tegwick b9c1b90867 docs: update CHANGELOG for v0.9.0 plugin infrastructure release
Major version 0.9.0 release documenting the complete plugin infrastructure
implementation that enables JavaScript-first development.

**Added:**
- Plugin Infrastructure Foundation with RenderingEnginePlugin system
- TestDrive JSUI Plugin for independent JavaScript UI development
- CLI Engine Parameter (--engine) with intelligent defaults
- Automatic Asset Deployment to _markitect/plugins/ structure
- Complete JavaScript-Python separation with JSON configuration

**Changed:**
- BREAKING: Edit mode now defaults to testdrive-jsui plugin
- Asset management now automatic (no --ship-assets flag needed)
- JavaScript architecture fully modularized with clean separation

**Fixed:**
- JavaScript const redeclaration and loading conflicts resolved
- Plugin asset deployment and accessibility issues fixed

**Migration Guide:**
- Existing users automatically get new testdrive-jsui for edit mode
- Legacy behavior available with --engine standard
- Assets deploy automatically to output directories

This represents the largest architectural enhancement to date, enabling
independent JavaScript development while maintaining clean integration
with the Python markdown processing pipeline.

This directory contains historical documentation for the MarkiTect project, including completed gameplans and diary entries that document major milestones and development patterns.

Contents

GAMEPLAN Files

Strategic planning documents for major development phases:

  • DATA_ACCESS_IMPROVEMENTS_GAMEPLAN.md - Database access pattern improvements
  • DIRECTORY_STRUCTURE_OPTIMIZATION_GAMEPLAN.md - Repository organization enhancement
  • DOMAIN_LOGIC_SEPARATION_GAMEPLAN.md - Architectural layer separation
  • GAMEPLAN.md - General project planning
  • GITEA_INTEGRATION_CONSOLIDATION_GAMEPLAN.md - Issue tracking integration
  • ISSUE_59_GAMEPLAN.md - Issue management CLI tool development
  • MAIN_BRANCH_OPTIMIZATION_GAMEPLAN.md - Branch workflow optimization
  • TESTING_ARCHITECTURE_ENHANCEMENT_GAMEPLAN.md - Test infrastructure improvement

Diary Entries

Development milestone documentation:

  • 2025-09-27_data-access-pattern-improvements.md - Database access pattern work
  • 2025-09-27_domain-logic-separation-completion.md - Architecture completion
  • 2025-09-27_logging-standardization-complete.md - Logging system standardization
  • 2025-09-28_gitea-auto-detection-implementation.md - Gitea integration completion

Purpose

This historical documentation serves multiple purposes:

  1. Nostalgic Reference: Preserve completed work for reflection
  2. Pattern Analysis: Review development patterns to identify inefficiencies
  3. Knowledge Base: Understand decision-making processes and architectural evolution
  4. Project Memory: Maintain institutional knowledge of major milestones

Organization

Files are organized by type and chronologically when applicable. GAMEPLAN files represent strategic planning phases, while diary entries document actual achievements and milestones.

Reference Files (2025-11-12)

CRITICAL STABLE STATE CAPTURE

Due to a refactoring session that became overly complex and violated GUARDRAILS.md principles, we captured reference files from the last stable commit before the failed attempt:

Commit: dbde13e - "feat: enhance control system with improved UI and debug functionality" Date: 2025-11-11 00:29:34 +0100

Files:

  • GUARDRAILS-edit-mode-dbde13e-2025-11-11-00-29-34.html - Edit mode output
  • GUARDRAILS-static-dbde13e-2025-11-11-00-29-34.html - Static mode output

What This Represents:

This is the reference point for what "working edit mode" should look like. Any future attempts to restore or fix edit mode functionality should be tested against these reference files.

Key Characteristics:

  • Edit mode message: "✓ Rendered with interactive editing capabilities"
  • Should contain working UI controls
  • Should display content properly
  • Should have functional section editing

Critical Lesson:

Always commit stable functionality before attempting refactoring! This mistake of not having a clear stable baseline made recovery unnecessarily difficult.


Organized as part of Issue #47: GAMEPLAN and DIARY files consolidation Created: October 1, 2025 Updated: November 12, 2025 - Added critical stable state references
