📂 03_INFRA Root Reorganization

Date: 2025-10-16 Purpose: Clean up 03_INFRA root directory by organizing meta-documentation Impact: Improved navigability, clear separation of concerns


🎯 Motivation

The root of 03_INFRA had accumulated 15+ files including: - Audit reports - Progress reports - Analysis documents - Temporary scripts - README

Problem: Cluttered root directory made it hard to: - Navigate to actual infrastructure modules - Find historical reports - Distinguish temporary vs permanent files - Onboard new developers

Solution: Create organized _docs/ structure for meta-documentation


📊 Before & After

BEFORE (Cluttered Root)

03_INFRA/
├── 03_INFRA_AUDIT_REPORT.md            ⚠️ Mixed with modules
├── AUDIT_REPORT_CORRECTED_2025-10-09.md
├── WEEK_1_COMPLETION_REPORT.md
├── WEEK_2_COMPLETION_REPORT.md
├── EXECUTIVE_SUMMARY_FINAL.md
├── SETUP_COMPLETE.md
├── 03_04_TESTING_REALITY.md
├── INFRA_REORGANIZATION_COMPLETE.md

├── README.md
├── 03_00_development_environment/      ⚠️ Hard to find among reports
├── 03_01_version_control/
├── 03_02_build_infrastructure/
├── ... (15 module directories)

Issues: - 10+ report files mixed with module directories - No clear distinction between active vs historical - Temporary scripts in root - Difficult to navigate

🔮 Future Considerations

When to Add New Files

Add to _docs/reports/audits/: - Infrastructure health checks - Module completeness assessments - Compliance reports

Add to _docs/reports/progress/: - Weekly/monthly completion reports - Milestone documentation - Setup completion status

Add to _docs/reports/analysis/: - Deep-dive module investigations - Gap analysis - Architecture reviews

Add to _docs/archive/: - Retired scripts (keep for reference) - One-time migration utilities - Temporary automation tools

Naming Convention

  • Audits: {SCOPE}_AUDIT_REPORT_{DATE}.md
  • Progress: WEEK_{N}_COMPLETION_REPORT.md or {MILESTONE}_COMPLETE.md
  • Analysis: {MODULE}_{TOPIC}_{TYPE}.md
  • Archive: Keep original names + optional date suffix
