Make the project's documentation match the code and remove the sprawl. The docs
claimed Phase 2.8 (drug interactions) was 'planning/0%' and the backend '~91%
complete' — both wrong: 2.8 is implemented and live, plus the P0/P1 security
and test work is done. Five root CI/CD docs described a 'docker-build' CI job
that was removed; ~18 backend/ status snapshots and ~24 docs/implementation
duplicates cluttered the tree.
Deletions (85 files):
- Root: 4 stale CI/CD reports (CI-CD-{COMPLETION-REPORT,IMPLEMENTATION-SUMMARY,
STATUS-REPORT,FINAL-STATUS}.md) — all describe the removed docker-build job.
- backend/: 18 phase/build/fix snapshots and code-dump .txt files.
- docs/: the 3 one-time reorg reports; ~17 docs/implementation duplicates and
process artifacts; 4 stale docs/development CI docs + git snapshots;
redundant deployment/testing files.
- thoughts/: STATUS.md (said Phase 2.4 in-progress), superseded phase notes and
duplicative research inputs. tmp/ (928KB of CI debug logs, gitignored).
Moves (18 files):
- 9 genuine decision records -> docs/adr/ (Architecture Decision Records),
date-prefixes stripped, with an index README.
- 8 historical-but-valuable phase plans/specs + the old CI-CD-FINAL-SOLUTION ->
docs/archive/ (now-populated, with a README explaining it's superseded
material). thoughts/ tree removed.
Rewrites (13 files) to match reality:
- Drop the fake '% complete' figures everywhere in favor of Implemented /
In-Progress / Planned with concrete endpoint/feature lists.
- Phase 2.8 -> Implemented; add /api/interactions/* and /api/auth/{refresh,
logout} to the endpoint lists; fix 'Rust 1.93' -> edition 2021.
- Add a Security section (token_version validation, hashed refresh-token
persistence, fail-fast config, real-IP audit) and correct the test-coverage
and deployment claims to reality.
- New canonical docs/development/CI-CD.md (4 jobs: format/clippy/build/test,
mongo service, no docker-build + why).
- README, docs/README, product/{STATUS,ROADMAP,PROGRESS,README,introduction},
implementation/README, development/README, testing/README, AI_AGENT_GUIDE,
.cursorrules, .gooserules all updated.
Verified: greps for 'Phase 2.8 (Planning)', 'PLANNING (0%)', 'Rust 1.93',
'91%/10%/85% complete', and 'docker-build' return nothing outside docs/archive;
all internal doc links resolve; backend/src untouched (cargo build clean).

State Management Decision Summary
Date: 2026-02-14 Decision: Redux Toolkit 2.x
Scorecard
| Criterion | Redux Toolkit | Zustand | Jotai | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Code Sharing | 10 | 10 | 10 | Critical |
| Bundle Size | 7 | 10 | 10 | Critical |
| TypeScript | 10 | 10 | 10 | Critical |
| Complex State | 10 | 7 | 5 | Critical |
| Offline Sync | 10 | 7 | 5 | Critical |
| Weighted Score | 9.2 | 8.6 | 7.6 | - |
Decision: Redux Toolkit 2.x
Score: 9.2/10
Key Advantages
-
Best for Complex State
- Family structure, multi-person profiles, permissions
- Built-in normalization (createEntityAdapter)
- Predictable state updates
- Time-travel debugging
-
Best for Offline Sync
- RTK Query for server state management
- Optimistic updates
- Background sync support
- Battle-tested offline patterns
-
Best Ecosystem
- Largest ecosystem
- Most resources, tutorials, examples
- Most production deployments
- Easiest to hire developers
-
Best Developer Experience
- Time-travel debugging
- Predictable state updates
- Easy to debug
Trade-offs
- More boilerplate: More code, but clearer structure
- Steeper learning curve: More concepts, but better patterns
- Larger bundle: 60KB vs 3KB (negligible impact on 50-100MB app)
Technology Stack
Shared (Monorepo)
- State Management: Redux Toolkit 2.x
- Data Fetching: RTK Query 2.x
- Async Thunks: createAsyncThunk
- Persistence: Redux Persist 6.x
- Selectors: Reselect 5.x
- DevTools: Redux DevTools
Alternative Considered: Zustand
Score: 8.6/10
Why Redux Toolkit wins:
- Better for complex state (family structure)
- Better for offline sync (RTK Query)
- Larger ecosystem (more resources)
When to use Zustand instead:
- If team has no Redux experience
- If state is simpler (no family structure)
- If development speed is more important
Next Steps
- Implement Redux Toolkit POC
- Create family structure state slice
- Implement RTK Query for server state
- Test offline synchronization
- Test encrypted data caching
- Make final decision
Implementation Timeline
- Setup Redux Toolkit: 1 day
- Create state slices: 2-3 days
- Implement RTK Query: 2-3 days
- Implement offline sync: 3-5 days
- Test encrypted caching: 2-3 days
- Evaluate DX: 1-2 days
Total: 11-17 days (2-3 weeks)
