Mission Manifest — Mosaic Mission Control Plane

Persistent document tracking scope, status, and handoff history for the combined PRD / mission / Kanban workflow.

Mission

ID: mission-control-plane-20260506

Statement: Combine Mosaic PRDy, coord, and Kanban into one durable workflow so an agent can move from feature idea to PRD to mission to task board and keep working across session rotation, compaction, and restarts with minimal context loss.

Phase: planning — MC-01 complete, MC-02 next

Current Milestone: MC-02

Progress: 1 / 6 milestones

Status: active

Last Updated: 2026-05-06

Parent Mission: None — new mission


Context

This mission exists because overnight autonomy breaks when the working session short-cycles. The system needs durable artifacts and a mechanical coordinator that can:

  1. keep a canonical PRD,
  2. atomize the PRD into board tasks,
  3. track mission state separately from the chat session,
  4. detect churn or compaction pressure,
  5. rotate to a fresh session, and
  6. re-enter from a structured handoff.

Operational convention: repo worktrees and long-lived working directories should use /src/<repo>-worktrees instead of /tmp.

Design references:

  • docs/mission-control/PRD.md — product requirements
  • docs/mission-control/BOARD.md — feature discussion board
  • docs/mission-control/TASKS.md — atomized execution plan

Success Criteria

  • AC-1: A feature idea can be converted into a PRD, mission, and task board.
  • AC-2: The coordinator can load a mission and its board from durable storage.
  • AC-3: The coordinator can detect short-cycling and rotate sessions automatically.
  • AC-4: A rotated session can resume from a handoff packet without manual re-prompting.
  • AC-5: The board remains traceable back to the PRD user stories.
  • AC-6: Operators can inspect mission state, task state, and latest handoff from one place.
  • AC-7: The system can run overnight without losing the mission goal.

S1 2026-05-06 hermes PRD, board, task plan, mission manifest, and worktree convention drafted

Next Step

Kick off MC-02: implement the durable mission runtime model and wire the mission state into the coordinator.
