Major Updates:
- Created DEVELOPMENT_GUIDANCE.md - comprehensive status report and strategic direction
* Full project assessment (75-85% complete)
* Current status: Phases 2.5-3.1 built (85%), integration needed
* Development strategy: Continue using Claude Code, defer LLM API integration
* Priority initiatives: Phase 3.2 Integration, NXOpen docs, Engineering pipeline
* Foundation for future: Feature documentation pipeline specification
Key Strategic Decisions:
- LLM API integration deferred - use Claude Code for development
- Phase 3.2 Integration is TOP PRIORITY (2-4 weeks)
- NXOpen documentation access - high priority research initiative
- Engineering feature validation pipeline - foundation for production rigor
Documentation Alignment:
- Updated README.md with current status (75-85% complete)
- Added clear links to DEVELOPMENT_GUIDANCE.md for developers
- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md to reflect Phase 3.2 integration focus
- Corrected status indicators across all docs
New Initiatives Documented:
1. NXOpen Documentation Integration
- Authenticated access to Siemens docs
- Leverage NXOpen Python stub files for intellisense
- Enable LLM to reference NXOpen API during code generation
2. Engineering Feature Documentation Pipeline
- Auto-generate comprehensive docs for FEA features
- Human review/approval workflow
- Validation framework for scientific rigor
- Foundation for production-ready LLM-generated features
3. Validation Pipeline Framework
- Request parsing → Code gen → Testing → Review → Integration
- Ensures traceability and engineering rigor
- NOT for current dev, but foundation for future users
All documentation now consistent and aligned with strategic direction.
