# WALKA Development Status

Last updated: 2026-08-10

## Current state

**Flutter visual freeze 1.0.0: COMPLETED**  
**Laravel API foundation 1.1.0: COMPLETED**  
**Flutter ↔ Laravel catalog integration 1.2.0: COMPLETED**  
**Database-backed catalog persistence 1.3.0: COMPLETED**  
**Authenticated catalog administration 1.4.0: COMPLETED**  
**OPS-001 stable-main + verified APK delivery: COMPLETED**  
**DESIGN-001 premium product-led Home: COMPLETED**  
**DESIGN-002 premium app shell/navigation: COMPLETED**  
**DESIGN-003 premium Categories + Search discovery: COMPLETED**  
**Premium UI/UX program: DESIGN-004 NEXT (P0)**

WALKA has a released Flutter storefront connected to a versioned Laravel 13 API with resilient mobile caching/fallback, a database-backed Product/Variant catalog, and a protected backend-only catalog authoring surface with optimistic revisions and immutable audit records. The premium mobile program has completed Home, shared shell/navigation, and product-led Categories/Search discovery. Public commerce still redirects to official Amazon product listings.

The owner-facing stable source is `main`. Implementation remains on dedicated task branches until the required CI gates are green. OPS-001 is released: each successful current-`main` Flutter run can publish `Last verified APK/WALKA-latest.apk` plus `Last verified APK/VERIFIED_BUILD.md`; stale or failed runs cannot replace the last verified build.

The current product priority is the P0 premium UI/UX program in `docs/UI_UX_PRIORITY_PLAN.md`: **DESIGN-004 Product Detail premium commerce hierarchy + gallery polish is next**, followed by secondary-screen consistency, motion/state polish, and cross-device visual QA. The next backend capability is **API-005 / 1.5.0 — administrator identities, scoped credentials and key rotation**, queued behind the P0 design program unless a critical backend/security/data blocker requires it sooner.

- Issue: `#43` — completed.
- Original stale draft PR: `#44` — closed and superseded.
- Final PR: `#56`.
- Final validated head: `bea9603ce7307c07665645cab9646f8c694019ee`.

### API-004 phase boundary

- API-004 intentionally does not provide product/variant create or delete endpoints; stable catalog identity remains fixed.
- Product `category` was deliberately kept locked despite the early planning note because it participates in the released discovery taxonomy.
- One strong shared backend Bearer token is sufficient for this slice, but it does not yet model named administrators, scopes, credential rotation, revocation or per-identity attribution.
- Product facts remain governed by `docs/PRODUCT_MASTER.md`.
- Amazon remains the purchase destination.
- No web Admin UI/CMS, customer authentication, remote Favorites sync, cart, checkout, payment or order processing was introduced.

## API-005 execution boundary

API-005 is the next backend capability after API-004. It should replace the single shared administration credential with identity-aware, scoped and rotatable credentials without changing the released public catalog contract or the current Product Master authoring guardrails.

Expected principles:

1. Named administrator/service identities replace anonymous shared-token attribution.
2. Credentials are hashed at rest, rotatable, revocable and never returned after creation.
3. Authorization scopes separate read, authoring and audit capabilities.
4. Existing API-004 revision checks and immutable audit history are preserved and upgraded to identity attribution.
5. Public `GET /api/v1/catalog` remains backward compatible and unauthenticated.
6. Stable IDs, Product Master facts, category, ASIN, Pantone, ordering and relationships remain locked unless a separately approved migration changes policy.
7. Flutter does not need a navigation or public-contract rewrite.
8. No cart, checkout, payment or order processing is introduced.

## Guardrails

1. `main` is stable-only and is the owner-facing source of truth.
2. Implementation work uses dedicated task branches and only reaches `main` after the relevant CI gates are green.
3. `Last verified APK/WALKA-latest.apk` is the owner-facing Android install target; failed/stale builds must not replace it.
4. Do not send or offer ZIP files through project chat for Android delivery.
5. `Images/` remains the master visual-reference folder and must not be modified by implementation tasks.
6. `docs/PRODUCT_MASTER.md` is the source of truth for product facts and approved usage/care language.
7. Product facts must not be inferred from mockups, stale branches or third-party catalog copies.
8. Backend and mobile work extend successful releases rather than discarding completed architecture.
9. New work stays in small, independently reviewable and releasable slices.
10. Every slice must pass the relevant backend and/or Flutter gates before merge.
11. Product copy must preserve approved lunch-box safety/usage language.
12. Laravel/API integration must not silently introduce in-app checkout or duplicate Amazon marketplace responsibilities.
