FAQPage Schema
How do I validate that a feature aligns with project goals and constraints?

Feature alignment validation checks new work against PROJECT.md goals, scope, and architectural constraints through structured pattern-based checks. This ensures ongoing compliance and prevents scope creep or architectural violations during development.

When should I verify a feature against PROJECT.md before implementation?

Verify alignment during feature validation and scope assessment phases, before implementation begins. Early validation against PROJECT.md goals and constraints prevents rework and keeps the feature within project boundaries.

What does PROJECT.md alignment include?

Alignment covers GOALS, SCOPE, CONSTRAINTS, and ARCHITECTURE sections in PROJECT.md. The validation enforces semantic alignment with project structure and checks adherence to architectural constraints through cross-reference guidance.

Can I use this for architectural constraint checks?

Yes, architectural constraint checks are a core use case. The Skill validates features against PROJECT.md architectural constraints and provides guidance to maintain consistency across the project.

How does this integrate with other validation approaches?

Project alignment validation cross-references with project-alignment-validation for detailed checks, enabling layered validation strategies. Use it alongside related skills for comprehensive feature and scope assessment.
