SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents MVP scope creep by evaluating feature requests against defined MVP goals, helping teams stay focused on learning objectives.

Core Features & Use Cases

Feature evaluation: Systematically assess proposed features against MVP objectives and decide if they should be INCLUDED or DEFERRED.
Deferred features tagging: Mark non-essential ideas for later phases while preserving delivery speed.
Integration with planning flow: Works alongside project-vision-normalizer and spec-driven planning to streamline decision-making during MVP definition and feature discussions.

Quick Start

Use the MVP scope guard during MVP definition to evaluate new feature requests, label them as INCLUDE or DEFER, and feed the decisions back into the planning flow.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent MVP scope creep during feature discussions?▼

To prevent MVP scope creep, evaluate proposed features against defined MVP goals using a Scope Decision Matrix. This process systematically determines whether a feature request should be INCLUDED or DEFERRED to maintain focus on learning objectives.

What is the best way to evaluate feature requests for an MVP?▼

The best way to evaluate feature requests for an MVP is to assess them against defined MVP objectives during planning reviews. Applying a Scope Decision Matrix helps decide whether to INCLUDE or DEFER features and label non-essential ideas for later phases.

How do I tag deferred features during project planning?▼

To tag deferred features during project planning, apply a tagging workflow that marks non-essential ideas for later phases. This preserves delivery speed by keeping the current MVP scope focused while retaining valuable ideas for future development.

Can I integrate MVP feature evaluation with spec-driven planning?▼

Yes, you can integrate MVP feature evaluation with spec-driven planning. The Scope Decision Matrix workflow integrates with project-vision-normalizer to guide the spec-driven planning stage and streamline decision-making during MVP definition.

When should I defer a feature request instead of including it in the MVP?▼

You should defer a feature request when it does not align with the defined MVP goals and learning objectives. Evaluating the request against the Scope Decision Matrix identifies non-essential features to tag for later phases to preserve delivery speed.
