Refining discovery artefacts involves identifying gaps and ambiguities in current plans and epics, then applying a structured refinement loop to update artefacts in place while logging rationale for governance compliance.

Updating epics and stories requires identifying missing acceptance criteria within your discovery artefacts and applying targeted feedback to specific fields, preserving context while producing a refined scope plan for review.

Yes, you can realign discovery plans by feeding current artefacts and new feedback into a structured refinement loop that updates epics and stories in place and logs the rationale for all changes to maintain traceability.

Identifying gaps and contradictions in discovery artefacts requires iteratively reviewing plans, epics, and stories for missing clarity or conflicting information, then generating a refined plan that ensures completeness and alignment with stakeholder intent.

Refining scope artefacts preserves context by applying feedback to targeted fields without losing surrounding information, and maintains traceability by logging the rationale for every change to ensure governance compliance.

You should avoid using an automated refinement loop when discovery artefacts lack initial structure or when feedback is too vague to map to targeted fields, as the process relies on existing plans, epics, and stories to update in place.
