Phase 4 Plan 1: Dependency Bootstrap Summary
Added three external Go modules (go-git/v5, atotto/clipboard, x/exp/mmap) that Phase 4 input-source plans require, so Wave 1 parallel work can compile cleanly without dependency resolution thrash.
Objective
Resolve and record the three external Go dependencies needed for Phase 4 input sources — git history (INPUT-02), clipboard (INPUT-05), and memory-mapped large file reads (CORE-07) — in go.mod/go.sum so downstream plans compile on first attempt.
All three target modules are listed in go.mod under the indirect require block; they will be promoted to direct requires automatically by go mod tidy when Wave 1 plans add import statements.
go.sum contains checksums for all three modules and their transitive deps
Deviations from Plan
[Rule 3 - Blocking] Skipped go mod tidy
Found during: Task 1 verification
Issue: The plan's step sequence ended with go mod tidy, but tidy removes modules with no importing source file. Running it erased all three target modules from go.mod entirely (not even indirect), failing the acceptance criteria (grep "github.com/go-git/go-git/v5" go.mod returned nothing).
Fix: Re-added the three modules with go get, then ran go mod download (which populates go.sum without pruning unused modules) instead of go mod tidy. All three modules are now recorded as // indirect in go.mod — they will be auto-promoted to direct requires by the first Wave 1 plan that imports them.
Rationale: The plan explicitly stated "If go mod tidy moves a module to indirect, that is acceptable only if no source file yet imports it" — so indirect status is an allowed outcome. go mod download achieves the same checksum registration while keeping the modules in go.mod.
Decisions Made
Skip go mod tidy for bootstrap commits — Use go mod download instead when adding deps ahead of their consumers, so modules stay pinned in go.mod.
Accept indirect status — Wave 1 plans will promote these three modules to direct requires when they add import statements; no manual edit needed now.
Wave 1 plans (04-02 git source, 04-03 url source, 04-04 clipboard source, plus CORE-07 mmap reader) can now import from these modules without running their own go get. go mod tidy will naturally promote them to direct requires as their first import lands.
