## Executive Summary

This document outlines the implementation of **ALL P0 UX consultant recommendations** for the Bodhisattva ecosystem feedback capture system. The focus is on user experience, smart prompting, privacy communication, and discoverable feedback mechanisms.

### Scope

**In Scope (This Implementation)**:
- Feedback capture UX (smart prompting, contextual questions)
- Privacy communication (visibility levels, first-run notice)
- Discoverable feedback tools (separate MCP tool)
- CLI feedback dashboard (history, delete, export)
- Update all MCP tools to return task_id

**Out of Scope (Other Agents)**:
- Learning database backend
- Pattern extraction algorithms
- Feedback aggregation and weighting
- Policy adjustment engine
- A/B testing framework

## Implementation Checklist

### 1. Separate Feedback MCP Tool (P0)
- [x] Create `mahavishnu/mcp/tools/feedback_tools.py`
- [x] Implement `submit_feedback()` tool
- [x] Add comprehensive docstrings with privacy information
- [x] Support satisfaction levels: excellent, good, fair, poor
- [x] Support issue types: wrong_model, too_slow, poor_quality, other
- [x] Support visibility levels: private, team, public
- [x] Return confirmation with impact message
- [ ] Register tool in MCP server

### 2. Smart Prompting Logic (P0)
- [x] Create `mahavishnu/learning/feedback/capture.py`
- [x] Implement `should_prompt_for_feedback()` with smart rules
- [x] Rules:
  - Task took > 2 minutes (significant effort)
  - Model tier was auto-selected (routing decision)
  - Task failed or had errors (learning opportunity)
  - Swarm coordination was used (complex orchestration)
- [x] Skip rules:
  - Tasks < 10 seconds (trivial)
  - User has rated 5 tasks in last hour (fatigue)
  - Non-interactive terminals (CI/CD)
- [ ] Add interactive prompt UI

### 3. Contextual Rating Questions (P0)
- [x] Implement contextual questions in `capture.py`
- [x] Questions:
  - Was the model choice appropriate? [Y/n]
  - Was the execution speed acceptable? [Y/n]
  - Did the output meet your expectations? [Y/n]
- [x] Map answers to satisfaction levels

### 4. Privacy Language (P0)
- [x] Replace "attributed/anonymous" with visibility levels
- [x] `--visibility private` (default): Only you, stored locally
- [x] `--visibility team`: Your team, for learning
- [x] `--visibility public`: Global patterns, anonymized
- [x] Update all help text and prompts

### 5. First-Run Privacy Notice (P0)
- [x] Create `mahavishnu/learning/feedback/privacy.py`
- [x] Implement `display_first_run_notice()`
- [x] Store notice viewed flag in config
- [x] Clear, user-friendly language
- [x] Explain what's stored and how it's used
- [x] Show opt-out option

### 6. CLI Feedback Dashboard (P0)
- [x] Create `mahavishnu/cli_commands/feedback_cli.py`
- [x] Add `mahavishnu feedback --history` command
- [x] Add `mahavishnu feedback --delete <task_id>` command
- [x] Add `mahavishnu feedback --export <file>` command
- [x] Add `mahavishnu feedback --clear-all` command
- [x] Integrate into main CLI

### 7. Update MCP Tools (P0)
- [x] Update `pool_tools.py` to return task_id
- [x] Add feedback hint to results: `"Provide feedback: mahavishnu feedback --task-id {task_id}"`
- [ ] Update other MCP tools (code_index, coordination, otel, etc.)

### 8. Unit Tests (P0)
- [x] Test feedback capture logic
- [x] Test smart prompting rules
- [x] Test privacy notice display
- [x] Test CLI feedback commands
- [x] Test MCP feedback tool
- [ ] Target: 100% coverage for new code
