STAGE 04

Remove accidental variation.

Remove leftover values across the whole prototype and put the same control in one place while preserving intended behavior.

Complete when

Leftover values are genuinely out of the relevant files; repeated controls use the shared system; the coverage map moves only where the implementation moved.

Not done if

An architecture rewrite; deleting screens for tidiness; labeling leftovers “Tokens” without changing the files; starting Wire work early.

Evidence before advancement

  • Review the whole product scope relevant to this stage, not a hand-picked sample.
  • Compare the stage’s stated job with what changed in files, behavior, documentation, and coverage.
  • If the evidence falls short, keep the product on this stage rather than advancing the tracker.
  • Do not start the next stage’s work merely because the next step is obvious.

Keep the two clocks separate.

The From Prototype stage tracker says which job the product is doing now. Coverage says what portions of the design system are actually resolved. Stage movement is not permission to relabel unresolved coverage.
