# GuruRMM Feature Request -> RMM Thoughts

When Howard (or Mike) submits a GuruRMM feature request, **capture it as a raw entry in
the RMM Thoughts backlog** — do NOT jump straight to a full spec or the roadmap. Those
are downstream, decision-gated stages.

Pipeline (see `.claude/memory/feedback_rmm_thoughts_backlog.md`):
**THOUGHT (this command, Status: Raw) -> DISCUSS -> SPEC (`/shape-spec` -> `specs/<slug>/`)
-> ROADMAP (`docs/FEATURE_ROADMAP.md`) -> BUILD.**

Backlog doc: `projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm/docs/RMM_THOUGHTS.md`.

---

## Phase 1 — Light triage (Ollama, optional)

Read `.claude/identity.json` for the user (Howard/Mike) and the Ollama endpoint
(`.ollama.endpoint`). Call Ollama `qwen3.6:latest` (strict JSON) for a LIGHT triage —
NOT deep research, NOT a spec:

```
You are triaging a GuruRMM feature request into a backlog. Request: $ARGUMENTS
Respond JSON only:
{"title": "short kebab-or-title-case name", "summary": "1-2 sentence plain-English summary",
 "section_guess": "Core Agent | Server/API | Dashboard & UI | Platform | Integrations | Security | Alerting | Other",
 "priority_guess": "P1|P2|P3"}
```

If Ollama is unreachable, do this triage yourself. Do NOT search the codebase or write a
spec at this stage.

---

## Phase 2 — Append to RMM Thoughts

Append a new entry to the bottom of `projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm/docs/RMM_THOUGHTS.md`:

```markdown

## <Title>
- Added: <Howard|Mike>, <YYYY-MM-DD> | Status: Raw | section guess: <section> | priority guess: <P?>

<the request, in the submitter's words> <one-line triage summary if it adds clarity>
```

Keep it short — it is a RAW thought, not a spec. Do not embellish or design it.

---

## Phase 3 — Notify + track

- **Coord todo** (so it is visible fleet-wide), via `coord` skill:
  `todo add "RMM THOUGHT (Raw): <title> — <summary>. See docs/RMM_THOUGHTS.md." --project gururmm --auto --source "feature-request by <who> <date>"`
- **If Howard submitted it**, send a coord message so Mike sees it:
  `msg send ALL "RMM Thought added: <title>" "<who> added a GuruRMM thought (Status: Raw) to docs/RMM_THOUGHTS.md: <summary>. Ready to discuss when you are — not spec'd or roadmapped yet."`

---

## Phase 4 — Commit (docs-only, gururmm repo)

```bash
cd projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm
git checkout -b docs/rmm-thought-<slug>
git add docs/RMM_THOUGHTS.md
git commit -m "docs(rmm-thoughts): add thought - <title> (requested by <who>)"   # + Co-Authored-By trailer
git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main
git push origin docs/rmm-thought-<slug>:main
git checkout main && git merge --ff-only origin/main && git branch -d docs/rmm-thought-<slug>
```

Do NOT touch the parent repo submodule pointer.

---

## Phase 5 — Respond

Tell the user the request was **added to RMM Thoughts at Status: Raw** — summarize it,
and say it will be discussed before any spec or roadmap entry. Do NOT claim a spec was
created or that it is on the roadmap.

```
[OK] Added to RMM Thoughts (Status: Raw)

<Title>  (section guess: <section> | priority guess: <P?>)
<summary>

Next: we discuss it -> /shape-spec if approved -> roadmap -> build.
Tracked: coord todo <id>.<if Howard: coord message sent to Mike.>
```

---

## Notes

- This command does NOT auto-create a SPEC-XXX doc or a roadmap entry anymore. The old
  behaviour (full Ollama spec generation + roadmap edit on every request) jumped past the
  discuss stage; spec work now happens via `/shape-spec` once a thought is approved.
- To advance a thought later: discuss it (-> Status: Discussed), `/shape-spec` it
  (-> Spec'd, `specs/<slug>/`), then add it to `FEATURE_ROADMAP.md` (-> Roadmapped).
- Ollama unreachable: do the triage yourself, no degradation. Coord API down: warn and
  continue (the doc commit is the durable record).
