# Future Features - Job Forge
|
|
|
|
## 📋 Feature Management Process
|
|
|
|
This folder captures feature ideas that emerge during development and testing. **No new features are implemented until the current planned scope is complete.**
|
|
|
|
## 🔄 Process
|
|
|
|
### 1. **Current Development Phase**
|
|
- Focus on planned features in `docs/jobforge_mvp_architecture.md`
|
|
- Complete all documented functionality first
|
|
- Test thoroughly before considering additions
|
|
|
|
### 2. **Feature Idea Capture**
|
|
- Any new ideas go into `ideas/` folder immediately
|
|
- Use the provided template for consistency
|
|
- No implementation discussion until current scope is complete
|
|
|
|
### 3. **Feature Review Process**
|
|
When current scope is complete:
|
|
- Review all captured ideas in `ideas/`
|
|
- Analyze impact, complexity, and value
|
|
- Move approved ideas to `approved/` with detailed planning
|
|
- Archive or reject ideas that don't fit the vision
|
|
|
|
### 4. **Implementation Planning**
|
|
For approved features:
|
|
- Full technical specification
|
|
- Update architecture documentation
|
|
- Plan integration with existing features
|
|
- Estimate development effort
|
|
|
|

|
## 🚨 Important Rules
|
|
|
|
1. **No scope creep** - stick to current plan first
|
|
2. **Capture everything** - don't lose good ideas, but don't implement them yet
|
|
3. **Proper analysis** - every idea needs careful evaluation before approval
|
|
4. **Documentation first** - approved features must be fully documented before implementation
|
|
|
|
This ensures we complete what we planned while preserving innovation and improvements for future iterations. |
