Atlas Implementation Todo List

This document tracks the specific implementation tasks for Atlas, organized by feature slice and priority.

Current Development Status

The atlas/ directory represents the new clean architecture implementation. All existing code was moved to atlas_legacy/ to enable a fresh start with improved design patterns.

Status Legend

• ✅ Complete - Implementation finished and tested
• 🚧 In Progress - Implementation actively being worked on
• 🔄 Planned (Next) - Next items in the implementation queue
• 🔲 Planned (Future) - Designed but scheduled for later implementation

Priority Legend

• 🔴 High - Critical path tasks required for core functionality
• 🟠 Medium - Important tasks that enhance functionality
• 🟢 Low - Optional tasks that provide additional value
