Life in Days Phase 1 — source baseline

• Status: frozen planning input
• Baseline date: 2026-08-14
• Owner: Life in Days Product Council

Purpose

This record identifies the exact artifacts used to create the Phase 1 release plan. It prevents a later prototype or document revision from silently changing the scope of an already-reviewed release.

Authoritative planning inputs

Artifact	Role in the council review	SHA-256
Global product requirements	Canonical LID-* behavior, acceptance, privacy, recovery, and deferred-scope contracts	9f8ad449a8e3c8f5387a8deb32b1b51b5d8bd0252fd1e1647137e9b981d0aa35
UX specification	Canonical interaction, responsive, accessibility, state, content, and validation contracts	1076228160f253cf8d291c8c5884dfecb7bf8883e82b208f181776cf94c68b8e
v5 prototype entry point	Frozen UX intent for the council review; not implementation or production evidence	ced79f43c0e3b8916f029898a6469a8290aa90e9e45c28be7b612c177d4ca17d
v5 prototype behavior	Interaction/state fixture behind the v5 prototype	3e99414a1c3f6cd71047dee6964a26fb502250e1b0061f153f935c397714383d
v5 prototype presentation	Visual and responsive fixture behind the v5 prototype	64858881f2189d0e919da66e8d17687e17e06dcb8c2e5a4325f65420195b6cd1

The user-supplied product-requirements checkout also contained a later uncommitted wording variant with SHA-256 513a5bc62cdccc0112d8876f6b75915782ce9a4c118f9a8207b1ef588f8edf5c. Its functional LID-* requirements match this public-safe baseline. Phase 1 artifacts use the public-safe wording and do not copy legacy internal-template text.

Interpretation rules

1. The global PRD defines product behavior. Release PRDs may narrow a milestone but may not weaken a P0 acceptance contract.
2. The UX specification defines experience behavior. The v5 prototype illustrates intent and may reveal gaps; it does not prove that a feature is built, tested, accessible, secure, or deployable.
3. Existing architecture and tracker documents are planning evidence. A task becomes Done only when its named acceptance evidence exists.
4. Proposed dates are planning ranges, not commitments. A failed entry gate moves dependent work; it does not compress privacy, recovery, or quality gates.
5. Real photos and photo-derived data remain outside every AI request path.
6. The release plan is for one private user, fixed Asia/Kolkata Journal Dates, prospective capture, and the approved no-sharing/no-coaching MVP boundary.

Change control

Any change to a source hash, requirement ID, release boundary, or milestone date must update:

• the affected release PRD;
• the council decision record;
• the detailed release backlog and workbook;
• the GitHub issue and Project fields; and
• requirement/design traceability validation.
