# Project State: Itinerary Editor

## Project Reference

**Core Value:** Drag-and-drop that operates on semantic positions (day + sortOrder), not row indices - so user intent is preserved across data reloads.

**Current Focus:** Phase 1 Complete - Ready for Phase 2 (Constraint Validation)

## Current Position

**Phase:** 1 of 4 (Semantic Position Model) - COMPLETE
**Plan:** 2 of 2 complete
**Status:** Phase complete
**Last activity:** 2026-01-18 - Completed 01-02-PLAN.md

```
Progress: [##--------] 25%
Phase 1:  [##########] 100% (2/2 plans) COMPLETE
Phase 2:  [----------] Not Started
Phase 3:  [----------] Not Started
Phase 4:  [----------] Not Started

## Performance Metrics

| Metric | Value |

| Total Requirements | 23 |
| Completed | 8 |
| Current Phase | 1 (complete) |
| Plans Executed | 2 |

## Accumulated Context

### Key Decisions

| Decision | Rationale | Phase |
|----------|-----------|-------|
| UITableView over SwiftUI List | SwiftUI drag-drop lacks insertion line precision | Pre-planning |
| (day, sortOrder) position model | Row indices break on reload; semantic position is stable | Pre-planning |
| Insertion lines (not zones) | User wants precise feedback on exact drop location | Pre-planning |
| Invalid drops rejected (snap back) | Cleaner than auto-clamping; user knows what happened | Pre-planning |
| Games get sortOrder from 100 + minutes since midnight | Range 100-1540 leaves room for negative sortOrder items | 01-01 |
| Normalization threshold at 1e-10 | Standard floating-point comparison for precision exhaustion | 01-01 |
| Day 1 = trip.startDate | 1-indexed, games belong to their start date | 01-01 |
| Swift Testing (@Test) over XCTest | Matches existing project test patterns | 01-02 |
| LocalItineraryItem conversion for testing | Avoids #Predicate macro issues with local captures | 01-02 |

### Learned

- Previous attempts failed due to row-based thinking instead of semantic positioning
- Travel was incorrectly treated as structural ("travelBefore") instead of positional
- Hard-coded flatten order ignoring sortOrder caused reload issues
- SortOrderProvider provides static methods for all sortOrder calculations
- Trip extension provides instance methods for day number derivation
- 50 midpoint insertions maintain distinct sortOrder values before precision loss

### TODOs

- [x] Create tests for semantic position persistence (Plan 01-02) - COMPLETE

### Blockers

None currently.

## Session Continuity

**Last Session:** 2026-01-18T20:11:09Z
**Stopped at:** Completed 01-02-PLAN.md (Phase 1 complete)
**Resume file:** .planning/phases/02-constraint-validation/02-01-PLAN.md

### Context for Next Session

Phase 1 complete with 34 tests covering:
- SortOrderProvider: all 6 methods tested (22 tests)
- Position persistence: encode/decode, SwiftData conversion (12 tests)
- Requirements DATA-01 through DATA-05 and PERS-01 through PERS-03 verified

Ready to start Phase 2: Constraint Validation (drop rules, game immutability, valid drop targets).
