# Specification Quality Checklist: Platform Localization v1 (DE/EN)

**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to implementation planning  
**Created**: 2026-04-28  
**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md)

## Content Quality

- [x] Business value and operator outcomes stay explicit
- [x] Locale precedence, persistence ownership, and invariance boundaries are explicit
- [x] Runtime-governance sections are present for an implementation-ready spec package
- [x] All mandatory sections completed

## Requirement Completeness

- [x] No `[NEEDS CLARIFICATION]` markers remain
- [x] Requirements are testable and unambiguous
- [x] Success criteria are measurable
- [x] Acceptance scenarios are defined for the primary user journeys
- [x] Edge cases are identified
- [x] Scope is clearly bounded to platform runtime localization, not website or broad documentation translation
- [x] Dependencies and assumptions are identified

## Feature Readiness

- [x] The first slice is small enough for a bounded implementation loop
- [x] The plan identifies the concrete repo surfaces likely to change
- [x] The tasks are ordered, testable, and grouped by user story
- [x] No unresolved product question blocks safe implementation of the first slice; system-panel scope is explicitly limited to explicit override plus system default in v1

## Governance Readiness

- [x] New persistence is justified and remains minimal
- [x] Provider-boundary handling and glossary reuse are explicit
- [x] Existing RBAC and tenant/workspace isolation remain authoritative
- [x] Operator-facing surface changes include the required UI contract sections
- [x] Livewire v4 compliance, unchanged provider registration location, unchanged global-search semantics, no destructive-action additions, and unchanged asset strategy are explicit in the package
- [x] Export, audit, raw payload, and machine-readable invariance is explicit

## UI / Surface Review Gate

- [x] Applicability is explicit: this feature changes operator-facing shell, governance, monitoring, and customer-safe viewer surfaces, so a full review gate applies
- [x] Spec, plan, and tasks carry forward the same mixed native/custom classification, shared-family relevance, state-layer ownership, and no-current-exception posture
- [x] The slice stays native/shared-primitives first: one shared context bar, one workspace settings path, one locale resolver, and no second shell or page-local locale system
- [x] Repository signal handling is explicit as `review-mandatory`, with no current exception path or hidden parallel UX language
- [x] Required test-profile depth is explicit: `global-context-shell`, `standard-native-filament`, and `shared-detail-family`, with focused proof commands only
- [x] Audience-aware disclosure remains intact: localization changes decision-first UI copy, while support/raw payloads and machine-readable artifacts remain hidden or invariant

## Review Outcome

- [x] Review outcome class chosen: `acceptable-special-case`
- [x] Workflow outcome chosen: `keep`
- [x] Final note location is explicit: any implementation-era translation exceptions are recorded in the active feature close-out task `T022`; the prep package itself needs no current exception note

## Notes

- This checklist completes the implementation-ready package alongside `spec.md`, `plan.md`, `research.md`, `data-model.md`, `quickstart.md`, `contracts/`, and `tasks.md`.
- The active slice stays bounded to one locale foundation, two supported locales, one workspace-bound personal preference path, one workspace default path, system-panel explicit-override support only, and first-wave translation coverage for the most visible runtime surfaces.
- Current review outcome is `acceptable-special-case / keep` because the package is intentionally broad across surfaces but remains bounded to one shared locale foundation and one first-wave translation inventory.
- Implementation close-out on 2026-04-28 completed the targeted fast-feedback/confidence Pest lanes, dirty Pint, browser smoke, and post-implementation analysis/fix loop. Any remaining English text is documented as broader pre-existing localization debt outside the bounded first-wave slice, not as an open blocker for this spec.
