To document requirements for a change proposal, you generate delta specifications that encode added, modified, and removed requirements. This structured approach translates proposals into clear requirements and scenarios, enabling consistent change tracking across your engineering domains.

A delta specification is a structured artifact that translates a change proposal into added, modified, and removed requirements. It enables engineering teams to track changes with clarity and consistency by segmenting updates into specific domains rather than rewriting entire specifications.

You group requirements by applying domain segmentation to the change proposal, which allows you to reuse existing specs when available. This process produces a structured artifact plan containing per-domain content and a summary of the changes made.

You need to generate a full spec instead of a delta spec when you are introducing a completely new domain. This approach ensures you establish a complete baseline of requirements, whereas delta specs are reserved for modifying existing domains with added, changed, or removed requirements.

You produce a structured artifact plan by conforming to configured persistence conventions while generating the delta structure. The resulting plan includes per-domain content and a comprehensive summary of all added, modified, and removed requirements.
