Next Phase Preview

Phase 6: Full Migration & Legacy Cleanup (Future)

Not Yet Scheduled:

  • Monitor v1.0-beta.1 for issues (2 weeks minimum)
  • Address any discovered problems
  • Remove legacy scripts (v2.0.0)
  • Remove deprecation warnings
  • Final validation and testing
  • Tag release v2.0.0

Current Phase 5 Prepares For:

  • Clear migration path for users
  • Documented deprecation timeline
  • Comprehensive troubleshooting resources
  • Support for dual-mode operation

Lessons Learned

  1. Documentation is Key: Clear, multi-layered documentation makes adoption easier
  2. Non-Breaking Changes: Keeping legacy scripts working reduces friction
  3. Multiple Entry Points: Different users prefer different documentation styles
  4. Cross-References Matter: Consistent linking improves discoverability
  5. Deprecation Warnings Work: Visible but non-blocking warnings guide users effectively

Known Limitations

  1. 7 Skills Without Legacy Scripts: Can't add deprecation warnings to non-existent scripts (expected)
  2. Version Timeline: v2.0.0 removal date not yet set (intentional flexibility)
  3. AI Discovery Testing: GitHub Copilot integration not yet tested in production (awaiting release)
