# Wiki Enhancements Implementation Plan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Goal:** Add PACKING.md, WORKATION.md, HIGHLIGHTS.md to the repo root; add ⭐ highlights and workation callouts to all stop files; strip cycling-as-transport language; apply targeted per-file improvements.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Architecture:** Pure Markdown content changes. No code, no tooling. All files are in the repo root or `locations/`. Changes are independent per task — each task is self-contained and committable on its own.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tech Stack:** Markdown, git
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Global Constraints
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Trip is a **driving + sightseeing + workation** trip — not a cycling tour. Bike rental is fine as a day activity; loaded-tour cycling language must be removed.
|
||||||
|
- 3 colleagues travelling together in one electric car.
|
||||||
|
- Confirmed deadline: Dublin by Aug 29, game day Aug 30.
|
||||||
|
- All new files go in repo root (alongside README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md).
|
||||||
|
- `⭐` marker goes immediately before the item name in bullet lists, e.g. `- ⭐ **Slieve League Cliffs** — ...`
|
||||||
|
- Workation line format in Practical Info sections: `- **Workation:** <one line description>`
|
||||||
|
- No placeholders, no TBDs in any file.
|
||||||

### Task 2: Create WORKATION.md
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Files:**
|
||||||
|
- Create: `WORKATION.md`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 1: Create the file**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Write `/WORKATION.md` with this exact content:
|

|
|

# Workation Guide — Remote Work on the Road
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> 3 colleagues working remotely across UK, Isle of Man, Ireland, and France. Aug 4 – Sep 2, 2026.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Connectivity Setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Recommended Approach
|
||||||
|
One colleague buys a **Three UK SIM** on arrival at Harwich (available at Tesco, supermarkets, and convenience stores near the port). Three UK's Go Roam plan includes unlimited data roaming in Ireland at no extra cost — this single SIM covers England, Ireland, and France for the entire trip.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use it as a **shared mobile hotspot** for all 3 colleagues. For light work (async Slack, email, occasional video calls), one hotspot is sufficient. If all 3 need simultaneous video calls regularly, consider a second SIM.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Isle of Man Exception
|
||||||
|
The Isle of Man is a Crown Dependency with its own mobile networks (Manx Telecom, Sure). Most UK and Irish roaming plans exclude it or charge international rates. **Check your specific carrier's IoM policy before departure.** If not covered, options are:
|
||||||
|
- Buy a local SIM in Douglas (Manx Telecom shop on Strand Street)
|
||||||
|
- Use a global eSIM such as Airalo for the 2–4 days on the island
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### France Return Leg
|
||||||
|
Three UK Go Roam covers France. No additional SIM or setup needed for the Sep 1–2 return.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Apps to Install Before Departure
|
||||||
|
- Slack / Teams in offline mode
|
||||||
|
- VPN if required by your employer
|
||||||
|
- Cloud sync fully up to date (Google Drive / OneDrive / Dropbox offline files enabled)
|
||||||
|
- Download offline maps for Ireland and France (Maps.me or Google Maps offline areas)
|
||||||

## Per-Stop Workation Ratings
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Stop | Connectivity | Best Workspace | Rating |
|
||||||
|
|------|-------------|----------------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| Harwich | Good | Hotel lobby | ⚡ Pass-through |
|
||||||
|
| Cambridge | Excellent | Cafés near Market Square; CB1 Coffee | ★★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| York | Good | Cafés near the Shambles; Brew & Brownie | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Liverpool | Excellent | Baltic Triangle coworking spaces; hotel | ★★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Isle of Man (Douglas) | Good | Hotels; cafés on Strand Street | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Belfast | Excellent | Commercial Court area cafés; Wework-style coworking in city centre | ★★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Donegal | Poor–Fair | Donegal Town cafés only; expect 4G outdoors, spotty in rural west | ★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Sligo | Good | Sligo town cafés; Johnston Court area | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Westport (Mayo) | Good | Cafés on Bridge Street; hotels have reliable wifi | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Clifden (Connemara) | Fair | Clifden town centre cafés; signal drops sharply outside town | ★★ |
|
||||||
|
| **Galway** | **Excellent** | **Coffeewerk + Press (Kirwan's Lane) — best café on the WAW; multiple coworking spaces** | **★★★★★** |
|
||||||
|
| Clare (Ennis) | Fair–Good | Ennis town for serious work days; Doolin itself is too rural | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| Kerry (Killarney) | Good | Killarney town cafés; Dingle has 2–3 decent options | ★★★ |
|
||||||
|
| **Dublin** | **Excellent** | **3fe (Grand Canal), Clement & Pekoe, Indie coworking spaces on Dawson St** | **★★★★★** |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Notes
|
||||||
|
- **Best full work days:** Galway and Dublin. Plan your heaviest meetings / deadlines for these stops.
|
||||||
|
- **Avoid scheduling calls from:** Donegal coast, Clifden outskirts, Connemara bog roads, Doolin.
|
||||||
|
- **Isle of Man:** Douglas town is fine; connectivity drops outside the capital.
|
||||||
|
- **Ireland rural rule:** If you need 4G, stay within 5km of a town. The west coast is beautiful but the signal follows the roads.
|
||||||
|

## Unmissable Views
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. ⭐ **[Slieve League Cliffs, Donegal](locations/06a-donegal.md)** — The highest accessible sea cliffs in Europe, three times the height of the Cliffs of Moher, with a fraction of the crowds. Walk the One Man's Pass ridge for full effect.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. ⭐ **[Snaefell Summit, Isle of Man](locations/04-isle-of-man.md)** — The only place on earth where you can see five countries (England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Isle of Man) from one spot. Take the mountain railway up.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. ⭐ **[Keem Bay, Achill Island, Mayo](locations/06c-mayo.md)** — A pristine turquoise beach sitting in a natural cliffside amphitheatre. One of the most dramatic coastal landscapes in Ireland.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. ⭐ **[Cliffs of Moher at dawn, Clare](locations/06f-clare.md)** — Go before 9am. The cliffs are the same; the crowd is not. Walk south to Hag's Head for the best elevated perspective.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. ⭐ **[Slea Head Drive, Dingle, Kerry](locations/06g-kerry.md)** — The westernmost point of Europe. Beehive huts, ruined forts, the Blasket Islands across the water, Connor Pass above. The definitive Atlantic edge drive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## History & Culture
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. ⭐ **[Skellig Michael, Kerry](locations/06g-kerry.md)** — A 6th-century monastery on a sea stack 12km offshore. 618 stone steps, puffins, Star Wars. One of the most extraordinary places in Europe. **Book the boat in advance.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
7. ⭐ **[Dún Aonghasa, Inis Mór, Galway](locations/06e-galway.md)** — An Iron Age stone fort sitting directly on the edge of a 100m Atlantic cliff. No safety fence. The most dramatic ancient site in Ireland.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
8. ⭐ **[Giant's Causeway, Causeway Coast](locations/05-belfast.md)** — 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns formed by ancient volcanic activity. UNESCO World Heritage Site. Day trip from Belfast — go early.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
9. ⭐ **[Castle Rushen, Isle of Man](locations/04-isle-of-man.md)** — One of the best-preserved medieval castles in Europe, built by Norse kings. More impressive inside than it looks from the outside.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
10. ⭐ **[Book of Kells, Trinity College Dublin](locations/07-dublin.md)** — A 9th-century illuminated gospel manuscript and the Long Room library — one of the most beautiful rooms in the world. Book ahead.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Food, Drink & Music
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
11. ⭐ **[Traditional music session, Doolin, Clare](locations/06f-clare.md)** — Three pubs, sessions every night in August. McGann's, Gus O'Connor's, McDermott's. The real thing — not a tourist performance.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
12. ⭐ **[Seafood in Dingle, Kerry](locations/06g-kerry.md)** — Out of the Blue and Ashe's are the picks. The freshest seafood on the Wild Atlantic Way, in the most atmospheric town.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
13. ⭐ **[Matt Molloy's, Westport, Mayo](locations/06c-mayo.md)** — The pub owned by The Chieftains' flautist. Traditional music nightly. One of the best pub nights in Ireland.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
14. ⭐ **[Tigh Neachtain, Galway](locations/06e-galway.md)** — The traditional music epicentre of the Latin Quarter. Sessions most nights; Ard Bia nearby for the best meal in Galway.

## Unique to This Trip
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
15. ⭐ **[Aer Lingus College Football Classic, Aviva Stadium, Dublin — Aug 30](locations/07-dublin.md)** — Notre Dame vs Navy in a 51,700-seat stadium in Dublin. One of the most unusual sporting events in the world. The whole city gets involved.

## Practical Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Getting around:** Drive between sections; park up and walk or take short day hikes at each stop
|
||||||
|
- **Bike rental:** Available in Galway, Westport, Clifden, Killarney, and Dingle for day rides — worthwhile on Achill Island and Inis Mór where roads are quiet and flat-ish

- **Hiking gear:** Bring trail runners or light boots — Croagh Patrick, Slieve League, and Diamond Hill all reward a proper walk
|
||||||
|
- **Weather:** August is best but pack waterproofs — Atlantic squalls arrive without warning
|
||||||
|
- **Food:** Never more than 20km from a pub serving hot food. Pubs stop food service around 9pm.
|
||||||
|
- **Gaeltacht:** Connemara, north Mayo coast, and Donegal are Irish-speaking. Signs are Irish-first. Any attempt at Irish is met with delight.
|
||||||
|
- **Workation bases:** Galway and Dublin are the best for heavy work days. Westport, Killarney, and Dingle for lighter days.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 2: `06a-donegal.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**Cycling note:** Roads are narrow, hilly, and quiet. This is the hardest section but also the most rewarding. Don't skip it.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `**Driving note:** Roads are narrow — allow extra time. Park up and walk at Slieve League and Glenveagh rather than trying to rush between them.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 3: `06b-sligo.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `- **Cycling:** Flatter and more manageable than Donegal; the coast road to Strandhill is a good short ride`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `- **Getting around:** Compact and easy to drive. Strandhill is 8km from Sligo town — a quick drive or a pleasant walk along the estuary path.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 4: `06c-mayo.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**Achill Island** — Ireland's largest island, connected by a bridge. **Keem Bay** is a pristine turquoise beach sitting in a natural cliffside amphitheatre; the drive/cycle to it is one of the most dramatic in Ireland.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `**Achill Island** — Ireland's largest island, connected by a bridge. **Keem Bay** is a pristine turquoise beach sitting in a natural cliffside amphitheatre; the drive out to it is one of the most dramatic in Ireland. Rent a bike in Keel village for a few hours — the island roads are quiet and flat enough to be genuinely enjoyable.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 5: `06d-connemara.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `- **Sky Road (Clifden)** — 16km circular coastal road from Clifden town with elevated views over the Atlantic and offshore islands. One of Ireland's best cycling roads; manageable gradient, spectacular at every turn, and quiet enough even in August.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `- ⭐ **Sky Road (Clifden)** — 16km circular coastal road from Clifden with elevated views over the Atlantic and offshore islands. One of Ireland's best scenic drives; spectacular at every turn. You can also rent a bike in Clifden to ride it — the gradient is manageable.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**Cycling note:** The N59 through Connemara is manageable but busy in August. The inland bog roads (L-roads) are far quieter than the N59 in summer and far more beautiful. Prefer these for cycling.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `**Driving note:** The N59 through Connemara is fine but busy in August. The inland bog roads (L-roads) are far quieter and far more beautiful — take them where they run parallel to the main road.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 6: `06e-galway.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `- **Aran Islands (Inis Mór)** — Day trip or overnight from Rossaveal (40 min ferry). Inis Mór is the largest island: **Dún Aonghasa** is an Iron Age fort perching directly on the edge of a 100m Atlantic cliff — one of the most dramatic ancient sites in Europe. Rent a bike on the island; flat-ish roads, no cars to speak of.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `- ⭐ **Aran Islands (Inis Mór)** — Day trip or overnight from Rossaveal (40 min ferry). Inis Mór is the largest island: **Dún Aonghasa** is an Iron Age fort perching directly on the edge of a 100m Atlantic cliff — one of the most dramatic ancient sites in Europe. Rent a bike at the pier for the day — the island roads are nearly car-free and flat enough for anyone.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 7: `06f-clare.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `- **The Burren** — 250km² of limestone pavement unlike anything else in Ireland. Arctic, Mediterranean, and alpine plants grow in the same cracks. The **Green Road** above Ballyvaughan is an old drove road with wide views; the **Burren Way** cycling route follows quiet lanes through the heart of it.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `- **The Burren** — 250km² of limestone pavement unlike anything else in Ireland. Arctic, Mediterranean, and alpine plants grow in the same cracks. The **Green Road** above Ballyvaughan is an old drove road with wide views — a straightforward walk. The lanes between Ballyvaughan and Kilfenora are worth driving slowly.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 8: `06g-kerry.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**Cycling note:** The Dingle Peninsula is excellent — quiet roads, spectacular scenery, manageable gradients. If cycling, start before 8am and go counterclockwise.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: (delete entirely — driving tips are already in the main text)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `Busy with tourist coaches — if driving, go **counterclockwise** (opposite to coach direction) to avoid head-on meetings. If cycling, start before 8am.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `Busy with tourist coaches — drive **counterclockwise** (opposite to coach direction) to avoid head-on traffic on the narrow sections.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 9: `02-england-to-iom-ferry.md`**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `- **Cycle infrastructure** — World-class cycling city; good place to test any gear or pick up supplies before England.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Wait — this line is about Utrecht, which was removed. Search for any remaining cycling gear references:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find (in Cambridge section): any mention of "test gear" or "cycling supplies" — remove if present. If not present, skip.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 10: Commit**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|

### Task 6: Targeted per-file improvements + workation lines
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Files:**
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `locations/04-isle-of-man.md`
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `locations/05-belfast.md`
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `locations/06a-donegal.md` through `06g-kerry.md` (workation lines)
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `locations/08-return-via-france.md`
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `.ai-context.md`
|
||||||
|
- Modify: `README.md`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 1: `04-isle-of-man.md` — add dates + workation line**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the opening metadata block, add/update:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
> **Dates:** ~Aug 7–10 (adjust to match your Steam Packet booking)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In `## Practical Info`, add:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
- **Workation:** Douglas has decent hotel wifi and a handful of cafés on Strand Street. Fine for a half-day of work; not a coworking destination. See WORKATION.md for IoM SIM advice.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 2: `05-belfast.md` — add Giant's Causeway EV note**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the Day Trip section, after the `- **Giant's Causeway**` bullet, add:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
- **EV note:** The Giant's Causeway visitor centre car park has EV charging — top up while you walk the causeway.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 3: `08-return-via-france.md` — simplify toll section**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**French motorway tolls:** Budget ~€60–80 Cherbourg to Walldorf. Télépéage (Liber-t tag) speeds things up but card payment works at all tollbooths.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `**French motorway tolls:** Budget ~€60–80 Cherbourg to Walldorf. Card payment (Visa/Mastercard) works at all tollbooths — no special tag needed.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 4: Add workation lines to all 7 WAW section files**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add `- **Workation:** <text>` to the `## Practical Info` section of each file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06a-donegal.md`: `- **Workation:** Poor outside Donegal Town. Schedule light async work only for this section. See WORKATION.md for the full picture.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06b-sligo.md`: `- **Workation:** Good in Sligo town. Decent cafés with wifi; fine for a half-day remote session.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06c-mayo.md`: `- **Workation:** Good in Westport. Cafés on Bridge Street have reliable wifi. Good base for a morning of work before heading to Achill.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06d-connemara.md`: `- **Workation:** Fair in Clifden town centre; signal and wifi drop sharply outside. Plan heavy work days before or after this section (Galway is the fix).`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06e-galway.md`: `- **Workation:** Best stop on the WAW for remote work. Coffeewerk + Press (Kirwan's Lane) is the standout café. Multiple coworking spaces if you need a full desk setup. Plan your heaviest meeting days here.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06f-clare.md`: `- **Workation:** Use Ennis for serious work days — good town wifi and cafés. Doolin is rural; treat it as offline.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`06g-kerry.md`: `- **Workation:** Good in Killarney (town cafés, hotel wifi). Dingle has 2–3 decent spots. Fine for regular remote work days.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 5: `.ai-context.md` — update trip description**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find: `**Wild Atlantic Way** — cycling/driving north to south (Donegal → Kerry), ~3 weeks`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace with: `**Wild Atlantic Way** — driving north to south (Donegal → Kerry), ~3 weeks. Day hikes and optional bike rental at stops; not a cycling tour.`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] **Step 6: `README.md` — add new files to intro section**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the closing `---` of the Confirmed Dates section and before `## Location Files`, add:
|
||||||
|

||||||

**Gaps found and fixed:**
|
||||||
|
- Sky Road in `06d-connemara.md` needed a `⭐` too (added in Task 5 Step 5 since it's an unmissable scenic drive, even though it's not in the top 15 HIGHLIGHTS list — left it out of HIGHLIGHTS to keep the list at 15, but marked it as a standout in the file itself)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Placeholder scan:** None found.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Consistency check:** All file paths use `locations/` prefix. All ⭐ markers use the same format. Workation line format is consistent across all 7 WAW files.
