This manifest governs the specification collection for the FStarVisualHarness system. The base spec (blazor-harness.spec.md) defines the system skeleton: components, topology, phases, traces, constraints, data entities, and page declarations. All other specs are incremental additions that reference the base.

Lifecycle States

Every spec document moves through a defined sequence of states. Each transition is recorded in the Tracking block with a date.

State Meaning Tracked by
Draft Written, not yet reviewed for correctness Created date
Reviewed Passed consistency check and grammar audit Reviewed date
Approved Ready to execute; decisions resolved, dependencies satisfied Approved date
Executed Amendments applied to base spec, or code implemented Executed date
Verified Post-execution confirmation passed Verified date

Rules: - States are sequential: Draft, Reviewed, Approved, Executed, Verified. - A spec cannot skip states. - Decision specs enter Approved when the recommendation is accepted. - Feature and bug specs enter Executed when their code implementation is complete. - Amendment specs enter Executed when their corrections are applied to the base spec. - The base spec enters Executed when it has been used to generate or validate source code. - Verified requires an independent check (test pass, audit, or review) confirming the execution is correct.

Tracking Block Convention

Every spec document must contain a Tracking block immediately after the title and header metadata, before the first content section.

Format:

Field Value
Created YYYY-MM-DD (file creation date)
State Current lifecycle state
Reviewed YYYY-MM-DD or blank
Approved YYYY-MM-DD or blank
Executed YYYY-MM-DD or blank
Verified YYYY-MM-DD or blank
Dependencies Spec filenames with parenthetical notes, or “None”

Rules: - Created uses the file’s creation date. - State reflects the current lifecycle state. - Date fields are set when the corresponding state transition occurs. - Dependencies lists other spec filenames that must reach Executed state before this spec can be executed. - “None” if the spec has no prerequisites beyond the base spec.

Type Purpose Template
Base system spec System skeleton: components, topology, phases, traces, constraints, data, pages blazor-harness.spec.md
Feature spec New capability: component additions, entities, constraints, tests, example feature-theory-tabs.spec.md
Bug spec Source gap the spec identifies: current vs. specified behavior, acceptance criteria bug-timeline-crosshair-sync.spec.md
Decision spec Conflict between spec and source: options, trade-offs, recommendation, resolution decision-folder-structure.spec.md
Amendment Base spec correction without new capability: count fixes, dependency notes amendment-test-counts.spec.md
Manifest Root document binding a spec collection: inventory, lifecycle, conventions, execution order blazor-harness.manifest.md

Execution Order

Specs are grouped into tiers by dependency. All specs in a tier can be executed in parallel. A tier cannot begin until all dependencies from prior tiers have reached Executed state.

Tier 0: Decisions and Amendment (Executed)

These resolve conflicts and correct the base spec. No code changes; spec-only amendments.

  1. decision-folder-structure.spec.md
  2. decision-flow-diagram.spec.md
  3. decision-timeseries-animator.spec.md
  4. amendment-test-counts.spec.md

Tier 1: Standalone Components (Reviewed, ready for Approved)

New components and entities that depend only on the base spec.

  1. feature-radar-chart.spec.md (RadarChart component, RadarAxis entity)
  2. feature-crosshair-markers.spec.md (ChartMarker entity, LineChart markers/tooltips, HeatMap crosshair)
  3. feature-theory-tabs.spec.md (KatexBlock, KaTeX library, ChartCard TheoryContent, KatexTest page)

Tier 2: Dependent Features (Reviewed, blocked on Tier 1)

Require Tier 1 components to exist.

  1. feature-floating-slider.spec.md (FloatingSliderPanel, provides PresetContent host)
  2. feature-heatmap-expansion.spec.md (HeatMap trace expansion, BarSegment/BarStack; depends on crosshair-markers)

Tier 3: Cross-Cutting Features (Reviewed, blocked on Tier 2)

Require Tier 2 infrastructure.

  1. feature-scenario-presets.spec.md (preset buttons in FloatingSliderPanel.PresetContent)
  2. feature-timeseries-player.spec.md (TimeSeriesPlayerPage; depends on decision, floating-slider, theory-tabs)

Tier 4: Bug Fix (Reviewed, blocked on Tier 1)

Extends LineChart with synchronized crosshair; requires crosshair vocabulary from Tier 1.

  1. bug-timeline-crosshair-sync.spec.md (CrosshairTime/OnTimeHover on LineChart for TimelineDashboard)
