Specification Quality Checklist: Derive the mission-state audit's CI trigger list

Purpose: Validate specification completeness and quality before planning Created: 2026-10-12 Mission: spec.md

Content Quality

  • ✅ No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs) — stays at behaviour/outcome level
  • ✅ Focused on maintainer value and the drift/defect class being closed
  • ✅ Written for the maintainer/automation audience
  • ✅ All mandatory sections completed

Requirement Completeness

  • ✅ No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain (complete written brief; none deferred)
  • ✅ Requirements are testable and unambiguous
  • ✅ Requirement types are separated (Functional / Non-Functional / Constraints)
  • ✅ IDs are unique across FR/NFR/C/SC and match the grammar
  • ✅ All requirement rows include a non-empty Status value
  • ✅ Non-functional requirements include measurable thresholds (<2s; identical set on repeat)
  • ✅ Every FR row and success criterion carries a delivery label and no-op mark
  • ✅ Success criteria are measurable
  • ✅ Success criteria are technology-agnostic (outcome-level: RED/GREEN, mirror removed, suites pass)
  • ✅ All acceptance scenarios are defined
  • ✅ Edge cases identified (vacuous capture, order-sensitivity, abnormal fixture path)
  • ✅ Scope is clearly bounded (add test + remove hand copy; no runtime change; no router edit)
  • ✅ Dependencies and assumptions identified (grounding note; 33/33 covered)

Mission Readiness

  • ✅ All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
  • ✅ User scenarios cover primary flows (drift-catch; unification)
  • ✅ Mission meets measurable outcomes in Success Criteria
  • ✅ No implementation details leak into specification

Notes

corpus the audit executes 33 src/ modules, all already matched by the existing mission_state globs — so no ci-router.yml edit is required (C-002).

  • Grounding: research/code-grounding.md (committed first). Over the real 604-mission
