# Dogfooding Yoi This repository is developed with Yoi itself. Dogfooding is valuable because it exposes orchestration, memory, TUI, and workflow problems under real use. ## What to record When a tool limitation, workflow obstacle, or model-facing policy problem blocks work, record it under `docs/report/` or a work item artifact. Do not turn every minor annoyance into a maintained design doc. A report is useful when it explains: - what the agent/user tried to do - what made the work unsafe, confusing, or slow - what design boundary was missing - what evidence was observed ## Runtime command caveat After rebuilding and restarting during dogfooding, `current_exe()` can point at a deleted binary path. Use typed runtime-command configuration and the development-only `YOI_POD_RUNTIME_COMMAND` executable override rather than reviving shell-command overrides. ## Multi-Pod work Use child Pods for scoped tasks and reviews, but keep orchestration decisions in visible project records. Do not merge, close, or clean up merely because a child notification arrived. ## Secrets and logs Do not put secrets, private prompts, or ignored secret-like file contents into diagnostics, work items, docs, session logs, or model context. During broad audits, existence/path checks are enough unless the user explicitly asks to inspect content.
