# Implementation Plan - Enhanced State Management System

## Overview

This document provides a detailed, step-by-step implementation plan for the enhanced state management system. Each step is designed to be small, testable, and independently valuable while maintaining backward compatibility.

## Development Principles

### Quality Gates
Every step must pass these checks before proceeding:
1. `golangci-lint run --fix` - no linting issues
2. `go test ./...` - all tests pass
3. Existing functionality remains intact
4. New functionality has appropriate test coverage

### KISS Principle
- Write the simplest code that works
- Avoid premature optimization
- Use straightforward algorithms
- Build incrementally with small changes

### Leverage Existing Systems
- Reuse interaction recording for request/response tracking
- Build upon current parity mismatch detection
- Extend existing datastore patterns
- Integrate with established workflows

# Before each commit
golangci-lint run --fix
go test ./...
go test -race ./...
```

#### Milestone Validation
```bash
# Before marking milestone complete
golangci-lint run --fix
go test ./... -v
go test -race ./... -v
go test ./... -bench=.
```

#### Integration Validation
```bash
# Test with real soundtouch-service
make build
./soundtouch-service &
# Run integration test suite
make integration-test
```

## Risk Mitigation
