SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Verifies that work across phases meets defined criteria by validating acceptance criteria and the definition of done.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Checks that all criteria are present and explicitly verified
  • Collects evidence of verification and outputs a clear readiness status
  • Supports code review readiness checks before milestones

Quick Start

Apply this skill after completing a phase to verify all criteria and confirm readiness for milestone review.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify acceptance criteria and definition of done before a milestone review?

To verify acceptance criteria and definition of done before a milestone review, load your phase requirements, enumerate each criterion, evaluate them with evidence, and output a clear readiness status such as READY or NEEDS_WORK to prevent unfinished work from advancing.

What is the best way to check code review readiness for incomplete phase tasks?

Checking code review readiness involves identifying and verifying that phase criteria are satisfied across post-phase tasks. The process evaluates each acceptance criterion with concrete evidence to ensure quality and outputs a clear status indicating whether the work is READY or NEEDS_WORK.

How does phase management verification prevent unfinished work from advancing?

Phase management verification prevents unfinished work from advancing by loading phase requirements and enumerating acceptance criteria. It evaluates each criterion with evidence and outputs a clear status, ensuring only fully verified work passes milestone reviews and code reviews.

Can I use automated quality assurance to collect evidence for definition of done?

Yes, you can use quality assurance to collect evidence for the definition of done. The process evaluates each acceptance criterion explicitly, gathers verification evidence, and outputs a clear readiness status to confirm all phase criteria are satisfied before milestones.

When do I need to verify work quality across post-phase tasks?

You need to verify work quality across post-phase tasks immediately after completing a phase and before milestone reviews. This ensures all acceptance criteria and definition of done requirements are satisfied with evidence, preventing unfinished work from advancing.

Why does my milestone review fail without explicit acceptance criteria verification?

Milestone reviews fail without explicit acceptance criteria verification because phase requirements are not confirmed with evidence. Verifying each criterion prevents unfinished work from advancing and outputs a clear NEEDS_WORK status when quality readiness is unmet.
