Find TODO and FIXME Comments

Search the training materials codebase for TODO and FIXME comments to identify pending work.

Execute from repository root. See ../​shared/​repo-conventions.md for directory structure.

Tasks to Perform

  1. Search Markdown Files

    • Use Grep to find TODO and FIXME in docs/​**/​*.md
    • Capture file path, line number, and full comment
    • Note context (which module/​lesson)
  2. Search Nextflow Scripts

    • Find TODO/​FIXME in **/​*.nf files
    • Distinguish between training examples and solution code
    • Note if in core examples or side-quests
  3. Search Configuration Files

    • Check mkdocs.yml
    • Check .github/​**/​*.yml and .github/​**/​*.py
    • Check CONTRIBUTING.md
  4. Categorize Results

    • High Priority: Marked as FIXME, TODO(urgent), or blocking
    • Documentation: TODOs in markdown files
    • Code: TODOs in .nf or .py files
    • Configuration: TODOs in config files
  5. Check Known Issues

    • Read CONTRIBUTING.md for any documented TODOs
    • Note which are tracked vs untracked
