bmad-validate-prd

To validate a PRD against BMAD standards, provide the PRD file path to initiate the validation workflow. The system performs format detection, density, measurability, and traceability checks to produce a structured validation report.

PRD traceability and density validation checks verify that requirements are measurable and properly linked throughout the document. This process flags structural gaps and missing compliance elements before development begins.

Yes, you can use this validation workflow for non-standard PRD formats. The system supports advanced workflows for non-standard formats and performs optional parity analyses to ensure comprehensive compliance reporting.

The BMAD PRD validation report includes actionable improvements, identified compliance gaps, and recommended next steps. It structures findings based on domain and project-type validation to guide immediate document revisions.

You should run a PRD compliance check before development begins to catch structural gaps early. Validating document density, measurability, and traceability ensures requirements meet BMAD standards and prevents downstream rework.
