178  ## ๐Ÿš€ Deployment Readiness
179  
180  **Current:** ๐ŸŸก Beta / Testing Phase
181  
182  **Before Production:**
183  - [ ] Interactive testing complete
184  - [ ] Performance validated
185  - [ ] Error handling verified
186  - [ ] Cross-platform builds
187  - [ ] Installation documentation
188  - [ ] User guide
189  
190  **Estimated Time to Production:** ~5-8 hours of work
191  
192  ---
193  
194  ## ๐Ÿ“ Known Limitations
195  
196  1. **Subprocess Latency** - ~100-300ms overhead (HTTP will fix)
197  2. **No Streaming** - Waits for full response (HTTP will fix)
198  3. **Approximate Timing** - Uses fixed estimates not real timestamps
199  4. **No RAG** - Document support not implemented yet
200  5. **Basic Help** - Could be more comprehensive
201  
202  **All addressable** in upcoming phases.
203  
204  ---
205  
206  ## ๐Ÿ’ก Next Session Priority
207  
208  1. **Test interactively** (30 min) - Verify everything works
209  2. **Fix bugs found** (1-2 hours) - Address issues
210  3. **Complete Phase 4** (2 hours) - Finish features
211  4. **Polish Phase 5** (3 hours) - Cross-platform, optimization
212  
213  **Goal:** Production-ready Go TUI in 1-2 more sessions
