You can validate feature specs against a PRD by submitting a single SPEC.md file or a specs directory to generate a structured read-only validation report. The workflow checks PRD scope alignment, persona consistency, and metric traceability.

Yes, the validation workflow accepts a single SPEC.md, an entire specs directory, or all specs under a target path. It processes varied validation targets to produce a comprehensive structured report covering all submitted files.

No, the validation workflow enforces strictly read-only constraints and generates a structured report without modifying any source files. Your original SPEC.md files remain completely untouched during the PRD alignment review process.

PRD traceability validation checks for mandated PRD references, scope alignment, persona consistency, and metric alignment within feature specs. It identifies out-of-scope work and reports any misalignment between product intent and technical specifications.

The best way to ensure alignment is a read-only validation workflow that enforces PRD traceability and reports misalignment in a structured format. It confirms persona alignment and metric consistency while preventing drift between product intent and specs.
