Version: 2.0 Status: ✅ COMPLETE (2.0.0-alpha.5) Last Updated: 2025-10-09 Completion Date: 2025-10-09 Duration: 8 weeks (as planned)
This document provides a detailed implementation roadmap for Phase 2: Installation and Upgrade Management of the AI CLI Preparation tool. It translates the requirements from PRD.md and architectural decisions from ADR-001 through ADR-006 into actionable development phases with specific deliverables, testing strategies, and success criteria.
Target Audience: Developers implementing Phase 2 features
Prerequisites:
- Phase 1 complete (detection and auditing capabilities)
- Familiarity with PRD requirements and ADR decisions
- Python 3.10+ development environment
Transform AI CLI Preparation from a read-only auditing tool into a full lifecycle management system capable of:
- Automated Installation: Install missing tools with context-aware strategies
- Intelligent Upgrades: Update outdated tools with breaking change awareness
- Conflict Resolution: Reconcile multiple installations via PATH management
- Configuration Management: User-controlled behavior via .cli-audit.yml
- Rollback Capability: Snapshot-based restoration for failed upgrades
Key Metrics:
- Installation success rate: >90% first-attempt
- Time to readiness: <10 minutes for fresh system
- Breaking change detection: >90% accuracy for major versions
- Configuration validation: 100% error detection
Goal: Establish core infrastructure for context-aware installations without executing actual installations

graph TD
A[Phase 2.1: Foundation] --> B[Phase 2.2: Core Installation]
B --> C[Phase 2.3: Bulk Operations]
B --> D[Phase 2.4: Upgrade Management]
C --> E[Phase 2.5: Reconciliation]
D --> E
Critical Path:
- Foundation must complete before any installation work
- Core installation must work before bulk operations
- Reconciliation depends on both bulk and upgrade features
Parallel Opportunities:
- Phases 2.3 and 2.4 can be developed in parallel (different features)
- Testing can happen concurrently with development
Risks:
- Network failures during download
- Permission errors (no sudo access)
- Corrupted downloads
- Package manager unavailable
Mitigation:
- Retry logic with exponential backoff (3 attempts)
- Clear error messages with resolution guidance
- Checksum verification for all downloads
- Fallback package managers (hierarchy)
- Pre-flight checks (permissions, disk space, network)
Risks:
- Major version upgrades break user workflows
- Unexpected API changes
- Flag deprecations
Mitigation:
- Always-warn policy for major upgrades
- Context-aware confirmation (workstation vs server)
- Snapshot creation before upgrades
- Rollback capability
- Link to release notes in warnings
Risks:
- Multiple installations create confusion
- Wrong version used
- System breakage
Mitigation:
- Parallel reconciliation (keep both, prefer user)
- PATH verification and guidance
- Clear reporting of active version
- Option for aggressive cleanup
Risks:
- Malformed YAML breaks operations
- Invalid version constraints
- Typos in tool names
Mitigation:
- Schema validation catches errors early
- Clear validation error messages
- Configuration init command generates valid defaults
- Configuration validate command
Risks:
- Multiple installations consume space
- Large downloads fill disk
Mitigation:
- Pre-check available disk space
- Warn if space < 500MB
- Aggressive reconciliation removes duplicates
Test Categories:
-
Environment Detection (
test_environment.py)- CI detection with various env vars
- Server detection with user counts
- Edge cases (1-2 users, single-user server)
-
Configuration (
test_config.py)- YAML parsing (valid, malformed, edge cases)
- Schema validation (all fields, invalid values)
- Multi-location precedence
- Merging logic
-
Package Manager Selection (
test_package_managers.py)- Hierarchy following
- Config overrides
- Fallback behavior
- Availability checks
-
Installation (
test_install.py)- Each installer (uv, cargo, npm, GitHub, apt)
- Retry logic
- Checksum verification
- Error handling
-
Upgrades (
test_upgrade.py)- Version comparison
- Breaking change detection
- Rollback logic
-
Reconciliation (
test_reconcile.py)- Installation detection
- PATH ordering
- Parallel vs aggressive
Test Scenarios:
-
Fresh System Setup
- Install agent-core preset on clean system
- Verify all tools accessible
- Verify versions correct
-
Upgrade Workflow
- Install old versions of tools
- Run upgrade --all
- Verify major version warnings
- Test rollback
-
Reconciliation
- Install tool via apt
- Install same tool via cargo
- Run reconcile
- Verify user version active
-
Configuration Override
- Create .cli-audit.yml with overrides
- Verify overrides applied
- Test precedence (project > user > system)
-
Error Recovery
- Simulate network failures
- Test retry logic
- Verify error messages helpful
Full Workflows:
-
Developer Workstation Setup
# Fresh laptop cli_audit install --preset agent-core # Verify: 20+ tools installed, all accessible # Time: <5 minutes
-
Shared Server Upgrade
# Server with existing tools cli_audit upgrade --all # Verify: Major upgrades require confirmation # Verify: Advisory locks prevent conflicts (future)
-
CI/CD Pipeline
# Container with snapshot export CI=true cli_audit install --snapshot tools_snapshot.json # Verify: Exact versions installed # Time: <3 minutes (cached)

| Single tool install | <30s | Time (excluding download) |
| Bulk install (10 tools) | <5 min | Time (parallel) |
| Upgrade check | <10s | Time (parallel upstream queries) |
| Reconciliation | <5s | Time to detect_installations() |
