To validate a PRD for completeness, you need to review its feature descriptions, acceptance criteria, test requirements, and structural elements against best practices. This ensures clarity and feasibility before coding begins.

PRD validation is a pre-flight check that identifies issues in completeness, clarity, and structure before development starts. It catches vague requirements and missing error scenarios early to prevent costly rework later.

PRD validation requires a structured markdown format with specific sections and criteria for effective evaluation. It specifically analyzes a file named prd.md to ensure it is well-defined and actionable.

The best way to catch missing error scenarios in product requirements is to run a validation checklist focused on early issue detection. This process identifies vague requirements, missing scenarios, and oversized features.

PRD validation fails on feature sizing and dependency ordering when the document lacks comprehensive checklist coverage. It evaluates feature completeness, test coverage, and RLM optimization to ensure proper structural elements.

You need to run a PRD validation check before initiating a complex feature build. Use it to ensure the prd.md is well-defined, actionable, and adheres to best practices, saving significant iteration time.
