Specification Quality Checklist: Planning Pipeline Integrity and Runtime Reliability
Purpose: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning Created: 2026-04-07 Feature: spec.md
Content Quality
- ✅ No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
- ✅ Focused on user value and business needs
- ✅ Written for non-technical stakeholders
- ✅ All mandatory sections completed
Requirement Completeness
- ✅ No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
- ✅ Requirements are testable and unambiguous
- ✅ Requirement types are separated (Functional / Non-Functional / Constraints)
- ✅ IDs are unique across FR-###, NFR-###, and C-### entries
- ✅ All requirement rows include a non-empty Status value
- ✅ Non-functional requirements include measurable thresholds
- ✅ Success criteria are measurable
- ✅ Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
- ✅ All acceptance scenarios are defined
- ✅ Edge cases are identified
- ✅ Scope is clearly bounded
- ✅ Dependencies and assumptions identified
Feature Readiness
- ✅ All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
- ✅ User scenarios cover primary flows
- ✅ Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
- ✅ No implementation details leak into specification
Notes
All items pass. Specification is ready for /spec-kitty.plan.
Key decisions recorded in Assumptions:
- Three candidate approaches for #524 are left to planning (all satisfy the behavioral outcome)
- JSON Schema location for
wps.yamlfixed atsrc/specify_cli/schemas/wps.schema.json(FR-005) - Legacy prose parser retained, not deleted (FR-012)
- FR-008/FR-009 tension resolved: code (
finalize-tasks) generatestasks.md, LLM produceswps.yamlonly (FR-009, FR-011) - Downstream consumers (dashboard, doctor, kanban) remain on WP frontmatter path; direct wps.yaml reads are out of scope
- Slug validator has a single call site in
