backend-derivation

Deriving backend requirements from workflow and API contract artifacts involves processing validated inputs like ScreenFlowSpec and MockDataset to generate DataRequirementSpec and BackendRequirementSpec documents. This ensures backend elements trace directly to concrete screen actions and workflow steps, preventing premature domain modeling and over-engineering.

Backend design specifications for service boundaries and persistence needs require a BackendRequirementSpec and DataRequirementSpec. These documents outline required fields, joins, transforms, validation rules, and raw source systems, ensuring every backend element is aligned with proven screen actions and workflow steps.

Generating data requirement specs with source systems, joins, and validation rules requires processing validated workflow artifacts like ScreenSpec and ApiContract. The derivation produces a DataRequirementSpec that captures necessary field transforms and persistence needs tied directly to concrete workflow steps.

Translating validated workflow artifacts into backend specifications is needed when moving from frontend design to backend implementation. It ensures that required fields, joins, transforms, and service boundaries are directly tied to proven screen actions, avoiding over-engineering and unvalidated domain modeling.

Validated app slices and mock datasets can be used to produce backend requirement specs by processing them alongside WorkflowBrief and ApiContract inputs. This derivation generates DataRequirementSpec and BackendRequirementSpec outputs, identifying required transforms, validation rules, and persistence needs.

Backend derivation avoids premature domain modeling during system design by including only backend elements that can be traced back to a concrete workflow need. By processing validated contract artifacts, it ensures service boundaries and persistence needs are directly tied to proven screen actions.
