ICW-E2S01T17-Implementation-Plan: FR-077 IPW-built Task Status Transition and Kboard Sync

Task: E2:S01:T17
Related FR: FR-077
Host Task: T17-ipw-built-task-status-transition-and-kboard-sync-fr077.md
Created: 2026-04-09

Build Plan​

  1. Define lifecycle policy surface

    • Codify explicit transition conditions for TODO, IN PROGRESS, and COMPLETE.
    • Anchor policy in RW/IPW governance docs with clear ownership statements.

  2. Add IPW transition intent contract

    • Extend IPW artifact guidance with status-transition intent/checklist fields.
    • Clarify how implementation sessions consume this intent.

  3. Define synchronization ownership

    • Specify authoritative workflow step(s) for propagating task status to kboard and related board views.
    • Ensure no ambiguous overlap between IPW, implementation flow, and RW/UKW.

  4. Implement drift-detection mechanism

    • Add validator/audit logic or checklist path to detect implemented-but-TODO mismatches.
    • Ensure deterministic, actionable diagnostics.

  5. Integrate and validate

    • Validate policy/docs/tooling coherence with scenario matrix.
    • Confirm atomic update expectation is represented in process and tests.

  6. Final hardening

    • Document rollback strategy for over-aggressive transition behavior.
    • Ensure migration notes for existing tasks with stale states.

Integration Touchpoints​

  • packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/KB/Documentation/Developer_Docs/vwmp/implementation-planning-workflow-agent-execution.md
  • packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/docs/documentation/Developer_Docs/vwmp/release-workflow-agent-execution.md
  • docs/project-management/kanban/kboard.md
  • docs/project-management/kanban/fbuboard.md
  • Existing validation/audit scripts in packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/scripts/validation/

Rollback and Recovery​

  • Introduce transition enforcement in staged increments with clear fallback behavior.
  • Preserve manual override guidance for ambiguous evidence conditions.
  • If false positives occur, revert to previous non-enforcing mode while retaining audit reporting.

Exit Criteria​

  • FR-077 AC-1 through AC-4 are mapped to implemented behavior and verification evidence.
  • Transition ownership and timing are consistent across IPW/RW/UKW docs.
  • Drift detection reliably reports stale TODO states after implementation evidence.
  • Atomic task-doc/kboard synchronization requirement is operationalized.

Evidence Checklist​

  • Transition contract published and linked from relevant workflow docs.
  • IPW transition intent/checklist integrated and documented.
  • Synchronization ownership and timing documented without contradictions.
  • Drift detection check implemented and tested.
  • Regression scenarios pass for planning-only, implementation-start, and completion states.

Handoff Notes​

Use this ICW package as the implementation planning source of truth for FR-077. Keep FR/task/story wiring synchronized in each change set and capture edge-case policy decisions directly in task notes prior to release.
