Maturity Assessment​

CapabilityLevelEvidenceCategory
Domain Content5 — Optimised1,200+ pages structured on 5P pattern. The site IS a filled grid at portfolio scale.Core
Email Delivery5 — OptimisedResend production-ready. Used for notification triggers.Supporting
Figma Template4 — ManagedVisual design complete. Grid layout, cell structure, mode switching all designed.Supporting
Stackmates Auth4 — ManagedProduction auth exists. Needs wiring once Identity resolved.Supporting
CDD Prototype3 — Defined5 interaction patterns explored (Mission Control, Stack, Morning Pages, Compass, Conversation). None persistent.Core
Convex DB3 — DefinedReal-time data layer exists. Not wired to Prompt Deck. Used elsewhere.Supporting
Grid UI3 — DefinedMission Control pattern prototyped. 25 clickable cells render. Not persistent.Core
Cell Editor0 — Not BuiltNothing exists. Click-to-edit with rich text or markdown.Core
Convex Persistence0 — Not BuiltNothing exists. Grid state must survive sessions and devices.Core
Mode Toggle0 — Not BuiltPep Talk / Pitch switch. Different prompts, same content.Core
Card View0 — Not BuiltOne-at-a-time mobile view. Swipe navigation.Core
Scale Selector0 — Not BuiltPersonal / Venture / Industry / Portfolio zoom levels.Core
Empty Cell Highlighting0 — Not BuiltVisual emphasis on gaps. The "gaps are the strategy" mechanism.Core
Snapshot System0 — Not BuiltSave dated versions, compare side-by-side over time.Core
Template Engine0 — Not BuiltPre-filled grids for common domains. 3 starters planned.Supporting
Share / Export0 — Not BuiltPublic read-only link. Pitch without slides.Supporting

Gap Analysis​

PriorityCapabilityWhy CriticalInvestment
P1Cell EditorWithout this, no content entry. The grid is decoration without editable cells.Build (3d in Sprint 0)
P1Convex PersistenceWithout this, grid dies on session end. The #1 bottleneck (infinite update wait) stays.Build (2d in Sprint 0)
P2Mode ToggleWithout this, no Pep Talk / Pitch distinction. Same grid for inner and outer loses power.Build (2d in Sprint 0)
P2Card ViewWithout this, no mobile. Desktop-only limits daily check-in use case.Build (2d in Sprint 1)
P2Scale SelectorWithout this, locked to one scope. The instrument can't zoom.Build (1d in Sprint 1)
P2Empty Cell HighlightingWithout this, gaps aren't visible. The core insight ("gaps are strategy") dies.Build (1d in Sprint 1)
P2Snapshot SystemWithout this, no evolution tracking. The compound loop ("return, compare") breaks.Build (2d in Sprint 2)
P3Template EngineWithout this, users start from blank. Starter templates lower first-fill friction.Build (2d in Sprint 2)
P3Share / ExportWithout this, can't pitch with the grid. But core value is personal use first.Build (1d in Sprint 2)
P3AI CoachingV3. Deferred until instrument proves value without AI.Future

Investment Strategy​

CategoryCountStrategy
Core (differentiates)10Build internally. 3 at maturity 3, 7 at 0 — these are the sprint. The prototype proves the interaction; the sprint makes it persist.
Supporting (enables core)7Make efficient. 4 at maturity 3-5 (wire, don't build), 3 at 0 (defer to Sprint 2 or V3).
Generic (commodity)0Nothing to buy. Platform already built.

The 60/40 split: 7 of 17 capabilities exist at maturity 3+. The existing pieces (prototype, auth, DB, content) provide the foundation. The sprint is persistence + production UI, not invention. ~60% of the work is wiring existing pieces, ~40% is new interaction code.

Dependency cross-check: Both P1 gaps (Cell Editor, Convex Persistence) depend on Identity & Access resolution. Local storage fallback exists for Sprint 0, but the HARD dependency from the Dependency Map blocks production persistence. Engineering can build Grid Engine from prototype immediately.

Gate​

Before moving to Agent & Instrument Diagram:

  • All capabilities assessed with evidence-based maturity — YES (17 capabilities, all with evidence)
  • Capabilities categorised (Core / Supporting / Generic) — YES (10 Core, 7 Supporting, 0 Generic)
  • Gaps identified and prioritised (P1 / P2 / P3) — YES (2 P1, 5 P2, 3 P3)
  • Investment strategy matches category — YES (build core, make supporting efficient, defer P3)
  • Action plan has owners — YES (all mapped to sprint tasks)
  • Critical gaps have escalation paths — YES (Identity & Access is the blocker)
