Progress Visualization Guide

Purpose

This document explains the format rules and visualization elements for .autopilot/progress.md. For the actual template file, see templates/progress.md.template.

File Structure

The progress.md file contains these sections:

  1. Header - Requirement info and timestamps
  2. Progress Overview - Visual progress bar and status summary
  3. Loop History - Detailed log of each execution loop
  4. Risk Log - Active risks and mitigations
  5. Completion Summary - Final summary when all tasks done

Progress Bar Format

Overall Progress: [████████░░] 80% (4/5 tasks complete)
                  ↑ completed   ↑ remaining

Rules:

  • Use for completed portion
  • Use for remaining portion
  • Bar width: 10 characters total
  • Show percentage and count: (X/Y tasks complete)

Examples:

[░░░░░░░░░░] 0% (0/5 tasks complete)
[███░░░░░░░░] 30% (1.5/5 tasks complete)
[██████████] 100% (5/5 tasks complete)

Status Icons

Icon Meaning State Value
Done done
🔄 In Progress doing
Todo todo
🚫 Blocked blocked
⏭️ Skipped skipped

Status Summary Table

Status Summary:
| Status | Count | Tasks |
|--------|-------|-------|
| ✅ Done | 4 | TASK-001, TASK-002, TASK-004, TASK-005 |
| 🔄 In Progress | 1 | TASK-003 |
| ⏳ Todo | 0 | - |
| 🚫 Blocked | 0 | - |

Rules:

  • List actual task IDs for completed/in-progress tasks
  • Use - for empty categories
  • Update after each loop

Dependency Graph Format

Use ASCII art for simple dependency visualization:

Linear Chain:

TASK-001 (✅) ──► TASK-002 (✅) ──► TASK-003 (🔄)

Branching:

TASK-001 (✅) ──► TASK-002 (✅)
     │
     ├──────────────► TASK-003 (✅)
     │
     └──────────────► TASK-004 (⏳)

Converging:

TASK-001 (✅) ──┐
TASK-002 (✅) ──┼──► TASK-003 (🔄)
TASK-003 (✅) ──┘

Legend:

  ──► : depends on
  (✅) : Done
  (🔄) : In Progress
  (⏳) : Todo
  (🚫) : Blocked

Loop Entry Format

Each loop entry should contain:

### Loop #[N] - TASK-[XXX]: [Task title]

**Time**: [ISO timestamp]
**State**: [✅ Completed | 🔄 In Progress | 🚫 Blocked]
**Commit**: [hash if completed]
**Retry Count**: [N if retrying]

**Plan**:
- Selected task: TASK-[XXX]
- Expected files: [list]
- Expected checks: [list]
- Expected browser validation: [description]

**Execution**:
- [What was done]

**Check Results**:
- [Check name]: [result]

**Review Results**:
- [What was validated]

**Files Changed**:
- [file path] (new/modified/deleted)

**Notes**:
- [Any important notes or discoveries]

Auto-Update Rules

After each loop:

  1. Update progress bar percentage
  2. Update status summary table
  3. Refresh dependency graph with current states
  4. Add new loop entry

When task completes:

  • Move task from 🔄 to ✅ in status summary
  • Update dependency graph

When task starts:

  • Move task from ⏳ to 🔄 in status summary
  • Update dependency graph

When blocked:

  • Add to 🚫 count in status summary
  • Add entry to Risk Log

On completion:

  • Fill in Completion Summary section
  • Generate final statistics

Risk Log Format

## Risk Log

| Date | Task | Risk | Mitigation | Status |
|------|------|------|------------|--------|
| 2025-02-15 | TASK-001 | JWT secret management | Use env variables | ✅ Resolved |
| 2025-02-15 | TASK-003 | Email service reliability | Add retry logic | 🔄 In Progress |

Status Values:

  • 🔄 In Progress - Being actively worked on
  • ✅ Resolved - No longer a risk
  • 🚫 Blocked - Unresolved blocker
