Document lessons learned from chime-org-contacts.el development about
preventing parenthesis errors in Emacs Lisp code.
Key Topics:
- AI code generation strategies (small functions, immediate testing)
- Human developer tools (paredit, smartparens, rainbow-delimiters)
- Real-world case study from chime-org-contacts.el refactoring
- Tools and workflow summary table
Problem Identified:
Both AI and humans struggle with deeply nested Emacs Lisp functions
due to difficulty counting parentheses manually.
Solution Documented:
Break complex functions into small (< 15 line) helpers:
- Easier to verify correctness
- Easier to test independently
- Self-documenting through clear function names
- AI and humans both succeed
Tools Referenced:
- Structural editing: paredit, smartparens, lispy
- Real-time validation: flycheck, flymake
- Visual aids: rainbow-delimiters-mode
- CI/CD: pre-commit hooks with check-parens
This section serves as permanent reference for future Emacs Lisp
development in this repository and others.

Created emacs-inbox-zero session definition and validated it by
executing the workflow. Processed 5 inbox items to zero in 10 minutes.
Session Framework:
- Created docs/sessions/ directory for session definitions
- Added create-session.org (meta-workflow for creating sessions)
- Added emacs-inbox-zero.org (weekly inbox processing workflow)
- Updated NOTES.org with terminology and session tracking
Inbox Zero Results:
- Deleted 1 duplicate task (chime fix)
- Moved 2 to Method 1: org-capture performance [#B], EMMS keybindings [#D]
- Moved 2 to someday-maybe: dashboard icons, persistence files
- Recognized perfectionism pattern (V2MOM Obstacle #4)
Learnings captured in living documents:
- Save Q&A answers incrementally during session creation
- Capture useful context during triage (impact estimates, theories)
- Validation by execution catches what theory misses
Files reorganized:
- Renamed docs files to UPPERCASE for consistency
- Removed SESSION-HANDOFF-ACTIVE-PROJECT.org (replaced by NOTES.org)
V2MOM Metrics fulfilled:
- Weekly triage consistency: ✓ (2025-11-01)
- Active todo count: 29 items (working toward < 20)

- wrote a v2mom about what the config should deliver
- focused the inbox only on tasks related to the v2mom
- moved all other tasks to someday-maybe

Introduce detailed session handoff documents for Craig's Emacs
configuration project. These provide strategic clarity using the
V2MOM framework and outline current progress, project goals,
recommended actions, and key insights. This addition aims to
streamline handovers and ensure continuity between sessions,
facilitating a systematic approach to addressing identified
challenges and opportunities for improvement.
