## Open TODO Index
> **For AI agents:** Scan this table, pick the next unresolved TODO by priority, and address it.
> Search the codebase for `TODO-NNN` to find the in-code comment with full instructions.
> After completing a TODO, remove it from this table and mark the corresponding roadmap checkbox.
| TODO | Priority | Phase | File(s) | Summary |
|------|----------|-------|---------|---------|
| **TODO-001** | medium | 0 | `web/src/app/providers.tsx` | Kill switch maintenance banner — create ``, set React state when `checkKillSwitch()` returns `disabled=true`, disable timer creation buttons |
| **TODO-002** | medium | 0 | `web/src/app/(app)/settings/page.tsx` (create) | Wire feedback button into settings page (or floating FAB) using `feedbackClient` from `web/src/lib/feedback.ts` |

### MCP Server Integration (Important)
The centralized **MCP server** (`learning_ai_common_plat/services/mcp-server`, port 4007) **already has ChronoMind tools**:
- `chronomind.timers.create` / `.list` / `.delete`
- `chronomind.routines.list` / `.validate`
- `chronomind.syncStatus`
- `chronomind.sharedTimers.share`
- `chronomind.households.list`
These proxy to `chronomind-backend` (port 4011) via `chronomind-client.ts`.
**Architecture for new MCP tools:**
1. **Backend** (port 4011): Add new REST endpoints (planner, agent-actions, reschedule, availability, context-message)
2. **MCP Server** (port 4007): Extend `chronomind-tools.ts` + `chronomind-client.ts` to expose new endpoints as MCP tools
3. **Product backend does NOT host its own MCP layer** — all MCP goes through the centralized server

---
## Phase 0 — Ecosystem Gap Fixes
> **Goal:** Bring ChronoMind into full compliance with the @bytelyst ecosystem before adding new features.
> **Why first:** These are production-safety and consistency gaps. Fixing them first prevents new code from repeating the same gaps.
### 0.1 — Kill Switch Client (Web)
- [x] `web/src/lib/kill-switch.ts` — integrate `@bytelyst/kill-switch-client` (commit: f3e14e2)
- Same pattern as NomGap/NoteLett: `createKillSwitchClient({ baseUrl, productId, platform })`
- Check on app init → if killed, show maintenance banner and disable timer creation
- Add `pnpm add @bytelyst/kill-switch-client` to web/package.json
- [x] Wire into `web/src/app/providers.tsx` — init on mount (commit: f3e14e2)
### 0.2 — Feedback Client (Web)
- [x] `web/src/lib/feedback.ts` — integrate `@bytelyst/feedback-client` (commit: f3e14e2)
- `createFeedbackClient({ baseUrl, productId, getAccessToken })`
- [ ] Add feedback button to settings page (or floating FAB) (commit: )
- TODO-002: Wire feedback button into settings page using `feedbackClient` from `web/src/lib/feedback.ts`
### 0.3 — Accessibility Package (Web)
- [x] Add `@bytelyst/accessibility` to web/package.json (commit: f3e14e2)
- [ ] Integrate helpers into existing modals (commit: )
- TODO-003: Apply `@bytelyst/accessibility` focus trap + screen reader to CreateTimerModal, AlarmOverlay

```
'mcp.enabled': false,
'planner.enabled': false,
'agent_inbox.enabled': false,
'tempo.enabled': false,
'routine_suggestions.enabled': false,
'ai_context_messages.enabled': false,
'webhooks.zapier': false,
```
- [ ] Gate all new backend routes behind their respective flags (ongoing — applied per-route as built)
### 0.5 — Telemetry Events for New Features
- [x] Define telemetry event names for all new features (commit: f3e14e2)
- `mcp.tool_executed`, `mcp.tool_failed`
- `planner.day_planned`, `planner.plan_applied`, `planner.plan_rejected`
- `agent_inbox.action_approved`, `agent_inbox.action_rejected`, `agent_inbox.batch_approved`

- `routine_suggest.shown`, `routine_suggest.accepted`, `routine_suggest.dismissed`
- `ai_context.enriched`, `ai_context.fallback_used`
- `webhook.dispatched`, `webhook.failed`
- [ ] Add `trackEvent()` calls in backend routes and web components as they're built (ongoing through all phases)
### Phase 0 Exit Criteria
- [x] Kill switch client initialized on web app startup (f3e14e2)
- [x] Feedback client created (f3e14e2) — UI entry point deferred to TODO-002
- [x] Accessibility package added (f3e14e2) — modal integration deferred to TODO-003
- [x] 7 new feature flags registered (all default `false`) (f3e14e2)
- [x] Telemetry event names defined (16 events, backend + web) (f3e14e2)
- [x] All existing tests still pass (182 backend + 394 web)
---
## Phase A — MCP Backend Endpoints + MCP Server Extension + AI Context Messages
> **Goal:** Let any AI agent create, query, reschedule, and dismiss timers via the centralized MCP server. Upgrade context messages with LLM fallback.
> **Why first:** This is the single most differentiating feature for 2026. It positions ChronoMind as infrastructure, not just an app.
**Architecture:** Two-layer approach (see "MCP Server Integration" above):
- **Layer 1 (this repo):** New REST endpoints in `backend/src/modules/` — standard Fastify routes
- **Layer 2 (common-plat):** Extend `mcp-server/src/modules/chronomind/` to proxy new endpoints as MCP tools
### A.1 — New Backend REST Endpoints (chronomind-backend, port 4011)
Add 4 new endpoint groups to the product backend. These are plain REST routes — NOT MCP tools:
- [x] `backend/src/modules/timers/routes.ts` — add reschedule + availability endpoints (commit: 686f5fb)
- `POST /api/timers/:id/reschedule` — shift timer by delta or to new time
- `GET /api/timers/availability?start=&end=&minSlotMinutes=` — find free slots
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('mcp.enabled')` flag
- [x] `backend/src/modules/routines/routes.ts` — add start-routine endpoint (commit: 686f5fb)
- `POST /api/routines/:id/start` — start a routine template (changes status → running)
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('mcp.enabled')` flag
- [x] Tests for new timer + routine endpoints (commit: 29a4802)
### A.2 — Agent Action Audit Trail (New Backend Module)
- [x] `backend/src/modules/agent-actions/types.ts` — Zod schemas (commit: 29a4802)
- Fields: `id`, `userId`, `productId`, `actorId`, `actorType` (agent/user/mcp), `toolName`, `actionType`, `state` (proposed/approved/applied/rejected), `reason`, `payload`, `createdAt`
- Every Cosmos doc includes `productId: "chronomind"`
- [x] `backend/src/modules/agent-actions/repository.ts` — CRUD (commit: 29a4802)
- Container: `cm_agent_actions`, partition: `/userId`
- Uses `@bytelyst/datastore` `getCollection()` — never direct Cosmos SDK
- [x] `backend/src/modules/agent-actions/routes.ts` — REST endpoints (commit: 29a4802)
- `GET /api/agent-actions` — list (filterable by state, actorId, toolName)
- `POST /api/agent-actions` — create action (used by MCP tools)
- `POST /api/agent-actions/:id/approve` — approve proposed action
- `POST /api/agent-actions/:id/reject` — reject proposed action
- `POST /api/agent-actions/batch-approve` — batch approve by actorId
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('agent_inbox.enabled')` flag
- [x] Register `agentActionRoutes` in `server.ts` (commit: 29a4802)
- [x] Register `cm_agent_actions` container in `cosmos-init.ts` (commit: 29a4802)
- [x] Agent action tests — 22 tests (commit: 29a4802)
### A.3 — Extend Centralized MCP Server (common-plat)
Extend `learning_ai_common_plat/services/mcp-server/src/modules/chronomind/`:
- [x] `chronomind-client.ts` — add 6 client functions for new endpoints (commit: efde14ba in common-plat)
- `chronomindTimerReschedule`, `chronomindTimerAvailability`, `chronomindRoutineStart`
- `chronomindAgentActionCreate`, `chronomindAgentActionsList`, `chronomindAgentActionApprove`
- [x] `chronomind-tools.ts` — register 5 new MCP tools (commit: efde14ba in common-plat)
- `chronomind.timers.reschedule` — shift timer by delta or to new time
- `chronomind.timers.availability` — find free time slots
- `chronomind.routines.start` — start a routine template
- `chronomind.agentActions.list` — list pending agent actions
- `chronomind.agentActions.approve` — approve a proposed action
- Write tools (reschedule, routines.start) record agent action for audit trail (fail-open)
- [ ] MCP tool tests (commit: )
- TODO-007: Add integration tests for the 5 new ChronoMind MCP tools in common-plat
### A.4 — Context-Aware AI Messages (LLM upgrade)
Upgrade `web/src/lib/context-messages.ts` with optional LLM enrichment:
- [x] `backend/src/lib/ai-context.ts` — LLM-powered context message generator (commit: c80c1e4)
- Accepts: timer label, category, urgency, user's recent timers, time of day
- Returns: enriched prep message with source indicator (llm/keyword/generic)
- Falls back to keyword rules if LLM unavailable or flag off
- Calls extraction-service `timer-context` task when EXTRACTION_SERVICE_URL is set
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('ai_context_messages.enabled')` flag
- [x] Backend route: `POST /api/context-message` (commit: c80c1e4)
- [x] `web/src/lib/context-messages.ts` — add `fetchEnrichedMessage()` (commit: c80c1e4)
- Graceful degradation: keyword rules remain primary, LLM messages shown as "AI suggestion"
- TODO-008: Wire trackEvent() calls for ai_context.enriched / ai_context.fallback_used
- [ ] Tests for AI context generation (commit: )
- TODO-009: Add unit tests for generateContextMessage() and fetchEnrichedMessage()
### Phase A Exit Criteria
- [x] 3 new REST endpoints in chronomind-backend (reschedule, availability, routine start) (686f5fb)
- [x] Agent action module with full CRUD + batch approve (29a4802)
- [x] 5 new MCP tools registered in centralized mcp-server (efde14ba in common-plat)
- [x] Context messages enriched by LLM with keyword fallback (c80c1e4)
- [x] All gated behind feature flags (default off) (f3e14e2)
- [ ] Telemetry events defined but trackEvent() calls needed in routes (ongoing)
- [x] All existing tests still pass (219 backend + 394 web)
- [x] No breaking changes to existing timer/routine APIs
---
## Phase B — AI Day Planner + Agent Inbox UI
> **Goal:** "Plan my day" command + web UI for reviewing agent-proposed timers.
> **Depends on:** Phase A (MCP tools + agent actions module).
### B.1 — Day Planner Engine (Backend)
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/planner/types.ts` — Zod schemas for plan requests/responses (commit: )
- `PlanDayRequest`: activities array (label, duration, priority, category, constraints)
- `PlanDayResponse`: proposed timeline (timer array with computed times, urgency, cascades)
- `PlanConstraint`: "after 2pm", "before lunch", "back-to-back with X", "needs 15m break between"
- Every Cosmos doc includes `productId: "chronomind"`
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/planner/engine.ts` — deterministic slot-fitting algorithm (commit: )
- Step 1: Load existing timers for the target day
- Step 2: Compute available slots (gaps between timers)
- Step 3: Fit requested activities into slots respecting constraints + priority order
- Step 4: Assign urgency based on keywords/category (reuse `context-messages` rules)
- Step 5: Assign cascade presets based on urgency (reuse `cascade.ts` defaults)
- Step 6: Add prep time buffers (reuse `prep-time.ts` logic)
- Returns: ordered timer list with `state: 'proposed'` — not yet committed
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/planner/routes.ts` — REST endpoints (commit: )
- `POST /api/planner/plan-day` — generate proposed plan (does NOT create timers)
- `POST /api/planner/apply` — commit proposed plan (creates timers + agent action records)
- `POST /api/planner/replan` — modify an existing plan with new constraints
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('planner.enabled')` flag
- Track `planner.day_planned` / `planner.plan_applied` telemetry events
- Use `req.log` for logging — never `console.log`
- [ ] Planner engine tests (commit: )
- Test: empty day → all activities fit
- Test: busy day → overflow reported with alternatives
- Test: constraints respected (after/before/back-to-back)
- Test: prep time buffers added correctly
### B.2 — Day Planner NL Interface
- [ ] Backend NL → plan translation (commit: )
- `POST /api/planner/plan-nl` — accepts natural language ("prep slides 2h, standup 30m, lunch, deep coding 3h — plan my afternoon")
- Parses via `@bytelyst/extraction` client to extraction-service, or regex-based NL parser (ported from web `nl-parser.ts`)
- Returns same `PlanDayResponse` as structured endpoint
- [ ] Tests for NL plan parsing (commit: )
### B.2b — Extend MCP Server with Planner Tools (common-plat)
- [ ] `chronomind-client.ts` — add planner client functions (commit: )
- `chronomindPlanDay(request, opts)`, `chronomindApplyPlan(planId, opts)`, `chronomindPlanNl(text, opts)`
- [ ] `chronomind-tools.ts` — register 2 new MCP tools (commit: )
- `chronomind.planner.planDay` — generate proposed plan from activities
- `chronomind.planner.planNl` — generate proposed plan from natural language
### B.3 — Agent Inbox (Web UI)
- [ ] `web/src/components/AgentInbox.tsx` — review queue for agent-proposed timers (commit: )
- Use `@bytelyst/ui` components: Card, Badge, Button, Toast — never build custom equivalents
- List all `state: 'proposed'` agent actions
- Show: agent name, reason, proposed timer details, timestamp
- Actions: Approve, Reject, Modify then Approve
- Batch approve: "Accept all from [agent]"
- Trust level badge per agent (auto-approve toggle)
- Every interactive element must have `aria-label` or visible text label
- Colors via `--cm-*` CSS custom properties — never hardcode hex values
- Track `agent_inbox.action_approved` / `.action_rejected` / `.batch_approved` telemetry
- [ ] `web/src/lib/agent-client.ts` — typed API client for agent actions (commit: )
- `listAgentActions(filters)`, `approveAction(id)`, `rejectAction(id)`, `batchApprove(actorId)`
- [ ] `web/src/app/(app)/inbox/page.tsx` — agent inbox page route (commit: )
- [ ] Sidebar navigation: add "Inbox" nav item with unread badge count (commit: )
- [ ] Tests for agent inbox (commit: )
### B.4 — Day Planner UI (Web)
- [ ] `web/src/components/DayPlanner.tsx` — plan-my-day interface (commit: )
- Use `@bytelyst/ui` components: Card, Button, Badge, Toast — never build custom equivalents
- NL input bar: "Plan my afternoon" → calls `/api/planner/plan-nl`
- Structured form fallback: add activities with duration + constraints
- Timeline preview: visual preview of proposed plan alongside existing timers
- "Apply Plan" button → creates all timers at once + fire `@bytelyst/celebrations` confetti on success
- "Edit" per-item before applying (change time, urgency, cascade)
- Overflow warnings: "3 activities don't fit — 2h overflow. Suggestions: extend day, shorten activities, move to tomorrow"
- Every interactive element must have `aria-label` or visible text label
- Colors via `--cm-*` CSS custom properties — never hardcode hex values
- [ ] `web/src/lib/planner-client.ts` — typed API client for planner (commit: )
- [ ] `web/src/app/(app)/planner/page.tsx` — planner page route (commit: )
- [ ] Sidebar navigation: add "Plan Day" nav item (commit: )
### Phase B Exit Criteria
- [ ] `POST /api/planner/plan-day` returns valid proposed timeline
- [ ] NL input parses multi-activity requests correctly
- [ ] 2 new MCP tools in centralized mcp-server (planDay, planNl)
- [ ] Agent inbox shows proposed timers with approve/reject/batch actions
- [ ] Day planner UI shows timeline preview with apply/edit controls
- [ ] All UI uses `@bytelyst/ui` components + `--cm-*` tokens + `aria-label`
- [ ] All gated behind feature flags, telemetry events tracked
- [ ] All existing tests still pass
- [ ] New tests cover planner engine, NL parsing, agent client

## Phase C — Webhook Event Wiring + @bytelyst/event-store + Zapier Compatibility
> **Goal:** Wire lifecycle events into the existing webhook dispatcher, add domain event persistence via `@bytelyst/event-store`, and add Zapier-compatible endpoints.
> **Can run in parallel with Phase D.**
**Note:** The webhook dispatcher is already **fully functional** — HMAC-SHA256 signing, exponential backoff retries, event logging, auto-disable after failures. No hardening needed. The gaps are: (1) no lifecycle events actually call the dispatcher, (2) no domain event persistence, (3) no Zapier-compatible format.
### C.1 — Domain Event Store Integration
- [ ] Add `@bytelyst/event-store` dependency to backend (commit: )
- [ ] `backend/src/lib/events.ts` — create event store singleton + `emitDomainEvent()` helper (commit: )
- Uses `MemoryEventStore` (or `FileEventStore` for local persistence)
- All domain events flow through this — webhook dispatcher subscribes to it
- Event shape: `{ type, userId, productId, payload, timestamp, correlationId }`
### C.2 — Wire Lifecycle Events into Dispatcher
This is the main missing piece — timer/routine state changes should emit events:
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/timers/routes.ts` — emit events on state transitions (commit: )
- `timer.created` on POST create
- `timer.fired` / `timer.completed` / `timer.dismissed` / `timer.snoozed` / `timer.paused` / `timer.resumed` on state change
- Each event calls `emitDomainEvent()` which fans out to webhook dispatcher
- Track `webhook.dispatched` / `webhook.failed` telemetry
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/routines/routes.ts` — emit events (commit: )
- `routine.started` / `routine.completed` / `routine.step_completed`
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/households/routes.ts` — emit events (commit: )
- `household.member_joined` / `household.member_left`
- [ ] `backend/src/modules/shared-timers/routes.ts` — emit events (commit: )
- `shared_timer.created` / `shared_timer.fired` / `shared_timer.acknowledged`
- [ ] Tests for event emission + webhook dispatch integration (commit: )
### C.3 — Zapier-Compatible Webhook Format
- [ ] Zapier REST hook endpoints (commit: )
- `GET /api/webhooks/zapier/subscribe` — Zapier registers its callback URL
- `DELETE /api/webhooks/zapier/unsubscribe` — Zapier unregisters
- `GET /api/webhooks/zapier/sample` — sample payloads per event type (Zapier trigger testing)
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('webhooks.zapier')` flag
- [ ] Document webhook payload schemas in `docs/WEBHOOK_API.md` (commit: )
### C.4 — Webhook Management UI (Web)
- [ ] `web/src/components/WebhookManager.tsx` — manage webhook subscriptions (commit: )
- Use `@bytelyst/ui` components: Card, Button, Badge, Toast
- Create subscription: URL, secret, event types (multi-select from 15 event types)
- List subscriptions with status (active, paused, failed)
- Delivery log per subscription
- Test button: fire a test event
- Every interactive element must have `aria-label` or visible text label
- Colors via `--cm-*` CSS custom properties
- [ ] `web/src/lib/webhook-client.ts` — typed API client (commit: )
- [ ] Add to settings page or new `/settings/webhooks` route (commit: )
### Phase C Exit Criteria
- [ ] Domain events emitted on all 15 lifecycle state changes
- [ ] Events persisted via `@bytelyst/event-store`
- [ ] Webhook dispatcher called automatically on domain events
- [ ] Zapier subscribe/unsubscribe/sample endpoints work
- [ ] Webhook management UI in web app with `@bytelyst/ui` components
- [ ] All gated behind feature flags, telemetry events tracked
- [ ] All existing tests still pass
---
## Phase D — Smart Routine Suggestions + Tempo Mode
> **Goal:** Proactive intelligence — suggest routines from patterns + adjust pacing when behind schedule.
> **Can run in parallel with Phase C.**
### D.1 — Smart Routine Suggestions (Web Engine)
Build on existing `adaptive-snooze.ts` pattern detection approach:
- [ ] `web/src/lib/routine-suggestions.ts` — pattern detection engine (commit: )
- Scan timer history for recurring sequences (same labels/categories within similar time windows)
- Group by day-of-week patterns (weekday vs weekend)
- Min threshold: 3 occurrences of same sequence before suggesting
- Output: `RoutineSuggestion { name, steps[], confidence, occurrences, dayPattern }`
- Pure TS engine — no React imports, testable with Vitest
- [ ] `web/src/lib/routine-suggestions.test.ts` — tests (commit: )
- Test: 3x "coffee → standup → email" on weekdays → suggests "Weekday Morning" routine
- Test: fewer than 3 occurrences → no suggestion
- Test: weekend vs weekday patterns differentiated
- Test: overlapping sequences handled (longest match wins)
### D.2 — Routine Suggestions UI
- [ ] `web/src/components/RoutineSuggestionCard.tsx` — dismissable suggestion card (commit: )
- Use `@bytelyst/ui` components: Card, Button, Badge — never build custom equivalents
- Shows on dashboard when suggestions available
- "Create Routine" → opens RoutineEditor pre-filled + fire `@bytelyst/celebrations` on creation
- "Dismiss" → hide for 7 days
- "Never suggest this" → permanent dismiss for this pattern
- Every interactive element must have `aria-label` or visible text label
- Colors via `--cm-*` CSS custom properties
- Track `routine_suggest.shown` / `.accepted` / `.dismissed` telemetry
- [ ] Wire into `Dashboard.tsx` below the quick timer bar (commit: )
- [ ] Store dismissed suggestions in localStorage (commit: )
### D.3 — Tempo Mode Engine (Web)
- [ ] `web/src/lib/tempo.ts` — pace monitoring engine (commit: )
- Track: actual timer completion/dismissal times vs scheduled times
- Detect: running behind by >10 minutes (configurable threshold)
- Generate `TempoSuggestion`:
- Option A: Compress next N timers by X minutes each
- Option B: Skip lowest-priority timer
- Option C: Push remaining timers back by delay amount
- Option D: Extend day (shift evening timers)
- Consider energy/mood if check-in data available
- Pure TS engine — no React imports, testable with Vitest
- Gate behind `isFeatureEnabled('tempo.enabled')` (checked in UI, engine is pure)
- [ ] `web/src/lib/tempo.test.ts` — tests (commit: )
- Test: 20 min behind → 3 options generated
- Test: on-time → no suggestions
- Test: critical timers never suggested for compression
- Test: mood data influences suggestions ("low energy → suggest skip gym")
### D.4 — Tempo Mode UI
- [ ] `web/src/components/TempoBar.tsx` — pace indicator bar (commit: )
- Use `@bytelyst/ui` Badge for status + `@bytelyst/gentle-notifications` for soft pace warnings
- Shows current pace: "On track", "10 min behind", "30 min behind"
- Color: green → yellow → red based on delay (using `--cm-*` tokens)
- Expandable: shows suggestion options when behind
- Actions: accept suggestion → auto-apply reschedule via `POST /api/timers/:id/reschedule`
- Every interactive element must have `aria-label` or visible text label
- Track `tempo.drift_detected` / `tempo.adjustment_applied` telemetry
- [ ] Wire into Dashboard header area (commit: )
- [ ] Gentle notification when pace shifts from green to yellow (via `@bytelyst/gentle-notifications`) (commit: )
### Phase D Exit Criteria
- [ ] Routine suggestions detect patterns from timer history
- [ ] Suggestion card appears on dashboard with create/dismiss actions using `@bytelyst/ui`
- [ ] Tempo engine detects schedule drift and generates adjustment options
- [ ] Tempo bar shows pace status with actionable suggestions
- [ ] Gentle notifications for pace warnings via `@bytelyst/gentle-notifications`
- [ ] Celebrations on routine creation via `@bytelyst/celebrations`
- [ ] All gated behind feature flags, telemetry events tracked
- [ ] All existing tests still pass
- [ ] New engine tests cover edge cases

## Phase E — Client-Side Sync Integration
> **Goal:** Make cross-device sync actually work end-to-end (Web ↔ Backend ↔ iOS ↔ Android).
> **Depends on:** All other phases (uses the APIs they create).
### E.1 — Web Sync Manager Activation
`platform-sync.ts` already has full sync code. Wire it into the app lifecycle:
- [ ] `web/src/lib/use-sync.ts` — verify/fix the React hook that triggers sync (commit: )
- Auto-sync on app launch (if authenticated + sync enabled)
- Auto-sync on timer create/update/delete (debounced, 5s)
- Manual sync button in settings
- Sync status indicator: "Last synced 2m ago" / "Syncing..." / "Offline (3 queued)"
- Handle pulled timers: merge into Zustand store (upsert by ID, respect syncVersion)
- Handle conflicts: server-wins for now, show conflict toast
- [ ] `web/src/app/(app)/settings/page.tsx` — add sync section (commit: )
- Toggle: "Enable cross-device sync"
- Sign in / sign out (via `@bytelyst/react-auth`)
- Sync status display
- "Sync Now" button
- "Clear local data" button
- [ ] Web sync integration tests (commit: )
### E.2 — iOS Sync Manager
- [ ] `ios/ChronoMind/Shared/Cloud/PlatformSyncManager.swift` — verify/complete REST sync client (commit: )
- Uses existing `BLSyncEngine` from ByteLystPlatformSDK (or direct REST if SDK not ready)
- Pull delta: `GET /timers/sync?since=` + `GET /routines/sync?since=`
- Push batch: `POST /timers/batch` + `POST /routines/batch`
- Map between `CMTimer` ↔ `SyncTimerDTO` (same shape as web DTOs)
- Offline queue: persist pending changes in UserDefaults
- Auto-sync on app foreground + after timer changes
- [ ] Wire into `TimerStore.swift` — sync on state changes (commit: )
- [ ] Settings UI: sync toggle + sign in + last sync time (commit: )
- [ ] iOS sync tests (commit: )
### E.3 — Android Sync Manager
- [ ] `android/app/.../sync/SyncRepository.kt` — verify/complete REST sync client (commit: )
- Same delta sync + batch upsert pattern as iOS/web
- Map between `TimerEntity` ↔ `SyncTimerDTO`
- Offline queue in Room database (or SharedPreferences)
- WorkManager for background sync (periodic, 15m interval)
- [ ] Wire into `TimerViewModel.kt` — sync on state changes (commit: )
- [ ] Settings screen: sync toggle + sign in + last sync time (commit: )
- [ ] Android sync tests (commit: )
### E.4 — Auth Flow (All Platforms)
- [ ] Web: sign in / register via `@bytelyst/react-auth` + platform-service (commit: )
- [ ] iOS: sign in via `BLAuthClient` (commit: )
- [ ] Android: sign in via `BLAuthClient` Kotlin SDK (commit: )
- [ ] Verify JWT token flow: login → access token → sync API calls → token refresh (commit: )
### Phase E Exit Criteria
- [ ] Create timer on web → appears on iOS and Android after sync
- [ ] Create timer on iOS → appears on web and Android after sync
- [ ] Offline changes queue and flush when connectivity restored
- [ ] Auth flow works on all 3 platforms
- [ ] No data loss during sync (conflict resolution: server-wins)
- [ ] All existing tests still pass on all platforms

| `auth` | Auth flow integration (Phase E) |
---
## Risk Mitigation
| Risk | Mitigation |
|------|------------|
| MCP tools break existing timer API | New backend endpoints are additive; MCP tools proxy via centralized mcp-server — no coupling |
| Planner engine conflicts with manual timers | Plans are **proposed first**, user must approve before creating |
| Webhook dispatch overloads | Rate limit: max 100 webhooks/min per user, exponential backoff (already implemented in dispatcher) |
| Sync conflicts lose data | Server-wins strategy + conflict toast notification, full export always available |
| LLM context messages slow | LLM is optional enhancement — keyword rules remain primary with <1ms latency |
| Phase E scope creep | Auth flow is minimal: login/token/refresh only. No registration, password reset, OAuth in v1 |
| New features break existing | All 7 new features gated behind feature flags (default `false`). Can ship incrementally |
| Missing ecosystem packages | Phase 0 fills all gaps before new code — prevents cascading omissions |

## Audit Findings (Ecosystem Gap Review)
Systematic audit against `learning_ai_common_plat/packages/` (58 packages) revealed:
### Already Correct ✅
- Auth pipeline: `@bytelyst/auth-client` + `@bytelyst/react-auth` + `registerOptionalJwtContext` — fully wired
- Backend config: `@bytelyst/backend-config` + `backend-flags` + `backend-telemetry` — all used
- Web clients: `@bytelyst/feature-flag-client` + `telemetry-client` + `diagnostics-client` — all integrated
- Data layer: `@bytelyst/datastore` + `cosmos` + `field-encrypt` — all used in backend
- Sync: `@bytelyst/sync` + `api-client` — integrated in `platform-sync.ts`
- Design: `@bytelyst/design-tokens` (`--cm-*` CSS props) + `@bytelyst/ui` — both in web
- Product config: `PRODUCT_ID = 'chronomind'` properly sourced from `auth-api.ts`, not hardcoded in backend
### Gaps Fixed in This Roadmap ❌ → ✅
| Gap | Severity | Fixed In |
|-----|----------|----------|
| No `@bytelyst/kill-switch-client` | **Critical** | Phase 0.1 |
| No `@bytelyst/feedback-client` | Medium | Phase 0.2 |
| No `@bytelyst/accessibility` helpers | Medium | Phase 0.3 |
| No feature flags for new features | **Critical** | Phase 0.4 |
| No telemetry events for new features | Medium | Phase 0.5 |
| MCP tools built in product backend (wrong arch) | **Critical** | Phase A (dual-layer: backend REST + mcp-server proxy) |
| Webhook dispatcher never called (no event wiring) | High | Phase C.2 |
| No domain event persistence (`@bytelyst/event-store`) | Medium | Phase C.1 |
| No `@bytelyst/celebrations` for achievements | Low | Phase B.4, D.2 |
| No `@bytelyst/gentle-notifications` for warnings | Low | Phase D.4 |
| No `aria-label` requirements stated for new UI | Medium | All UI tasks now require it |
| No `@bytelyst/ui` usage requirement for new components | Medium | All UI tasks now require it |
| No `--cm-*` token requirement for new components | Medium | All UI tasks now require it |
### MCP Architecture Correction
**Wrong (original roadmap):** Build `backend/src/mcp/` with tool contracts + registration in product backend.
**Correct:** The centralized MCP server (`learning_ai_common_plat/services/mcp-server`, port 4007) already has `chronomind.*` tools (7 existing). New tools extend that server; product backend only provides REST endpoints.
Existing MCP tools in mcp-server: `chronomind.timers.create`, `.list`, `.delete`, `chronomind.routines.list`, `.validate`, `chronomind.syncStatus`, `chronomind.sharedTimers.share`, `chronomind.households.list`.
### Webhook Dispatcher Status Correction
**Wrong (original roadmap):** Called it a "skeleton" needing hardening.
**Correct:** `backend/src/modules/webhooks/dispatcher.ts` is **fully implemented** (201 LOC):
- HMAC-SHA256 signing with `t=,v1=` format
- Exponential backoff retries (100ms × 2^attempt, max 5s)
- Event log creation + delivery tracking
- Auto-increment failure count on subscription
- `verifySignature()` consumer helper with constant-time comparison
- 10s timeout per delivery attempt
The actual gap is that **no code path calls `dispatchEvent()`** — it's built but unwired.
---
## Notes
- **Backend migration (original item #5) is ALREADY DONE** — backend lives at `learning_ai_clock/backend/` (port 4011) with 5 modules + webhooks. No work needed.
- **Webhook dispatcher (original item #7) is FULLY BUILT** — HMAC, retries, event logging all done. Phase C wires lifecycle events into it and adds Zapier compat.
- **Platform-sync client (original item #9) is FULLY BUILT** — `web/src/lib/platform-sync.ts` has 547 LOC with full sync, DTOs, offline queue, `@bytelyst/sync` engine. Phase E wires it into the app lifecycle and verifies iOS/Android clients.
- **MCP server already has 8 ChronoMind tools** in `learning_ai_common_plat/services/mcp-server/src/modules/chronomind/`. New tools extend this, not the product backend.
- All new code must include `productId: "chronomind"` on every Cosmos document.
- All new UI must use `@bytelyst/ui` components, `--cm-*` CSS properties, and `aria-label` on every interactive element.
- All new backend routes must be gated behind feature flags (default `false`), use `req.log` (never `console.log`), and track telemetry events.
