bmad-check-implementation-readiness

To check implementation readiness, this skill automates the orchestration and validation of planning artifacts to ensure complete consistency and traceability before coding begins.

Validating PRD and UX spec alignment before a major release requires a stepwise validation workflow that surfaces gaps and misalignments, providing actionable remediation guidance to align artifacts prior to development.

State tracking for sequential workflow validation uses frontmatter to enforce a strict stepwise process, maintaining auditability and ensuring mandatory validation is completed before moving to the next phase.

Yes, this readiness validation workflow applies to product teams preparing for new features and major releases, ensuring traceability and gap remediation across PRD, Architecture, Epics, and UX specs.

Implementation readiness validation requires a strict stepwise workflow because it enforces mandatory validation and state tracking to systematically surface issues and gaps before any coding begins.

Validating planning artifacts solves the problem of incomplete PRD, Architecture, Epics, and UX specs, ensuring no gaps exist before starting implementation and reducing downstream development risks.
