To detail functional design specifications, you define domain entities, business rules, data flows, and error handling scenarios for specific units. This bridges high-level architecture and code generation by capturing all business logic.

Documenting business logic and domain entities requires specifying how rules like inventory updates or discount applications transition. Capturing these functional specifications ensures all business logic is defined before coding begins.

Designing unit specifications with varying complexity uses conditional execution to adapt depth. You choose Minimal, Standard, or Comprehensive modes to match the functional design depth required for the software unit.

Yes, you can skip functional design for simple units using the Skip execution mode. The workflow supports conditional execution, allowing you to bypass detailed specification when complexity does not require it.

You need to define data flows and error handling scenarios during the construction phase of the AI-DLC workflow. This ensures detailed functional specifications capture all business rules before low-level code generation.
