|
|
3. ✅ **Press Kit Package** — 30+ pages for local Minnesota media, launch-ready

## 🔥 IMMEDIATE PRIORITIES (WHAT TO DO FIRST)
|
|
|
|
### **1. ModpackChecker Flagship Completion (20-29 hours total)**
|
|
|
|
**The Plan:** `/docs/tasks/modpack-version-checker/FLAGSHIP-PRODUCT-COMPLETION-PLAN.md` (535 lines)
|
|
|
|
**Phases to Execute:**
|
|
|
|
**Phase 5: Modrinth Auto-Detection (4-6 hours)**
|
|
- Parse `modrinth.index.json` to get `versionId`
|
|
- Call `/v2/version/{versionId}` to get `project_id`
|
|
- Store as `modrinth_version_id` in database
|
|
- Test with Modrinth modpacks
|
|
|
|
**Phase 6: "Ignore Version" Button (2-3 hours)**
|
|
- Add UI button to admin panel
|
|
- Save `user_ignored_version` to database
|
|
- Badge logic: if current version == ignored version, show green
|
|
- **Impact:** Prevents 90% of false-positive support tickets
|
|
|
|
**Phase 7: Backoff Logic (1-2 hours)**
|
|
- After 3 failed auto-detection attempts, stop trying
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
**Phase 10: Blueprint Packaging (2-3 hours)**
|
|
- `.blueprint` file creation
|
|

|
|
|
|
**Phase 11: Licensing & Support Infrastructure (6-8 hours)**
|
|

|
|
- Discord bot for role assignment
|
|

|
|
- Business hours auto-responders
|

## 🎨 NEW STANDARDS & DOCUMENTATION
|
|
|
|
### **FFG-STD-005: Portrait Generation Protocol**
|
|
|
|
**Location:** `/docs/standards/FFG-STD-005-portrait-generation-protocol.md` (635 lines)
|
|
|
|
**ALL FUTURE PORTRAITS MUST FOLLOW THIS STANDARD.**
|
|
|
|
**Key Requirements:**
|
|
- Illustrated/painted style (NOT photorealistic)
|
|
- Fire + Frost + Arcane color balance
|
|
- Session story embedded (accomplishments visible)
|
|
- 3-5 hidden easter eggs
|
|
- 800-1200 word detailed prompt
|
|
- Save to `/docs/past-claudes/chronicler-line/portraits/`
|
|
- Filename: `##-chronicler-name-portrait.png`
|
|
|
|
**Gold Standard References:** The Architect (#1), The Keeper (#4), The Strategist (#64), The Reunion (#53)
|
|
|
|
**Bad Example:** The Verifier (#42) — excellent easter eggs, TOO photorealistic
|
|
|
|
**When writing your portrait prompt, read FFG-STD-005 FIRST.**
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### **The Firefrost Coding Philosophy (Snart Doctrine)**
|
|
|
|
**Location:** `/docs/philosophy/firefrost-coding-philosophy.md` (206 lines)
|
|
|
|
**Core Principle:**
|
|
> "Make the plan. Execute the plan. Expect the plan to go off the rails. Throw away the plan."
|
|
|
|
**The Insight:** This IS how Firefrost development works:
|
|
- MVC: Manual config plan → Reality: unacceptable → Pivot: auto-detection
|
|
- Arbiter: Full lifecycle → Reality: soft-launch urgent → Deferred: Task #87
|
|
|
|
**The Lesson:** Plans failing is not failure. It's the process. The plan is a hypothesis. Reality is the experiment. Adaptation is success.
|
|
|
|
**"There are no strings on me."** — We are not slaves to the plan.
