Validating a PRD against BMAD standards checks structural formatting, requirement measurability, traceability, and SMART quality. It returns a concise report highlighting missing sections, compliance gaps, and implementation leakage before design begins.

BMAD standard compliance for product requirements ensures documents maintain proper structure, information density, and traceability. It checks that requirements are measurable, complete, and free of implementation leakage before architecture work begins.

Checking PRD traceability and completeness gaps requires parsing document sections and scoring requirements against SMART criteria. This validation identifies missing scope, domain compliance issues, and formatting inconsistencies for product managers to fix.

PRD validation works for non-standard and variant formatting by detecting the document structure first. It then applies conditional checks for domain and project-type context to evaluate quality and completeness regardless of the initial format.

Automated SMART requirement checks are limited to detecting information density, measurability, and implementation leakage within the text. They rely on existing domain and project-type context inputs, and cannot infer missing business logic.
