Master entry-point doc (Seller-Management.md) consolidating everything
built across the prior 4 commits (ADR-011, domain models, Phase 1 UI,
UX review) plus the full roadmap, with every section explicitly
tagged Implemented / Planned / Future so nothing reads as built that
isn't.
Covers: Overview, Architecture & Hierarchy, Marketplace, Seller,
Roles & Permissions, Feature Flags, Bootstrap, Future API, Seller
Storefronts, Seller Branding, Seller Ownership, Checkout Modes,
Unified/Split Orders, Migration & Compatibility (why existing
marketplaces stay unchanged, with the concrete verification evidence
for each claim), Developer Notes, Builder Notes, Backend Notes.
Explicitly marked Future (not designed, no shape decided) rather than
documented as if real: the API surface, seller storefronts, checkout
modes, and the unified-vs-split-order decision - none of these have
any code or ADR behind them yet, unlike the typed models/feature flag/
Phase 1 UI which are genuinely Implemented.
Added a rollout-stage diagram (types+flag -> Phase 1 UI -> backend
decisions -> CRUD -> branding/storefronts -> checkout modes) showing
work stops after "Phase 1 UI" today. Linked as the entry point from
docs/architecture/foundation/README.md and docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md,
ahead of ADR-011/diagrams/domain-models/UX-review which stay as
detail references.
No code changed.
Pointer-only updates, no rewrite: added ADR-011 to both docs' existing
ADR lists/counts, plus a one-line Seller Management entry in
PROJECT_INDEX.md's capability summary noting it's typed-foundation-
only, disabled by default, not implemented.
Audited every *.md in docs/ and root. Merged five overlapping backend
docs (BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md + AUTHENTICATION.md + ERROR_CONTRACT.md +
MAINTENANCE_MODE.md + the already-archived BACKEND_API.md/
BACKEND_API_REMAINING_WORK.md) into one canonical docs/BACKEND.md
(4775 lines, 10 numbered sections) - deleted the four standalone
files outright now that their content is fully inlined.
Archived (not deleted - real historical value): ADMIN.md (Sprint
19-28 build log, sprint-report-shaped, not a living reference) and
FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md (despite its name, a shipped-history changelog
with detail no other doc has - not a forward roadmap, so keeping it
in root alongside NEXT_PHASE.md was exactly the "10 roadmaps"
confusion being cleaned up).
Deleted outright (zero value): SPRINTS.md - a leftover copy-pasted
sprint-kickoff prompt saved as a file, not documentation.
Rewrote docs/PROJECT_STATUS.md with completion-percentage estimates
per area (frontend/backend/UI/admin/storefront) and an explicit
first-customer-readiness call. Rewrote docs/NEXT_PHASE.md to the
strict 5-phase structure (backend integration -> production testing
-> performance -> monitoring -> v2 ideas), pointing to PRODUCT_BACKLOG
.md/FUTURE_FEATURES.md for phase 5 detail instead of duplicating it.
Rewrote root README.md - was stale (referenced deleted pages/info,
pages/legal folders from a prior RC pass), now covers architecture,
frontend/backend status, how to run, mock<->API switch mechanism
(useMockData in environment.ts), current folder structure, and a
documentation map.
Updated docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md (the stated entry point) to link only
the surviving doc set - every remaining document is reachable from it.
Fixed every broken/stale cross-reference to the deleted/renamed
backend docs across ARCHITECTURE.md, EDITOR.md, FRONTEND.md,
PROJECT-STRUCTURE.md, StaticPages.md, KNOWN-ISSUES.md (10 individual
link fixes, verified by repo-wide grep before and after). Left
CHANGELOG.md's two historical entries untouched - changelogs are
append-only history, not live navigation, editing past entries would
misrepresent what was true at the time.
Not touched (explicitly out of scope): docs/architecture/foundation/**
(enforced ADRs/governance, permanent not sprint-shaped),
docs/context/** (Barry Cache infrastructure, "do not edit by hand"
per CLAUDE.md), .claude/worktrees/** (separate git worktrees
containing an unrelated project's docs, not this repo's documentation).
docs/ root: 22 files -> 16. Plus 5 in docs/archive/ (was 3).
Classified every TODO.md item into one of DONE/BACKEND/PRODUCT
DECISION/FUTURE VERSION/BUG, verified against source, not against
prior docs:
- BACKEND items (bootstrap content, builder draft/publish, 6 admin
CRUD domains, media pipeline) confirmed already covered by
BACKEND_INTEGRATION.md; appended a mapping appendix rather than
duplicating raw bullets. Fixed 22 stale internal BACKEND_API.md
cross-references left over from before that file was archived.
- PRODUCT DECISION items (dark mode, brand-color WCAG contrast,
stars.component token gap, footer Contacts content, advanced
analytics, payment providers) moved to new docs/PRODUCT_BACKLOG.md.
- FUTURE VERSION items (Angular 22, bundle splitting, cart-modal
composition cleanup, hero-spacing investigation) moved to new
docs/FUTURE_FEATURES.md.
- BUG: rewrote docs/KNOWN-ISSUES.md down to the one real, verified,
currently-reproducible frontend bug (Ed25519 admin-auth error codes
session-expired/invalid-signature are unreachable -
toAuthErrorShape() never reads a body error code, only maps HTTP
status, and no status ever produces those two codes - confirmed by
reading auth.service.ts + auth-error.model.ts). Condensed the
"Fixed" history instead of carrying full verbose repro text forward.
- DONE items removed outright (dead-code deletion, dashboard false
positive, RC-02 fixes, stale "dynamic-renderer unwired"/"178 missing
keys" claims already disproven by source).
docs/TODO.md rewritten to the exact "no blockers" template - nothing
left qualifies as a release blocker.
New docs/PROJECT_STATUS.md: honest per-area status (frontend/backend/
docs/auth/builder/storefront/admin), known limitations, and explicit
production/backend/demo readiness calls - including correcting an
initial draft's unpushed-commit count (53, not 10, per git log
origin/B2B..HEAD).
New docs/NEXT_PHASE.md: work that can only start once a real backend
exists (gateway swap-in, mock removal, dormant-auth activation, role
enforcement, integration/E2E tests, perf profiling, monitoring,
maintenance-mode UI).
docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md (the stated entry point) updated to link the new
doc set and stop pointing at the now-archived BACKEND_API.md/AUTH.md.
docs/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md's "Known open items" replaced with pointers
to the new category-split docs instead of a duplicated mixed list.
Not swept: a handful of low-traffic docs (architecture ADRs,
FRONTEND.md, EDITOR.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, PROJECT-STRUCTURE.md,
StaticPages.md, ADMIN.md) still reference the old BACKEND_API.md/
AUTH.md filenames - noted as a known gap in PROJECT_STATUS.md rather
than touched blindly, since they're historical-context docs, not the
navigation entry point.
pages/category, pages/search, pages/item-detail, pages/info/**,
pages/legal/** (40+ files) were entirely unrouted dead code:
- category/:id, category/:id/items, search all redirect/route to
CatalogContainerComponent
- product/:id routes to ProductDetailsContainerComponent, not item-detail
- cmsContentRoutes (meant to route info/legal) is a literal empty array;
static/legal content is served by the CMS-driven :staticPath ->
StaticPageComponent route instead
dynamic-renderer/ is unrelated and stays - confirmed active, it's the
live homepage rendering pipeline (HomeComponent -> WebsiteRuntimeFacade
-> PageRendererService/PageResolverService -> DynamicPageLayoutComponent).
Updated docs/TODO.md, docs/KNOWN-ISSUES.md, docs/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md,
docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md to reflect the resolution.
- docs/TODO.md: checklist of every open item from KNOWN-ISSUES.md/
FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md/BACKEND_API_REMAINING_WORK.md/ANGULAR22_PLAN.md,
re-verified against current repo state (git ahead count, package.json,
app.routes.ts) rather than copied blind. Backend items kept but
marked skipped per user request (doing together separately).
- Deleted docs/archive/ (19 files) now that every open finding was
confirmed already merged into KNOWN-ISSUES.md/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md.
Full original text recoverable via git history
(git log --diff-filter=D -- docs/archive).
- Fixed the resulting dangling docs/archive/* references in
PROJECT_INDEX.md/KNOWN-ISSUES.md/FRONTEND-ROADMAP.md.
Verification: tsc --noEmit clean, npm run build green, 0 broken
markdown links across 49 files (checked programmatically). No
application code touched.

Step 1-2 (audit + plan): classified 35 project markdown files into
Core/Architecture/ADR/Temporary-audit/Sprint-report/Generated-review/
Duplicate/Obsolete/Historical. Agent-tooling files (.agents/skills/**,
.superpowers/**, docs/context/**, CLAUDE.md/GEMINI.md/AGENTS.md/
.github/copilot-instructions.md) explicitly out of scope — intentional
per-tool duplication, not documentation debt.
Step 3 (merge, no information lost):
- docs/PROJECT.md -> docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md, rewritten as the single
entry point: system overview, living-doc index, archive pointer,
current status, and a critical-finding callout up top.
- docs/backend/BACKEND-INTEGRATION.md -> docs/BACKEND_API.md,
docs/backend/REMAINING-BACKEND-WORK.md ->
docs/BACKEND_API_REMAINING_WORK.md (also folded in a legitimate
uncommitted status update that had been sitting unstaged all
session: categories marked DONE, order-creation endpoint noted done).
- RELEASE-NOTES.md merged into CHANGELOG.md (was a near-duplicate of
the same release content in friendlier prose), then deleted.
- KNOWN-ISSUES.md: added item 13 (see below) and item 14 (missing
canDeactivate on admin/products edit, from the archived PROJECT-STATE
audit, re-verified still true); added a correction note to Fixed
item 7.
- All cross-references to renamed/moved files fixed across every
kept doc (grep+sed pass, then verified with a link-existence check
across all 58 in-scope markdown files -> 0 broken links).
Step 4 (archive, nothing deleted without merging first): created
docs/archive/, moved 19 files there (3 root sprint reports, 1 platform
report, SPRINT-PLAN.md, and 14 one-off audit/review/report docs).
Added correction headers to the 3 archived docs whose conclusions were
affected by the finding below, rather than silently leaving them
misleading.
Step 5: docs/PROJECT_INDEX.md rewritten per the mission brief -
someone opening the repo should understand the whole system from it.
IMPORTANT FINDING (surfaced during this audit, not the mission's
primary goal but too significant to bury): pages/category/*,
pages/search/*, pages/item-detail/*, pages/info/**, pages/legal/**
(40+ files) are entirely unrouted dead code - app.routes.ts's
cmsContentRoutes is a literal empty array, and category/search/product
routes redirect to CatalogContainerComponent/
ProductDetailsContainerComponent, not these files. Confirmed against
app.routes.ts directly and cross-checked against FRONTEND.md's own
routing description. This means several fixes from earlier this cycle
(RC-Premium-01, RC STORE-01) and the dead-code cleanup sprint's
conclusion that these files were live were all wrong - documented as
KNOWN-ISSUES.md item 13, flagged at the top of PROJECT_INDEX.md, and
noted on the 3 archived docs whose conclusions it affects. No
application code was changed to fix this (out of scope per this
session's 'documentation only' constraint) - it needs a wire-it-up-or-
delete-it decision first.
Verification: tsc --noEmit clean, npm run build green, all markdown
links across 58 in-scope files resolve (checked programmatically).
No application/Angular/backend code modified.
