specification-validation

Specification validation assesses PRDs, SDDs, and PLANs for completeness, consistency, and correctness through cross-document alignment and traceability checks. It applies a lightweight, advisory approach across modes A-D to reduce ambiguity and rework.

Cross-document traceability tracks requirements from specifications to implementations to report deviations. It enforces basic content presence and cross-reference validation across PRDs, SDDs, and PLANs to ensure project artifacts remain aligned.

Mode A specification validation assesses PRD and SDD quality by checking cross-document alignment, automated content presence, and ADR status. This ensures your design decisions and requirements are structurally consistent across artifacts.

Yes, specification validation requires no external tooling beyond local file access. Mode C comparison validation traces requirements from specs to implementations and reports deviations using a lightweight, advisory approach with optional artifacts.

Mode D understanding validation evaluates the correctness of your approach or design decisions. It provides advisory readiness checks across project artifacts to ensure your technical decisions align with specification requirements.

The lightweight, advisory approach supports optional artifacts and local file access but does not enforce rigid compliance. It focuses on proposing improvements for completeness, consistency, and correctness rather than automatically fixing specification deviations.
