# Dependency graph
requires:
  - phase: 10-multi-question-schema (plan 01)
    provides: Multi-question schema with QuestionItem and id fields
provides:
  - Batched answers support via Record<string, string>
  - resume() method accepts answers map keyed by question ID
  - formatAnswersAsPrompt helper for Claude CLI
affects: [phase-11-architect-agent, phase-12-phase-task-decomposition]

# Phase 10 Plan 02: Manager Implementation Summary

**Updated ClaudeAgentManager and MockAgentManager resume() to accept batched answers map instead of single prompt**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 4 min
- **Started:** 2026-01-31T16:59:31Z
- **Completed:** 2026-01-31T17:03:17Z
- **Tasks:** 2
- **Files modified:** 10

## Accomplishments

- Changed resume() signature from `(agentId, prompt)` to `(agentId, answers)`
- Added formatAnswersAsPrompt() helper that formats answers as structured text
- Updated tRPC schema and router for new API shape
- Updated CLI to accept JSON or single answer (backward compatible)
- All downstream tests updated for new signature

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Update ClaudeAgentManager** - `d012680` (feat)
2. **Task 2: Update MockAgentManager** - `a9e46a2` (feat)
3. **Downstream fixes** - `2c41e52` (fix)

## Files Created/Modified

- `src/agent/types.ts` - Changed resume() signature in AgentManager interface
- `src/agent/manager.ts` - Updated ClaudeAgentManager.resume() and added formatAnswersAsPrompt()
- `src/agent/mock-manager.ts` - Updated MockAgentManager.resume()
- `src/agent/manager.test.ts` - Updated tests for new signature
- `src/agent/mock-manager.test.ts` - Updated tests for new signature
- `src/trpc/router.ts` - Changed resumeAgentInputSchema: prompt -> answers
- `src/cli/index.ts` - Updated CLI to accept JSON or single answer
- `src/test/e2e/edge-cases.test.ts` - Updated E2E tests
- `src/test/e2e/recovery-scenarios.test.ts` - Updated E2E tests
- `src/test/harness.test.ts` - Updated test harness tests

## Decisions Made

| Decision | Rationale |
|----------|-----------|
| Answers as Record<string, string> | Natural mapping: question ID -> user's answer |
| Format as `[id]: answer` lines | Clear structure for Claude to parse on resume |
| CLI fallback to `{q1: answer}` | Backward compatible for simple single-answer cases |

## Deviations from Plan

### Auto-fixed Issues

**1. [Rule 3 - Blocking] Updated downstream code for new API**
- **Found during:** Task 1 (Signature change broke compilation)
- **Issue:** Schema change cascaded to router, CLI, and E2E tests
- **Fix:** Updated all downstream files to use new answers map signature
- **Files modified:** router.ts, cli/index.ts, edge-cases.test.ts, recovery-scenarios.test.ts, harness.test.ts
- **Verification:** npm run build passes, npm test passes (383 tests)
- **Committed in:** 2c41e52 (separate commit for downstream fixes)

---

**Total deviations:** 1 auto-fixed (blocking issue)
**Impact on plan:** Necessary downstream cascade updates. No scope creep.

## Issues Encountered

None - plan executed with expected downstream updates.

## User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

## Next Phase Readiness

- Multi-question schema complete with batched answer support
- Ready for Phase 11 (Architect Agent) which can use multi-question flows
- Both managers handle questions array and answers map consistently
