ENG-R1-001 — task design specification

  • Task ID: ENG-R1-001
  • Artifact kind: design
  • Artifact state: draft
  • Roadmap status: Backlog
  • Milestone: R1
  • Execution allowed: false
  • Evidence boundary: Creation of this draft does not approve implementation, deployment, testing, restore, release, or production use.

Design inputs

Experience objective

Specify every human-facing, operator-facing, status, error, privacy, recovery, and accessibility consequence of Manual Upload & Reflection Core without treating shared specifications or prototypes as task approval.

Required state family

  • normal and success;
  • empty and never-run;
  • loading and long-running;
  • validation and dependency error;
  • interruption, timeout, retry, and stale result;
  • denied, expired, blocked, unavailable, and not-configured prerequisite;
  • destructive, spend-bearing, migration, recovery, and rollback states where applicable;
  • wide, compact, 320 px, 200% text, 400% page zoom, landscape, light/dark theme, and reduced-motion behavior; and
  • keyboard order, focus entry/return, semantic names, live-region behavior, non-color cues, target size, contrast, and screen-reader reading order.

Task traceability

  • Outcome: Implement durable explicit-date text upload, duplicate override, Calendar, and authentic Journal Day display.
  • Requirement IDs: LID-SCP-002, LID-SCP-003, LID-UP-001, LID-UP-002, LID-UP-003, LID-REF-001, LID-REF-004, LID-REF-005, LID-REF-006, LID-OPS-011, LID-OPS-018
  • Parent design sources: docs/council/UX-DESIGN-REVIEW.md, docs/design/UX-SPECIFICATION.md, prototypes/calendar-ui/index-v5.html
  • Prototype boundary: frozen prototypes are interaction inputs only; they do not prove runtime auth, persistence, privacy, recovery, accessibility conformance, or production behavior.

Design verification scenarios

  1. ENG-R1-001-D-001 — Complete states: the applicable state family above is specified with exact content and permitted actions.
  2. ENG-R1-001-D-002 — Responsive/accessibility: the task remains understandable and operable across the named responsive, keyboard, focus, screen-reader, contrast, zoom, theme, and motion conditions.
  3. ENG-R1-001-D-003 — Truth/privacy: copy never claims success before durable evidence, never confuses backup with restore, and never exposes authentic/private data in review artifacts.

Open design decisions

  • Exact task-specific journeys, layouts, components, content, and state applicability require Designer review.
  • Architecture-dependent timing, evidence sources, recovery, failure, and maintenance facts remain provisional until the technical plan is approved.
  • Any not-applicable decision requires a concrete rationale and explicit Designer/council concurrence; this draft does not assert it.

UI/UX Designer disposition

Draft / Hold. Shared UX and prototype sources are inputs. Substantive implementation cannot start until the task-specific design contract is approved or validly marked not applicable.
