# Specification Quality Checklist: Spec 346 - Governance Inbox Final Operator Workflow

**Purpose**: Validate Spec 346 preparation completeness before implementation.  
**Created**: 2026-06-02  
**Feature**: `specs/346-governance-inbox-final-operator-workflow/spec.md`

## Candidate Selection Gate

- [x] CHK001 The selected candidate is directly provided by the user and also matches the Spec 345 next-spec recommendation.
- [x] CHK002 The candidate aligns with current roadmap and candidate truth: a narrow follow-up over the existing governance inbox runtime, not a greenfield governance system.
- [x] CHK003 No existing `specs/346-*` package or `346-*` branch existed before this prep.
- [x] CHK004 Related specs were checked for completed-spec signals and are treated as context only: 250, 257, 265, 306, 307, 308, 327, 342, 343, 344, and 345.
- [x] CHK005 Close alternatives are deferred rather than hidden scope: provider readiness, artifact lifecycle, localization/copy hardening, and PSA handoff.
- [x] CHK006 Scope is narrowed to one existing strategic surface (`/admin/governance/inbox`) plus its truthful linked destinations.

## Content Quality

- [x] CHK007 `spec.md` defines problem, user value, goals, functional requirements, non-functional requirements, non-goals, acceptance criteria, assumptions, risks, and open questions.
- [x] CHK008 `plan.md` lists the likely affected repo surfaces and preserves repo-truth-first execution.
- [x] CHK009 `tasks.md` is ordered into small phases with explicit repo-truth, test, browser, UI-audit, and validation tasks.
- [x] CHK010 No unresolved template placeholders remain in `spec.md`, `plan.md`, or `tasks.md`.

## Constitution And Scope

- [x] CHK011 Proportionality review is present and explicitly rejects new persistence, new workflow engines, and new global abstractions.
- [x] CHK012 Workspace/environment isolation boundaries and deny-as-not-found posture are preserved.
- [x] CHK013 UI Surface Impact and UI/Productization Coverage are completed for the existing strategic Governance Inbox surface.
- [x] CHK014 Filament v5 / Livewire v4 posture, panel provider location, global-search posture, destructive-action rules, asset strategy, and testing plan are explicit.

## Plan Quality

- [x] CHK015 Plan sequencing is repo truth gate -> tests first -> lane contract -> page productization -> links/scope/safety -> UI audit -> browser smoke -> validation.
- [x] CHK016 Deployment/ops impact is explicit and currently expects no env, migration, queue, scheduler, storage, or asset changes.
- [x] CHK017 No Graph/provider calls during UI render are enforced by plan constraints.

## Task Quality

- [x] CHK018 Tasks include concrete repo surfaces and avoid inventing new runtime paths beyond the existing Governance Inbox and truthful linked surfaces.
- [x] CHK019 Tasks include focused Feature coverage and one bounded Browser smoke for the strategic operator surface.
- [x] CHK020 Tasks require the repo-truth map, lane-classification artifact, and page-report update instead of speculative framework work.
- [x] CHK021 Tasks explicitly forbid new persistence/framework scope and rewriting completed specs.

## Spec Readiness Gate

- [x] CHK022 `spec.md`, `plan.md`, `tasks.md`, and this checklist exist.
- [x] CHK023 Open questions do not block safe implementation; they are repo-truth refinement questions for the implementation loop.
- [x] CHK024 Scope is bounded enough for a later implementation loop.
- [x] CHK025 Result: ready for implementation loop.
