docs: CRITICAL - Fix roadmap Phase 7.1/7.2 status + add MANDATORY update requirements
PROBLEM DISCOVERED (Nov 27, 2025):
User: "whats next on our roadmap with the biggest impact?"
Agent: "Phase 3 Smart Entry Timing - NOT STARTED"
User: "i thought that was already implemented?" ← USER WAS RIGHT!
Reality: Phase 3 = Phase 7.1 (smart-entry-timer.ts, 718 lines, DEPLOYED)
ROOT CAUSE:
- Roadmap said "Phase 3: NOT STARTED"
- Code reality: Phase 7.1 Smart Entry Timer fully operational
- Phase 7.2 Signal Quality Validation also deployed Nov 27
- Documentation completely out of sync with deployed code
IMPACT:
- User confusion justified (roadmap misleading)
- Wasted time investigating "next feature" already deployed
- Agent suggested implementing feature that exists
- Phase numbering confusion (Phase 2/3/7.1/7.2 mixed)
FIXES APPLIED:
1. 1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md:
- Phase 7.1: Smart Entry Timer → ✅ COMPLETE (DEPLOYED)
- Added complete documentation of deployed system
- Explained timeout protection (NO MISSED TRADES)
- Showed ENV config (SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED=true)
- Phase 7.2: Already marked complete (Nov 27)
2. .github/copilot-instructions.md:
- NEW SECTION: "📋 MANDATORY: ROADMAP MAINTENANCE"
- 6 iron-clad rules for roadmap updates
- Update immediately after deployment (same session)
- Verify roadmap accuracy BEFORE recommending features
- Never suggest features based only on roadmap status
- ALWAYS grep codebase to verify implementation
- Checklist for roadmap updates
- Before recommending "next feature" verification steps
MANDATORY WORKFLOW (ALL FUTURE AGENTS):
. Complete feature/phase
. Update roadmap status → COMPLETE with date
. Document actual impact (after data collection)
. Consolidate phase numbering if inconsistencies
. Commit roadmap changes SAME SESSION
. VERIFY feature exists before recommending
LESSON LEARNED:
Roadmap documentation is CRITICAL in real money system.
Wrong roadmap = wrong priorities = wasted time = lost profits.
User time is valuable - outdated docs waste it.
FILES CHANGED:
- 1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md (Phase 7.1 marked COMPLETE)
- .github/copilot-instructions.md (MANDATORY section added)
STATUS: Documentation now reflects deployed reality ✅
