Project State

The single live “where are we right now” file. Read this FIRST at the start of any session that touches this repo - don't infer phase or sprint from conversation history. Updated LAST by whichever agent completes the current step, as documented in AGENTS.md under “Automated State-Driven Handoff.”

Phase: 4 - Sprint review Leading agent: product-owner Process file: process/04_sprint_review.md

Sprint: 1 Sprint dates: 2026-09-08 - 2026-09-11 Sprint goal: Prove a thin text-only desktop-to-CLI rendering spine so an operator can select files, launch a job, watch progress, and receive a PDF generated through Debenu from a known XML template. Current sprint backlog: backlog/sprints/sprint-1.md

Next action: All 5 committed Sprint 1 items are Done (exit criteria for Phase 3 met — see backlog/sprints/sprint-1.md). The walking skeleton is real end-to-end: an operator picks template/CSV/output paths in the WinForms desktop app (EnvelopeRenderer.Desktop), launches a render without freezing the UI, watches live progress parsed from the CLI's PROGRESS <kind> ... stdout stream, and gets a completion summary — verified with a real success run (392/392 pages, valid PDF) and a real forced-failure run against the actual sample CSV. 106 tests passing. product-owner runs Sprint Review next per process/04_sprint_review.md. Carry-forward items to raise at review: template-path and UNC-timeout impediments still open (logs/impediment_log.md); the 100k-record/300 DPI benchmark hasn't been re-run since Batch 2; no “warning” concept exists in the product yet, so the “warning count” acceptance task for the last story was satisfied by its documented absence rather than a real counter — product owner may want to scope that once image/overflow handling exists.

History

Date	Phase completed	Notes
2026-09-04	0 - Project onboarding	Seeded project config, Definition of Done, initial epic backlog, and open questions from Envelope_Report_Generator_Requirements.md.
2026-09-04	1 - Backlog refinement	Refined the top epics into sprint-ready stories, confirmed C#/.NET 10 as the application stack, and reordered the backlog for the first text-only MVP slice.
2026-09-04	2 - Sprint planning	Created Sprint 1 around a conservative desktop-to-CLI text-only rendering spine and recorded the committed backlog in backlog/sprints/sprint-1.md.
2026-09-08	3 - Sprint execution (in progress)	Held Daily Scrum #1 and turned the sprint backlog into a dependency-ordered execution plan (5 batches) in backlog/sprints/sprint-1.md. Still in phase 3 — not a phase transition, just the day's checkpoint.
2026-09-08	3 - Sprint execution	All 5 batches Done: CLI render contract, real Debenu text-only rendering, stdout progress events, WinForms desktop launch shell (user-confirmed as the UI framework), and live progress/completion display. 106 tests passing end-to-end. Sprint goal met with real verified runs against the 392-row sample CSV.
