Delivery order
Scaffold the smallest runnable application and document its commands.
done whenThe project starts from a documented command in a clean checkout.
Implement the primary data model and core workflow.
done whenThe main object can be created, read and changed end to end.
Add validation, safe failure states, and persistence.
done whenBad input is refused with a readable message and nothing is left corrupted.
Cover the critical path with automated tests.
done whenThe highest-risk behavior fails the suite when it breaks.
Exercise a clean install from the README and fix every missing step.
done whenA fresh clone reaches the first successful workflow using only the README.
That is the whole plan for IdeaFast. What it deliberately does not cover is below · check the gaps before you call it a replacement.
- community discovery, you can only scan subreddits you already thought of
- cross-scan dedupe, so repeat runs resurface the same pains as if they were new
- a warmed corpus, every fresh scan pays the full ingestion wait
- cost control, naive LLM classification of a busy subreddit gets expensive fast
- the idea generation and validation layer on top of the raw clusters
