- **Results**: Multiple critical errors and missing functionality
- **Usage**: Reference for debugging specific implementation issues

### Additional Tracking Files
- **[gaps-master.md](gaps-master.md)** - Central gap registry and tracking
- **[implementation-status.md](implementation-status.md)** - Current implementation dashboard

## 🎯 Gap Categories

### **Critical Implementation Gaps** (P0)
Blocking features and errors that prevent core functionality

### **Performance Issues** (P1)
Import times, execution overhead, scalability concerns

### **UX Friction Points** (P1-P2)
Developer experience pain points and complexity barriers

### **Feature Opportunities** (P2)
Seamless development enhancements and workflow improvements

### **Enterprise Integration Gaps** (P2-P3)
Missing enterprise feature connections and compliance requirements

### **Architecture Gaps** (P3)
Design limitations and structural improvements

## 🏷️ Gap Tracking Information

Each tracked gap includes:

- **Gap ID**: Unique identifier (GAP-XXX-category-name)
- **Priority Level**: P0 (Critical), P1 (High), P2 (Medium), P3 (Low)
- **Category**: Implementation, Performance, UX, Enterprise, Architecture
- **Status**: Open, In Progress, Resolved, Deferred, Blocked
- **Impact Assessment**: Business and technical impact analysis
- **Effort Estimate**: Time required to resolve (hours/days)
- **Dependencies**: Other gaps or features required first
- **Related Todos**: Linked todo items for action tracking
- **Implementation Notes**: Technical details and approach
- **Testing Requirements**: How to validate resolution
- **Resolution Date**: When resolved (for completed gaps)

## 🔄 Integration with Procedural Directives

### **Todo System Integration**
- Each critical gap (P0-P1) has corresponding todos in `/todos/active/`
- Gap status updates automatically trigger todo updates
- Todo completion triggers gap status verification

### **Progress Tracking**
- Regular status updates maintain current implementation state
- Dependency tracking ensures proper resolution order
- Impact assessment guides prioritization decisions

### **Review Process**
- Weekly gap review sessions prioritize and reprioritize items
- Monthly comprehensive gap analysis validates resolution quality
- Quarterly strategic review assesses overall gap landscape

## 🚀 Usage Instructions

### **Adding New Gaps**
1. Add entry to `gaps-master.md` with complete gap information
2. Create corresponding todo in `/todos/active/` for P0-P1 gaps
3. Update `implementation-status.md` with new status information

### **Updating Gap Status**
1. Modify status in `gaps-master.md`
2. Update corresponding todo status
3. Add resolution notes if gap is resolved
4. Archive to `resolution-log.md` when appropriate

### **Gap Resolution Workflow**
1. **Identify** → Add to gaps-master.md
2. **Assess** → Determine priority, impact, effort
3. **Plan** → Create todos, identify dependencies
4. **Implement** → Execute resolution with testing
5. **Validate** → Verify resolution meets criteria
6. **Archive** → Move to resolution-log.md with details

## 📊 Status Dashboard

Current gap tracking metrics available in `implementation-status.md`:

- Total gaps by category and priority
- Resolution progress and velocity
- Blocking dependencies and bottlenecks
- Implementation timeline projections

## 🎯 Success Metrics

### **Gap Resolution Velocity**
- P0 gaps: Resolved within 1 week
- P1 gaps: Resolved within 2 weeks
- P2 gaps: Resolved within 1 month
- P3 gaps: Resolved within 1 quarter

### **Quality Metrics**
- No gap reopening after resolution
- 100% test coverage for gap resolutions
- All dependencies properly tracked and resolved

### **Process Metrics**
- All gaps have corresponding documentation
- Regular review schedule maintained
- Stakeholder visibility into gap status

**Next Actions**:
1. Review `gaps-master.md` for comprehensive gap registry
2. Check `implementation-status.md` for current development status
3. Consult `resolution-log.md` for historical context and patterns

This tracking system ensures no gap is overlooked and provides clear direction for development priorities while integrating seamlessly with our existing procedural directives.
