Merge Design Documents

Goal: Produce a single, unified set of feature docs from two separate designs for the same feature.

Conventions

• Read capy knowledge base conventions at shared-capy-knowledge-protocol.md.

When to Use

You have two feature directories under /docs/feat/wip/ for the same feature — each with its own design, implementation plan, and task list — and you need to combine them into one coherent set of docs.

Workflow

Mandatory order — grounding before merging. The flow below is strictly sequential. Do not categorize sections, surface contradictions, or write merged content until you have read both feature directories fully and built a codebase-grounded mental model. Merging without grounding produces decisions based on prose clarity rather than codebase reality — the wrong tiebreaker.

See merge-process.md for the detailed steps.
