### Uncovered Lines Deep Dive

#### 1. `conflict_detector.py` (3 lines uncovered)

**Lines 125-126**: Circular dependency fallback
```python
# Just add them in original order
ordered.extend(sorted(remaining))
break
```
**Impact**: LOW - Edge case (circular dependencies)
**Test Gap**: No test for circular dependency detection
**Priority**: LOW (circular dependencies prevented by DAG validation in TaskManager)

**Line 192**: Risk score when avg_total == 0
```python
if avg_total == 0:
    risk_score = 0.0  # Line 192 uncovered
```
**Impact**: LOW - Both tasks have no files (edge case)
**Test Gap**: Missing test for empty file lists on both tasks
**Priority**: LOW (already tested empty files on single task)

#### 2. `cli/conflicts.py` (12 lines uncovered)

**Lines 126-128**: Generic Exception handler
```python
except Exception as e:
    click.echo(click.style(f"Unexpected error: {e}", fg="red"))
    raise click.Abort()
```
**Impact**: LOW - Generic error handler
**Test Gap**: Not testing unexpected exceptions
**Priority**: LOW (NotFoundError covered, generic exceptions hard to test)

**Similar patterns in**:
- Lines 207-208 (order command)
- Lines 223-225 (order command)
- Lines 320, 333-335 (check command)

**Common Issue**: Generic exception handlers not tested

#### 3. `cli/main.py` (20 lines uncovered)

**Lines 198-200, 219-221, 264-266**: Generic exception handlers in KB commands
**Lines 323-325, 441-443**: Generic exception handlers in task commands
**Lines 277, 291, 332, 351, 483**: Individual error handling lines

**Impact**: LOW - Error handling paths
**Test Gap**: Generic exception handlers not systematically tested
**Priority**: LOW (specific errors covered, generic fallbacks hard to trigger)

#### 4. `core/search.py` (8 lines uncovered)

**Lines 12-13**: Import error handling for scikit-learn
```python
except ImportError:
    TFIDF_AVAILABLE = False
```
**Impact**: MEDIUM - Fallback when scikit-learn unavailable
**Test Gap**: Not testing without scikit-learn
**Priority**: MEDIUM (feature documented as having fallback)

**Lines 110, 116-118, 132-134**: TF-IDF specific branches
**Impact**: LOW - Specific TF-IDF code paths
**Priority**: LOW (TF-IDF tested in general)

#### 5. `utils/yaml_utils.py` (9 lines uncovered)

**Lines 55-56, 89-93, 111-115**: YAML parsing error handlers
```python
except yaml.YAMLError as e:
    raise ValidationError(f"Invalid YAML: {e}")
```
**Impact**: LOW - YAML validation errors
**Test Gap**: Not testing malformed YAML
**Priority**: LOW (normal YAML operations covered)

### ⚠️ Gaps in Test Perspectives

#### 1. Error Path Coverage (MEDIUM Priority)

**Gap**: Generic exception handlers not systematically tested

**Missing Scenarios**:
- Unexpected exceptions in CLI commands
- YAML parsing errors (malformed files)
- File system errors (permissions, disk full)
- Import errors (missing dependencies)

**Recommendation**: Add negative test suite
```python
def test_conflict_detect_handles_yaml_error():
    """Test graceful handling of YAML parsing errors."""

def test_conflict_detect_handles_permission_error():
    """Test handling of file permission errors."""

def test_search_fallback_without_sklearn():
    """Test that search works without scikit-learn."""
```

**Time Estimate**: 2 hours
**Impact**: Better error resilience

#### 2. Circular Dependency Detection (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: No test for circular dependency fallback in conflict ordering

**Missing Scenario**:
```python
# Tasks with circular dependencies through file conflicts
# (Note: Already prevented by DAG validation, so this is defensive)
TASK-001 conflicts with TASK-002
TASK-002 conflicts with TASK-003
TASK-003 conflicts with TASK-001
```

**Recommendation**: Add circular conflict test
```python
def test_recommend_safe_order_circular_conflicts():
    """Test that circular file conflicts are handled gracefully."""
```

**Time Estimate**: 1 hour
**Impact**: Edge case coverage

#### 3. Boundary Value Testing (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: Extreme values not fully tested

**Missing Scenarios**:
- 0 files in both conflicting tasks
- 100+ files in a single task
- 1000+ character file paths
- Empty string file paths

**Recommendation**: Add boundary value tests
```python
def test_conflict_detector_both_tasks_empty_files():
    """Test conflict detection when both tasks have no files."""

def test_conflict_detector_very_long_file_paths():
    """Test handling of extremely long file paths."""
```

**Time Estimate**: 1 hour
**Impact**: Robustness

#### 4. Concurrent Access Testing (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: No tests for concurrent operations

**Missing Scenarios**:
- Multiple CLI commands running simultaneously
- Race conditions in file access
- Concurrent MCP tool calls

**Recommendation**: Consider adding concurrency tests
```python
def test_concurrent_conflict_detection():
    """Test multiple conflict detections in parallel."""
```

**Time Estimate**: 3 hours
**Impact**: Production robustness
**Note**: Single-user tool, concurrency unlikely

#### 5. Platform-Specific Testing (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: Not explicitly testing Windows-specific scenarios

**Missing Scenarios**:
- Windows path separators (\ vs /)
- Case-insensitive file systems (Windows, macOS)
- Line endings (CRLF vs LF)

**Recommendation**: Add platform tests
```python
@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform != "win32", reason="Windows only")
def test_conflict_detector_windows_paths():
    """Test conflict detection with Windows-style paths."""
```

**Time Estimate**: 2 hours
**Impact**: Cross-platform reliability
**Note**: Already using pathlib which handles this

### ⚠️ Documentation Gaps

#### 1. Migration Guide (MEDIUM Priority)

**Gap**: No guide for upgrading from v0.8.0 → v0.9.0-beta

**Missing Content**:
- Breaking changes (if any)
- New features adoption guide
- Configuration changes
- Recommended workflow updates

**Recommendation**: Add migration section to RELEASE_NOTES
```markdown
## Upgrading from v0.8.0

### Breaking Changes
None. v0.9.0-beta is fully backward compatible.

### New Features to Adopt
1. Run `clauxton conflict detect` before starting tasks
2. Use `clauxton conflict order` for sprint planning
3. Check files with `clauxton conflict check` before editing

### Recommended Workflow Updates
Before (v0.8.0):
  clauxton task next
  # Start working

After (v0.9.0-beta):
  clauxton task next
  clauxton conflict detect TASK-XXX  # NEW: Check conflicts first
  # Start working if no conflicts
```

**Time Estimate**: 1 hour
**Impact**: Better user adoption

#### 2. Architecture Decision Records (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: No ADR for why file-level (not line-level) detection

**Missing Content**:
- Why file-level conflict detection (not line-level)?
- Why O(n²) algorithm (not index-based)?
- Why 40%/70% risk thresholds?

**Recommendation**: Add `docs/architecture/adr-conflict-detection.md`
```markdown
# ADR-001: File-Level Conflict Detection

## Status
Accepted

## Context
Need to detect conflicts before they occur...

## Decision
Use file-level detection (not line-level) because:
1. Phase 2 scope limitation
2. Simpler implementation
3. Faster performance
4. Sufficient for most use cases

## Consequences
- Positive: Fast, simple, works offline
- Negative: May show false positives (same file, different lines)
- Mitigation: Line-level detection planned for Phase 3
```

**Time Estimate**: 2 hours
**Impact**: Better understanding of design decisions

#### 3. Performance Tuning Guide (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: Limited guidance on optimizing performance for large codebases

**Missing Content**:
- When to be concerned about performance
- How to optimize for 100+ tasks
- How to optimize for 1000+ files per task
- Caching strategies

**Recommendation**: Add performance section to conflict-detection.md
```markdown
## Performance Optimization

### When to Optimize
- 50+ concurrent tasks: Consider task archiving
- 100+ files per task: Consider file filtering
- Slow detection (>5s): Check task/file counts

### Optimization Strategies
1. Archive completed tasks
2. Use specific file patterns (not wildcards)
3. Split large tasks into smaller tasks
4. Use --verbose only when needed

### Benchmarks
| Scenario | Expected Time |
|----------|---------------|
| 10 tasks, 10 files each | <500ms |
| 50 tasks, 20 files each | <2s |
| 100 tasks, 50 files each | <10s |
```

**Time Estimate**: 1 hour
**Impact**: Better performance for power users

#### 4. Examples Repository (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: No separate examples/tutorials repository

**Missing Content**:
- Sample project with conflicts
- Step-by-step tutorial with actual repo
- Video walkthrough

**Recommendation**: Create `examples/` directory
```
examples/
├── basic-conflict/
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── task-001.yaml
│   ├── task-002.yaml
│   └── demo.sh
├── sprint-planning/
└── file-coordination/
```

**Time Estimate**: 3 hours
**Impact**: Better onboarding for new users

#### 5. API Reference Website (LOW Priority)

**Gap**: No dedicated API documentation website (like Sphinx docs)

**Missing Content**:
- Searchable API reference
- Cross-referenced documentation
- Version-specific docs

**Recommendation**: Generate with Sphinx
```bash
pip install sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme
sphinx-quickstart docs/
# Add autodoc configuration
make html
```

**Time Estimate**: 4 hours
**Impact**: Professional documentation presentation
