📋 Decision Context

Question:

What validation approach is needed before AI app separation migration?

Task: Session 73.2: MVP-first approach for AI app separation - validate critical unknowns before migration

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

MVP-first approach: 10-day validation phase MUST complete before any route migration. MVP validates cross-iframe drag-drop latency, auth token flow, memory overhead, and performance. Go/No-Go decision based on concrete measurements, not assumptions.

Options Considered:

1. Proceed directly with migration (original plan)
2. MVP-first validation (10 days)
3. Proof-of-concept only (5 days)
4. Cancel project due to risks

💭 Reasoning

Original 85% confidence was overly optimistic. Cross-iframe drag-drop is completely untested in this codebase. HTML5 drag events don't propagate across iframe boundaries. Auth across different origins has known complications. Route migration is effectively irreversible. A 10-day MVP investment prevents potential multi-week disaster if assumptions prove wrong.
