Purpose
This plan schedules the seven phases (gateways) that deliver the flash card program inside the delivery window of one week that the Business Case sets as a constraint (2026-10-14 to 2026-10-21). Each phase is one milestone and is delivered by one pull request, so the Product Owner (S01) can follow the work step by step.
Planning Assumptions
- Week 1 starts 2026-10-14; the plan ends by 2026-10-21, per the Business Case constraint.
- One phase takes one day; the last phase (documentation and publication) has three days because the wiki exists in three languages and the screenshots need the finished program.
- The baseline documents (Business Case, Stakeholder Analysis, Project Plan, use case documents, ADRs) are accepted before MIL-001 starts, in a pull request of their own.
- Phases 2 to 5 follow the four steps of the course assignment in order; phase 6 is the Product Owner's extra.
- S01 is owner and approving reviewer of every phase; in autonomous mode the AI acts as stand-in and the review records say so.

A No-Go on a phase moves every later date by the days the rework takes; the buffer is the 2026-10-20 working day, which has no phase of its own.
Plan Risks
| Risk |
Impact |
Mitigation |
| No display on the machine that runs the review, so the e2e tests skip |
Window behaviour is checked by the view model tests only |
The review record states whether the e2e tests ran; the screenshots in MIL-007 prove the window on a machine with a display |
| The git host's CI is not available |
The publish workflows cannot run |
Milestones are published with sync-project.sh and the wiki by SSH push (MIL-007) |
| The speech extra cannot be installed on the build machine |
MIL-006 cannot be demonstrated end to end |
The adapter is tested with fakes; the manual check is recorded as not done |
Open Issues
- No Governance document (GOV): see ADR-0003. S01 is the only approver.
- The git host's
sync-milestones workflow is not installed; whether to install it is S01's decision.
