What belongs in the document
Good Scott documents usually include:- the problem and desired outcome
- constraints, risks, and open questions
- architecture or product decisions
- prototype notes and screenshots when relevant
- implementation plan and rollout notes
- links to the code, PRs, or follow-up planspaces that matter
Versions
Scott saves document versions as the plan changes. A version is the stable thing a teammate can review and approve. Use versions when:- comments have changed the direction and you need a clean review point
- a reviewer needs to approve a specific plan, not a live draft
- a PR should link to the exact design version it implements
- you want to compare original intent with actual execution later
Editing
The author can keep iterating with Scott in chat, edit the document directly, or incorporate selected comments back into the conversation. The goal is not to preserve a perfect first draft. The goal is to make team feedback explicit and keep the document aligned with what the team intends to build.Review handoff
