Feature Specification: [FEATURE NAME]

Feature Branch: [###-feature-name]
Created: [DATE]
Status: Draft
Input: User description: "$ARGUMENTS"

User Scenarios & Testing (mandatory)

User Story 1 - [Brief Title] (Priority: P1)

[Describe this user journey in plain language]

Why this priority: [Explain the value and why it has this priority level]

Independent Test: [Describe how this can be tested independently - e.g., "Can be fully tested by [specific action] and delivers [specific value]"]

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given [initial state], When [action], Then [expected outcome]
  2. Given [initial state], When [action], Then [expected outcome]

User Story 2 - [Brief Title] (Priority: P2)

[Describe this user journey in plain language]

Why this priority: [Explain the value and why it has this priority level]

Independent Test: [Describe how this can be tested independently]

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given [initial state], When [action], Then [expected outcome]

User Story 3 - [Brief Title] (Priority: P3)

[Describe this user journey in plain language]

Why this priority: [Explain the value and why it has this priority level]

Independent Test: [Describe how this can be tested independently]

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given [initial state], When [action], Then [expected outcome]

[Add more user stories as needed, each with an assigned priority]

Edge Cases

  • What happens when [boundary condition]?
  • How does system handle [error scenario]?

Requirements (mandatory)

Constitution alignment (required): If this feature introduces any Microsoft Graph calls, any write/change behavior, or any long-running/queued/scheduled work, the spec MUST describe contract registry updates, safety gates (preview/confirmation/audit), tenant isolation, run observability (OperationRun type/identity/visibility), and tests. If security-relevant DB-only actions intentionally skip OperationRun, the spec MUST describe AuditLog entries.

Constitution alignment (BADGE-001): If this feature changes status-like badges (status/outcome/severity/risk/availability/boolean), the spec MUST describe how badge semantics stay centralized (no ad-hoc mappings) and which tests cover any new/changed values.

Functional Requirements

  • FR-001: System MUST [specific capability, e.g., "allow users to create accounts"]
  • FR-002: System MUST [specific capability, e.g., "validate email addresses"]
  • FR-003: Users MUST be able to [key interaction, e.g., "reset their password"]
  • FR-004: System MUST [data requirement, e.g., "persist user preferences"]
  • FR-005: System MUST [behavior, e.g., "log all security events"]

Example of marking unclear requirements:

  • FR-006: System MUST authenticate users via [NEEDS CLARIFICATION: auth method not specified - email/password, SSO, OAuth?]
  • FR-007: System MUST retain user data for [NEEDS CLARIFICATION: retention period not specified]

Key Entities (include if feature involves data)

  • [Entity 1]: [What it represents, key attributes without implementation]
  • [Entity 2]: [What it represents, relationships to other entities]

Success Criteria (mandatory)

Measurable Outcomes

  • SC-001: [Measurable metric, e.g., "Users can complete account creation in under 2 minutes"]
  • SC-002: [Measurable metric, e.g., "System handles 1000 concurrent users without degradation"]
  • SC-003: [User satisfaction metric, e.g., "90% of users successfully complete primary task on first attempt"]
  • SC-004: [Business metric, e.g., "Reduce support tickets related to [X] by 50%"]
