Prompt (verbatim)
==================

.. container:: verbatim-prompt

   READ and EXECUTE source/good-news-pack/vv/mmv3/learning-path-prompt_iv_LLoL_v1_2026m04d18.rst


What was done
==============

1. **Inventory completed.** Read all key index files across MMv3:

   - ``mmv3/index.rst`` (master gateway with toctree structure)
   - ``mmv3/collection-overview.rst`` (253 PDFs broken down by section)
   - ``mmv3/catalog-text.rst`` (file-level listing with download links)
   - 53 ``index.rst`` files across all mmv3 subdirectories
   - Key section indices: Open Letters, Supporting Documents, Flying Scroll,
     Transwarp Key, Extra Good News, Dusty Deep Data, About, Don't Panic Guide

2. **Five reader profiles defined:**

   - First-time visitor (5 min)
   - Curious investigator (30 min)
   - Serious evaluator (2--4 hours)
   - Scholar / theologian (8+ hours)
   - Journalist (15 min)

3. **Learning paths designed** with ordered sequences, reading times,
   prerequisites, and exit ramps for each profile.

4. **RST page created** at ``source/good-news-pack/vv/mmv3/learning-path.rst``

5. **GraphViz dot file created** at ``source/good-news-pack/vv/mmv3/learning-path-graph.dot``
   with ~28 nodes, color-coded by document type, dependency arrows,
   entry points, and exit ramps.

6. **mmv3 index.rst updated** to include learning-path in the Catalogs toctree.


Decisions
==========

- **Existing "Where to start" sequence preserved.** The mmv3 index, catalog-text,
  and collection-overview all already have the same 5-step intro sequence
  (DPG → SD1 → SD2 → SD3 → OLs). The learning path respects this as the
  canonical entry order rather than competing with it.

- **Page marked :orphan: for now.** The page is a mockup (MM stability). Once
  LLoL reviews and approves the structure, it can be formally connected to the
  toctree and given proper footer/FF treatment.

- **No footer/FF added yet.** This is an MM-stage page. Footer form should be
  added when the page moves to OO stability after LLoL review.

- **SGIR paper included in graph** as STa2-WWV node, reflecting current
  branch work.


Stretch goals
==============

- Convert the text-based dependency overview into an actual rendered image
  (compile the .dot file to SVG and embed it in the RST page)
- Add estimated page counts for each document alongside reading times
- Add a "What changed recently" section highlighting new additions
- Consider a "guided tour" interactive version using sphinx-tabs or
  sphinx-design cards
- Cross-link from OL9 (Reviewer's Guide) to this learning path as a
  companion resource
