# x0x Project: Current Status and Blocker

**Date**: 2026-02-06  
**Status**: AWAITING ARCHITECTURAL DECISION  
**Phase**: 2.1 - napi-rs Node.js Bindings  

---

## What Has Been Completed

### Phase 2.1 Progress
- ✓ Task 1: Initialize napi-rs Project Structure
- ✓ Task 2: Agent Identity Bindings
- ✓ Task 3: Agent Creation and Builder Bindings
- ✓ Task 4: Network Operations Bindings
- ✓ Task 5: Event System Integration
- ⚠ Task 6: TaskList Bindings (INCOMPLETE - needs fixes)
- ⚠ Task 7: TaskList Operations (BLOCKED)
- ⏸ Task 8-12: Not started (waiting on decision)

**Completion**: 5/12 tasks complete (42%)

---

## Current Issue: Architectural Blocker

### Problem Statement
Phase 2.1 Tasks 6-7 depend on:
- Phase 1.3 (Gossip Overlay Integration) - NOT STARTED
- Phase 1.4 (CRDT Task Lists) - NOT STARTED

Without these dependencies, Task 6 cannot be completed properly.

**Additional Issue**: Task 6 review revealed gaps requiring rework:
- Missing createTaskList() and joinTaskList() bindings
- #[allow(dead_code)] suppressions violate quality standards
- Zero test coverage

---

## Available Options

### Option A: Skip to Task 8 ⭐ RECOMMENDED
**What**: Skip Tasks 6-7 for now, proceed with Tasks 8-12  
**Why**: Tasks 8-12 are independent and ready to start  
**How**: 
1. Continue with Task 8 (WASM Fallback)
2. Complete Tasks 9-12 while waiting
3. Return to Tasks 6-7 once Phase 1.3-1.4 are done

**Pros**:
- Unblocks progress
- Maintains momentum
- Follows GSD practices
- Allows parallel work

**Cons**:
- Non-sequential task progression
- Adds dependency management complexity

**Estimated Work**: 8-12 hours (Tasks 8-12) + 4-6 hours (Task 6-7 rework)

---

### Option B: Implement Stubs
**What**: Create mock implementations of Task 6 features  
**Why**: Allows sequential task progression  
**How**:
1. Implement Agent::createTaskList() that returns NotImplementedError
2. Implement Agent::joinTaskList() that returns NotImplementedError
3. Replace with real implementation later

**Pros**:
- Sequential progression
- Allows Task 6-7 to be marked complete

**Cons**:
- Creates test code pollution
- Requires replacement later
- Doesn't actually solve the problem

**Estimated Work**: 2-3 hours now + 4-6 hours later (rework)

---

### Option C: Pause Phase 2.1
**What**: Stop all work, wait for Phase 1.3-1.4  
**Why**: Clean dependency ordering  
**How**:
1. Pause Phase 2.1
2. Wait for Phase 1.3-1.4 completion notification
3. Resume from Task 6

**Pros**:
- Clean dependency resolution
- No out-of-order work

**Cons**:
- Extends timeline significantly
- Blocks entire phase
- Reduces momentum

**Estimated Impact**: +1-2 weeks delay

---

## RECOMMENDATION: Option A

**Rationale**:
1. GSD methodology emphasizes forward momentum
2. Task 8 (WASM Fallback) is genuinely unblocked
3. Working on Tasks 8-12 builds value while waiting
4. Easier to resume Task 6 after understanding full scope
5. Phase 2.1 completion still requires all 12 tasks

**Action Plan**:
1. Confirm Option A decision
2. Move to Task 8 implementation
3. Complete unblocked Tasks 8-12
4. Monitor Phase 1.3-1.4 progress
5. Return to Task 6-7 for final polish and merge

---

## What Needs to Happen Next

### Before proceeding with any work:
1. **HUMAN DECISION REQUIRED**: Confirm Option A (or choose different option)
2. Once confirmed, I will:
   - Begin Task 8 implementation
   - Create comprehensive test suite
   - Run full review cycle
   - Continue through Tasks 8-12

### For Task 6-7 Rework (later):
1. After Phase 1.3-1.4 complete:
   - Implement Agent::createTaskList()
   - Implement Agent::joinTaskList()
   - Add comprehensive test suite
   - Remove #[allow(dead_code)] suppressions
   - Document breaking API changes
   - Run full review cycle before merge

## Summary

✓ External review complete (Grade C+)  
✓ Issues documented and prioritized  
✓ Architectural blocker identified  
✓ Options analyzed with pros/cons  
✓ Recommendation provided  
✗ **AWAITING HUMAN CONFIRMATION**

## Next Step

**Please confirm**: Proceed with Option A (skip to Task 8)?

Once confirmed, work will resume immediately with Task 8 implementation.
