## 📋 **Active Tasks**

### **1. Visual Experiment Designer Enhancement**
**Status**: 🚧 **In Progress**  
**Priority**: High  
**Target Completion**: This Sprint

**Objective**: Revamp the experiment designer to better align with paper specifications and provide enhanced visual programming capabilities.

**Current State**:
- ✅ Basic drag-and-drop functionality implemented
- ✅ 4 step types available (Wizard Action, Robot Action, Parallel Steps, Conditional Branch)
- ✅ Real-time saving with auto-save
- ✅ Professional UI with loading states

**Planned Enhancements**:
- 🚧 **Enhanced Visual Programming Interface**
  - Improved step visualization with better iconography
  - Advanced connection lines between steps
  - Better indication of step relationships and dependencies
  
- 🚧 **Step Configuration Modals**
  - Detailed parameter editing for each step type
  - Context-aware input fields based on step type
  - Validation and preview capabilities
  
- 🚧 **Advanced Step Types**
  - Timer/Delay steps for precise timing control
  - Loop constructs for repetitive actions
  - Variable assignment and manipulation
  - Error handling and recovery steps
  
- 🚧 **Workflow Validation**
  - Real-time validation of experiment logic
  - Detection of incomplete or invalid configurations
  - Helpful suggestions for improvement
  
- 🚧 **Enhanced User Experience**
  - Better drag-and-drop feedback
  - Undo/redo functionality
  - Copy/paste for steps and sequences
  - Template library for common patterns

**Technical Implementation**:
```typescript
// Enhanced step configuration interface
interface StepConfiguration {
  type: 'wizard_action' | 'robot_action' | 'parallel' | 'conditional' | 'timer' | 'loop';
  parameters: StepParameters;
  validation: ValidationRules;
  dependencies: StepDependency[];
}

// Advanced drag-and-drop with better UX
const EnhancedExperimentDesigner = () => {
  // Implementation with improved visual feedback
  // Better step relationship visualization
  // Enhanced configuration modals
};
```

### **2. Documentation Consolidation**
