Project Tracks

This file tracks all major tracks for the project. Each track has its own detailed plan in its respective folder (or in ../archive/<track_name>/ for completed tracks).

Structure:

• Active Tracks (Current Queue): In-flight and unblocked work the implementer can pick up today.
• Standby / Pending Spec: Tracks with spec TBD or pending decision.
• Full project history: see chronology.md (the canonical index of all tracks: active, shipped, superseded, abandoned, sorted newest-first with git-history-evidence-backed status).

Archive directories live at ../archive/<track_name>/ (from this file's location at conductor/tracks.md).

Active Tracks (Current Queue)

Tracks that are unblocked and ready to start. Ordered by dependency (blocked-by first) and priority (A foundational → D forward-looking).

Full project history: see chronology.md — the canonical index of all tracks (active, shipped, superseded, abandoned), sorted newest-first, with git-history-evidence-backed status per row. Maintained manually (the generator scripts were deleted 2026-07-05 after repeated corruption incidents).

Notes

Archive link convention: ./archive/... paths resolve to conductor/archive/... (this file is at conductor/tracks.md).

Status legend:

• [ ] not started
• [~] in progress
• [x] completed (track may still be in tracks/ or may have been moved to archive/)
• ~~**...**~~ struck-through (renamed/replaced/superseded)

Naming convention: Each track's spec.md and plan.md (where present) follow the project's standard format: spec.md for design intent (the "why"), plan.md for executable tasks (the "how").

Editing this file: When you mark a track as [x] and move its folder to archive/, remove its row from the Active Tracks table (its history is in chronology.md). When you start a new track, create the folder under tracks/ first, then add the entry to the Active Tracks table.

Archiving a track (3 steps): When a track ships and its folder moves from conductor/tracks/<id>/ to conductor/archive/<id>/, complete all 3 steps in order:

1. Move the folder: git mv conductor/tracks/<id> conductor/archive/<id> (preserves history as a rename).
2. Remove the row from this file (conductor/tracks.md).
3. Add a row to conductor/chronology.md (top of the table, newest-first) summarizing the track: Date, ID, Status, one-line Summary, Folder path, commit Range. Commit with docs(chronology): add row for <track-id> archive. (Chronology is maintained manually as of 2026-07-05 — the generator scripts were deleted after repeated corruption incidents.)
