Pilot Support Rollup

Shell examples run from the target project root. For scripts/forgeflow/ commands, use the helper path from your ForgeFlow checkout, or replace that prefix with "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/forgeflow/scripts/forgeflow/" for Codex and "$HOME/.claude/forgeflow/scripts/forgeflow/" for Claude Code. Run JavaScript helpers with node and shell helpers with bash. Replace <project> with the actual project folder name before running a placeholder example.

Use this after two or more maintainer pilots to find repeated support blockers. Keep raw pilot notes local and roll up only categories, counts, and sanitized observations.

Inputs

Use local notes from:

Do not copy raw .forgeflow/ artifacts, full settings files, source snippets, or private branch names into the rollup.

Generate a local rollup from pilot evidence notes:

scripts/forgeflow/rollup-pilot-evidence.js \
  --out ".forgeflow/$(basename "$PWD")/pilot-evidence-rollup.md"

For machine-readable output:

scripts/forgeflow/rollup-pilot-evidence.js --json

Category Rules

Use the first layer that could have prevented the problem:

Category Use When
install managed files are missing, corrupt, or not executable
health health output is wrong, unclear, or missing a real failure
settings hook or statusline wiring is confusing or stale
template-installer Codex or Claude template copy behavior is unclear
codex-discovery files exist but Codex does not show agents or skills after restart
agent-routing review mode or specialist selection is wrong for the branch
context-budget context packets are too large or savings are repeatedly low
review-quality findings lack evidence, severity is unclear, or false positives repeat
privacy summary or sharing level is unclear or too specific
docs the fix existed but the maintainer had to search for it

Repeated Blocker Rule

Create a product or docs fix when:

If none of those are true, run another pilot before changing product behavior.

Next Action Mapping

Dominant Category Next Action
install, template-installer improve installer output, manifest coverage, or clean-checkout verification
health, settings improve /forgeflow-health diagnostics or settings docs
codex-discovery improve Codex first-run verification and restart guidance
agent-routing, review-quality tune routing docs, reviewer prompts, or evidence standards
context-budget add examples, advisor guidance, or budget defaults based on evidence
privacy tighten sharing boundaries and public-summary inspection
docs move the missing step closer to the start path
