# Research Findings: Afraid to Ask Feature
|
|
|
|
**Feature Branch**: `004-afraid-to-ask`
|
|
**Date**: October 13, 2025
|
|
**Spec**: ../../specs/004-afraid-to-ask/spec.md
|
|
|
|
## Clarification Decisions (from /speckit.clarify)
|
|
|
|
### Functional Scope - Out-of-Scope Items
|
|
- **Decision**: The feature will NOT handle moderation or filtering of offensive/illegal "Afraid to Ask" ideas. "Afraid to Ask" ideas will NOT influence session results beyond matching other users' "Want" or "Accept" desires. Long-term storage or analytics of "Afraid to Ask" ideas will NOT be performed.
|
|
- **Rationale**: Simplifies initial implementation, focuses on core privacy and matching logic. Moderation and advanced analytics are considered separate features.
|
|
- **Alternatives considered**: Implementing content moderation (rejected due to complexity and scope creep for initial release).
|
|
|
|
### Data Volume / Scale
|
|
- **Decision**: No specific maximum number of "Afraid to Ask" ideas per session or per user. The input field can contain one or multiple ideas within the text.
|
|
- **Rationale**: Accommodates flexible user input without imposing artificial limits, relying on semantic matching to process content.
|
|
- **Alternatives considered**: Imposing a numerical limit (rejected to avoid constraining user expression).
|
|
|
|
### Error/Empty/Loading States (Semantic Matching Service)
|
|
- **Decision**: If the semantic matching service is unavailable or returns an error, the UI will display a specific error message and prevent form submission.
|
|
- **Rationale**: Provides clear feedback to the user and prevents submission of data that cannot be processed correctly, maintaining data integrity.
|
|
- **Alternatives considered**: Displaying a generic error (rejected for lack of clarity), falling back to basic keyword matching (rejected for potential inaccuracy and degraded user experience).
|
|
|
|
### Performance (Semantic Matching Latency)
|
|
- **Decision**: No specific target latency for semantic matching. The UI will display a "Harmonizing desires" placeholder during the analysis.
|
|
- **Rationale**: Acknowledges the variable nature of LLM processing times and prioritizes user experience through clear feedback rather than strict time limits.
|
|
- **Alternatives considered**: Setting a strict latency target (rejected for potential over-engineering or unrealistic expectations for LLM performance).
|
|
|
|
### Compliance / Regulatory Constraints
|
|
- **Decision**: No specific regulatory requirements (like GDPR, HIPAA) apply beyond general data privacy best practices.
|
|
- **Rationale**: Simplifies compliance overhead while still ensuring responsible data handling.
|
|
- **Alternatives considered**: Assuming GDPR/HIPAA applicability (rejected as not directly relevant to the current feature scope).
