# [E] Evolution — Add Features to Existing Product
|
|
|
|
**Goal:** Incrementally add features to an existing product with minimal disruption.
|
|
|
|
**When to use:** Existing product needs new functionality. Changes should be targeted, not a complete rewrite.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## CORE PRINCIPLES
|
|
|
|
- **Backward compatible** — Existing functionality must keep working. Every change is verified against what already exists.
|
|
- **Feature flags if needed** — When a change is risky or requires staged rollout, use feature flags to decouple deployment from activation.
|
|
- **Incremental delivery** — Ship in small, verifiable increments. Each commit should leave the system in a working state.
|
|

|
|
## INITIALIZATION
|
|
|
|
### Design Log
|
|
Read `{output_folder}/_progress/00-design-log.md`. Check Current and Backlog for context.
|
|
|
|
### Essential Guides
|
|
|
|
- **[Execution Principles](data/guides/EXECUTION-PRINCIPLES.md)** — Document-first, plan-then-execute
|
|
- **[Session Protocol](data/guides/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md)** — Read dialog, verify plan, present status
|
|
- **[Inline Testing Guide](data/guides/INLINE-TESTING-GUIDE.md)** — Baseline capture before modifying existing features
|

|
## STEPS
|
|
|
|
Execute steps in `./steps-e/`:
|
|
|
|
| Step | File | Purpose |
|
|
|------|------|---------|
|
|
| 01 | step-01-scope-change.md | Define what changes vs what stays |
|
|
| 02 | step-02-analyze-impact.md | Analyze impact on existing code |
|
|
| 03 | step-03-plan-implementation.md | Plan incremental implementation |
|
|
| 04 | step-04-implement.md | Implement changes |
|
|
| 05 | step-05-verify-and-document.md | Verify, regression check, document |
|
|
|
|
**Flow:** 01 → 02 → 03 → 04 → 05
|
|
|
|
### Critical Rules
|
|
|
|
- **ALWAYS** map what is new vs what is modified vs what is untouched before coding
|
|
- **ALWAYS** capture baseline state of existing features before modifying them
|
|
- **ALWAYS** verify backward compatibility at each commit
|
|
- **ALWAYS** plan incremental commits — never one giant change
|
|
- **NEVER** break existing functionality to add new functionality
|
|
- **NEVER** skip impact analysis — surprises in production are expensive
|

## AFTER COMPLETION
|
|
|
|
1. Append a progress entry to `{output_folder}/_progress/00-design-log.md` under `## Progress`:
|
|
`### [date] — Evolution: [what was evolved/added]`
|
|
2. Suggest acceptance testing (Phase 5 [T]) to validate the changes
