Ready to Wire (For Dev)

Frontend complete, needs backend • 5 routes • ~15h total

Needs Iteration (For Business)

Prototypes needing refinement • 3 routes • 2 with user feedback

  • /controls
    Users confused by multi-step workflow
    👥 User Feedback
    “I don't understand why I need to click 'Next' three times to create a control”
  • /compliance-calendar
    Too complex for initial use case
    👥 User Feedback
    “Show me deadlines only, not every single compliance task”
  • /risk-matrix
    Visual hierarchy unclear (internal review)
    🔍 Internal Review
    Color coding doesn't clearly distinguish risk levels

Validate Foundations

Verify AI-generated research and polish UX—evergreen work that cascades across the platform

📊 Analyst Queue (2 unverified docs)

Deep domain research - validate AI-generated content with expert knowledge

JTBD Agentic Buttons Research
🔴 Critical
Impact: Informs all Agentic Button design decisions and JTBD workflow patterns
Why urgent: Active prototypes use these JTBD patterns - needs domain expert validation before customer demos
Needs Verification:
  • •Verify GRC personas' jobs are authentic
  • •Validate functional/emotional/social job dimensions
  • •Confirm JTBD framework application is accurate
Effort: 3-4h
📄 docs/JTBD_AGENTIC_BUTTONS_RESEARCH.md
GRC First Principles Mapping
🔴 Critical
Impact: Informs all GRC feature design, compliance accuracy, and framework alignment
Why urgent: Platform claims compliance with these frameworks - must be expert-validated for credibility
Needs Verification:
  • •Verify ISO 37301, COSO, IIA alignment is accurate
  • •Validate AAOIFI Islamic finance compliance mapping
  • •Confirm risk/control objectives are correct
Effort: 4-5h
📄 docs/GRC_FIRST_PRINCIPLES_MAPPING.md

🎨 CBO Queue (2 need UX review)

Evergreen UX improvements - novice outsider perspective reveals hidden complexity

Agentic Button UX Patterns
🔴 High
Area: Core interaction patterns across all prototypes
Why this matters: Core pattern used everywhere - novice perspective will reveal confusing terminology
Review Questions:
  • •Are pre-flight analyses clear to GRC novices?
  • •Does option ranking make sense to outsiders?
  • •Is the "why this matters" explanation compelling?
Effort: 2-3h
Platform Overview Navigation
🟡 Medium
Area: app/platform/page.tsx - this page
Why this matters: First page users see - needs outsider UX validation
Review Questions:
  • •Is three-tier architecture intuitive for first-time users?
  • •Are PM/Business/Dev sections self-explanatory?
  • •Does sticky nav help or clutter?
Effort: 1-2h

Business Alignment Tool

Scientific method for validating business strategy changes (JTBD Playbook V4)

JTBD Playbook V4: Evidence-Based Alignment Workflow

Context → Assumptions with Scenarios → Research Validation → Evidence-Based Plan → Approval

1

Input Business Context

30 min

Drop business context file here

.md, .txt, or paste directly

2

Generate Assumptions with Scenarios

30-60 min

Gap analysis with explicit assumptions will appear here

Output: Each gap becomes an assumption with scenario analysis:

  • IF CONFIRMED: [Design implications]
  • IF REJECTED: [Alternative approach]
  • IF CONDITIONAL: [What varies, how to handle]

Script: npx tsx scripts/workflows/gap-analysis-remediation/plan-generator.ts

3

Deep Discovery Research

2-3 hours

6-Step Meta-Discovery Framework:

1.
User Journey Mapping (30-45 min)

Web search: User pain points, common questions, mistakes (actual quotes with sources)

2.
Domain Expertise (30-45 min)

Research: Regulatory requirements, competitor positioning, mature platform patterns

3.
Cognitive Load Analysis (15-20 min)

Analyze: Jargon familiarity, buyer comprehension, messaging clarity

4.
Accountability & Trust (15-20 min)

Research: Required proof points, credibility signals, certification needs

5.
Failure Modes (15-20 min)

Identify: How buyers misunderstand, common objections, red flags

6.
Pattern Design (15-20 min)

Study: Mature vendor messaging structure, proven value props, conversion patterns

Script: npx tsx scripts/jtbd/discovery-generator.ts

Validation Gate Checklist:

Each assumption has evidence (URLs, citations, research findings)
Each question has an answer (not a guess, but researched)
Can explain WHY each assumption was confirmed/rejected/modified
Found at least one surprise (something that changed understanding)
Identified at least one conditional scenario (depends on X)
4

Refine Plan with Evidence

30-60 min

Validated remediation plan will appear here

Quick Wins (2-4 hours)

Medium Effort (4-8 hours)
--
Deferred (Large projects)

Script: npx tsx scripts/jtbd/plan-refiner.ts

5

Present for Approval

Iterative

Each change presented with evidence and rationale for user approval

For each change:

  • Current state (exact code/text)
  • Proposed new state (exact replacement)
  • Evidence (research sources, URLs, quotes)
  • Rationale (why this change, what risk mitigated)
  • User decision: Approve / Reject / Amend
6

Review Changes with Redlines

5-10 min

What will happen: Opens full-page document editor showing Changes 1 & 2 with AI suggestions and track changes view.

Features: Accept/reject each change, see before/after redlines, edit manually if needed.

Route: /editor/[id] (existing Harvey AI-inspired editor)
