Epic 7, Story 0: UXR Repo (HISTORICAL REGISTRY - DEPRECATED FOR NEW INTAKE)

Status: IN PROGRESS (HISTORICAL REGISTRY)
Priority: HIGH
Last updated: 2026-03-31 (RW -k E7:S00:T04 v0.7.0.4+0; prior T03 v0.7.0.3+0; T02 v0.7.0.2+2; epic/5 merge main preserves anchor docs T01/T02/T05)
Estimated Effort: N/A (Perpetual repository)
Started: 2026-01-05
Completed: N/A (Perpetual - never completes)
Version: v0.7.0.0+0
Code: E7S00

Story Type: Repository (HISTORICAL REGISTRY)
Build Warning Suppression: true
Explanation: This story now serves as a historical UXR anchor registry. Under FR-072 Approach D, new intake should not create net-new primary tasks here; use semantic host-story placement and keep this story for legacy traceability.

Task Checklist​

Migration state: Historical registry only. Do not add new primary intake tasks here.

Overview​

This is the User Experience Research Repository (UXR Repo) for Epic 7. All User Experience Research reports (UXRs) are tracked as tasks in this repository story, establishing perfect 1:1 traceability between UXR numbers and task numbers.

Repository Pattern:

  • UXR-001 → E7:S00:T01 (abstract space: v0.7.0.1+0)
  • UXR-002 → E7:S00:T02 (abstract space: v0.7.0.2+0)
  • UXR-003 → E7:S00:T03 (abstract space: v0.7.0.3+0)
  • And so on...

Bidirectional Traceability:

  • UXR-001 → E7:S00:T01 → v0.7.0.1+0
  • E7:S00:T01 → UXR-001
  • v0.7.0.1+0 → E7:S00:T01 → UXR-001

Goals​

  • Repository story created (PERPETUAL)
  • Abstract space established (v0.7.0.0+0)
  • Traceability pattern documented (UXR-001 = E7:S00:T01)
  • Intake workflow assigns UXRs to S00:Txx (E4:S12:T06)
  • Board display logic omits S00 from epic checklists (E4:S12:T05)

Repository Pattern​

Traceability Mapping​

User Experience Research → Task Mapping:

  • Each UXR gets assigned to the next available task number in this repository story
  • UXR-001 = E7:S00:T01
  • UXR-002 = E7:S00:T02
  • UXR-003 = E7:S00:T03
  • Pattern continues indefinitely

Version Mapping:

  • Repository story: v0.7.0.0+0 (abstract space)
  • First UXR: v0.7.0.1+0 (E7:S00:T01)
  • Second UXR: v0.7.0.2+0 (E7:S00:T02)
  • Third UXR: v0.7.0.3+0 (E7:S00:T03)

Intake Workflow Integration:

  • When UXR-001 is filed, intake workflow assigns it to E7:S00:T01
  • Intake workflow then analyzes UXR-001 content and assigns implementation work to appropriate epic/story
  • Traceability bridge: E7:S00:T01 → Implementation work (e.g., E12:S03:T05)

PERPETUAL State​

Status: IN PROGRESS (PERPETUAL)

Characteristics:

  • Repository stories never complete
  • Excluded from completion analytics
  • Omitted from epic checklist displays in board views (UX optimization)
  • Still tracked internally in Epic 7 document

Rationale:

  • Repository stories are containers, not work units
  • They grow indefinitely (UXR-001 through UXR-999+)
  • Completion is not meaningful for repositories
  • Board display omission reduces clutter (100+ tasks in S00)

Board Display​

Note: This story (E7:S00) is omitted from epic checklist displays in board views to reduce clutter. It is still tracked internally in the Epic 7 document.

Display Rules:

  • Epic 7 Story Checklist: S00 omitted from board views
  • Epic 7 document: S00 included in internal Story Checklist
  • Kanban board: S00 not shown in Epic 7 section
  • Quick view board: S00 not shown in Epic 7 section

Meta-Grouping Support​

Meta-Grouping Pattern:

  • Implementation stories can reference repository tasks for grouping
  • Example: E7:S02 "UX Research Findings" → References: E7:S00:T05, T12, T23
  • Task numbers only (no UXR numbers in meta-grouping)
  • UXR traceability via task if needed

Notes​

  • This repository story is PERPETUAL and will never be marked as COMPLETE
  • Tasks in this repository are created automatically by the intake workflow
  • Each UXR gets a unique task number (T01, T02, T03, etc.)
  • Version numbers follow abstract space pattern (v0.7.0.1+0, v0.7.0.2+0, etc.)
  • Board display omission is intentional (UX optimization)
