI" into measurable
requirements:
- Main capture action visible <1s on Home
- Recording state not communicated by colour alone
- 10-step flow completable at 900×700 + keyboard only
- Destructive actions reversible or confirmed
- Every async state has sidebar status chip feedback
- Error states preserve raw transcript + plain-words next step
- Settings Start Here / Privacy / Accessibility findable
- Focus ring visible everywhere
- prefers-reduced-motion respected
- WCAG AA contrast spot-check both modes
- Post-capture card surfaces (display-only; NOT Garden Inbox)
4. Supported platforms scope. New subsection before smoke-test matrix
explicitly naming:
- Primary (must work end-to-end): Linux Fedora + Ubuntu LTS
- Best-effort (announced if smoke-tested): macOS Apple Silicon,
Windows 11
- Not announced unless smoke-tested: macOS Intel
5. P0/P1/P2 smoke-test severity replacing "any ❌ blocks tag":
- P0 — blocks tag (tester spine on a primary platform)
- P1 — ships only with explicit known-limitation entry
- P2 — does not block private beta (not-announced platform / v0.2
feature)
Pre-tag verification confirms no unresolved P0 or undocumented P1.
6. "Telemetry" → "local activation log". Re-worded the activation
metrics capture mechanism. Word choice deliberate — privacy-conscious
audience reacts to "telemetry" itself. Surface: Settings →
Diagnostics → Activation log. Nothing sent automatically.
7. Support burden signal. New activation-metric subsection covering
the AI-assisted-indie risk that every issue becomes a support call:
- Self-service rate ≥ 70% (issues filed to bug tracker, not inbox)
- Diagnostic bundle (logs + system info + crash dumps; skips
transcript content + audio by default)
- Top-3 setup failures documented after first 5 testers
PASS 2 — v0.1-ui-hardening.md
==============================
New strict-boundary doc at docs/release/v0.1-ui-hardening.md (262
lines). Anchored on the line:
The v0.1 UI pass is not there to make Lumotia beautiful. It is there
to make the first successful capture inevitable.
Step 0 (before any code change): walk the 20 existing
src/design-system/preview/ files and classify each item as
already-good / needs-v0.1-hardening / v0.2-polish. Don't rebuild what
works. Inventory table inline in the doc cross-references each preview
file to the in-scope items below.
IN SCOPE (10 items, each testable):
1. Home capture clarity — big record button, status pill, last-capture
preview, capped Now/Tasks at 1-3 visible
2. Recording as sacred UI state — hide settings/history/advanced
during capture; show only timer/pause/stop/cancel + live transcript
+ level meter
3. Post-capture card — the v0.1 headline UI artefact. Display-only
surface of raw + cleaned + tasks + microsteps + 4 actions
(Save/Export/StartFirstMicroStep/OpenInHistory). Explicitly NOT
Garden Inbox: no routing, no accept/edit/park/archive, no
backlinks, no confidence scores
4. First-run onboarding polish — single clear next action per step,
pre-supplied prompt for test recording, graceful failure recovery,
skip-to-main escape hatch (tracked as known-limitations follow-up)
5. Settings sanity pass — 6 sections in order: Start Here /
Transcription / Models / Tasks / Accessibility / Privacy / Advanced.
Full 7-group progressive-disclosure regroup deferred to v0.2
6. Error-state copy sweep — every error preserves raw transcript,
explains in plain words, says next user action, no stack traces
user-facing
7. Keyboard flow — entire 10-step tester acceptance completable by
keyboard only, focus ring visible, no hover-only controls
8. Responsive at 900×700 + 1440×900 ONLY — ultrawide / mobile / split-
screen deferred to v0.2 unless a tester reports them
9. Accessibility practical checks (WCAG-style, not certification) —
keyboard, focus, not-colour-alone, reduced motion, contrast spot-
check, literal-words status labels, form-label association
10. Status labels everywhere — new StatusPill component (no existing
class found in survey); add to design-system/preview/components-
status-pills.html. Pill states: Ready / Recording / Paused /
Transcribing / Cleaning / Extracting tasks / Saved / Exported /
Needs review / Failed safely
OUT OF SCOPE (the traps to refuse — each ships in v0.2 or later):
- New visual identity (brand book v3 PDF is locked)
- New navigation model
- Garden Inbox (review cards, routing, accept/edit/park/archive,
related notes, backlinks, P-P-T detection)
- Suggested routing
- Backlinks
- Graph view
- Canvas view
- New animation system
- Full SettingsPage 7-group redesign
- Obsidian plugin
- Cloud / provider UI
Plus a "Definition of done" with 8 specific completion criteria, and
cross-references to checklist + Garden roadmap + how-built + design-
system preview + locked brand book.
VERIFICATION
============
- cargo fmt --check: clean (no Rust touched)
- All four release docs cross-reference cleanly
- No new tests required (boundary docs, not code)
- v0.1 ship gate unchanged in shape, sharpened in detail
