+# Implementation Plan: Code Path & Data Pipeline Analysis (code_path_analysis_20260507)
+
+## Phase 1: Structural Exploration & Tooling Setup
+- [ ] Task: Initialize `PIPELINE_ANALYSIS.md` template.
+- [ ] Task: Deploy `codebase_investigator` subagents to identify top-level entry points in `gui_2.py` and `simulation/`.
+- [ ] Task: Verify usage of existing tree-sitter tools to generate initial call-graph skeletons for `./src`.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 1' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 2: Mapping Core Source Pipelines (`./src`)
+- [ ] Task: Map the **Context Aggregation Pipeline** (`aggregate.py`, `models.py`).
+- [ ] Task: Map the **AI Interaction Loop** (`ai_client.py`, `mcp_client.py`, `shell_runner.py`).
+- [ ] Task: Map the **GUI Event & State Pipeline** (`gui_2.py`, `app_controller.py`).
+- [ ] Task: Document data responsibilities and state boundaries for each route.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 2' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 3: Mapping Simulation Pipelines (`./simulation`)
+- [ ] Task: Map the **Simulation Lifecycle** (`sim_base.py`, `sim_context.py`, `workflow_sim.py`).
+- [ ] Task: Analyze data flow between `sim_ai_settings.py` and the execution engine.
+- [ ] Task: Document the "Verification & Checkpointing" route in simulations.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 3' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 4: Synthesis & Reporting
+- [ ] Task: Consolidate all findings into Mermaid diagrams within `PIPELINE_ANALYSIS.md`.
+- [ ] Task: Identify specific "Curation Targets" (redundancies, style violations) for the next track.
+- [ ] Task: Final review and hand-off to Track 2 (Codebase Curation).
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 4' (Protocol in workflow.md)

+# Specification: Code Path & Data Pipeline Analysis (code_path_analysis_20260507)
+
+## Overview
+A deep architectural audit focused on mapping the "processing routes" and "data pipelines" of the Manual Slop codebase. This analysis will treat the program as a series of data-driven pipelines (similar to Ryan Fleury's model), identifying exactly how data flows through `./src` and `./simulation`.
+
+## Scope
+- **Core Codebase:** `./src`
+- **Simulation Infrastructure:** `./simulation`
+- **Granularity:** Both high-level module interactions and detailed function-to-function execution flows.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+1.  **Pipeline Mapping:**
+    - Identify major execution "routes" (e.g., UI Event Loop, AI Tool-Call Loop, Context Aggregation Pipeline).
+    - Map these routes from entry point to terminal state.
+2.  **Data Responsibility Audit:**
+    - For every major path, define which data structures it owns, modifies, or depends upon.
+    - Identify state boundaries and potential "data leaks" or redundant processing.
+3.  **Simulation Pipeline Audit:**
+    - Fully map the lifecycle of a simulation: State Setup -> Agent Injection -> Execution Loop -> Verification -> Cleanup.
+4.  **Automated Extraction:**
+    - Utilize MCP tools and potentially custom `tree-sitter` scripts to verify call graphs and data dependencies.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Comprehensive `PIPELINE_ANALYSIS.md` report created in the root.
+- [ ] Mermaid flowcharts documenting every major processing route.
+- [ ] Data responsibility table for all mapped paths.
+- [ ] Full mapping of the `./simulation` pipeline.
