prd-validate

To check a PRD for missing sections and formatting errors, run a lightweight linting tool that performs a structural consistency check, verifying section presence, metadata completeness, and table integrity to identify issues in a read-only report.

PRD structural validation is a read-only linting process that checks requirement formatting and placeholder markers in your document. You need it after drafting a new feature PRD to identify critical structural issues before sharing it for review.

You can validate requirement formatting and metadata completeness by running an automated lint check on your PRD file. The process scans the document and outputs a terminal report identifying specific structural and formatting issues without modifying the original file.

The best way to quickly check for placeholder markers in documentation is to use a fast linting process. This approach catches incomplete metadata and placeholder text significantly faster than a full analysis, providing a terminal report of specific issues.

PRD linting operates as a read-only terminal report and does not modify your original document files. It only scans the file to identify specific structural issues like table integrity problems and incorrect formatting without altering the source content.
