Specification Quality Checklist: Finding Outcome Taxonomy & Verification Semantics
Purpose: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning
Created: 2026-04-22
Feature: spec.md
Content Quality
- No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
- Focused on user value and business needs
- Written for non-technical stakeholders
- All mandatory sections completed
Requirement Completeness
- No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
- Requirements are testable and unambiguous
- Success criteria are measurable
- Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
- All acceptance scenarios are defined
- Edge cases are identified
- Scope is clearly bounded
- Dependencies and assumptions identified
Feature Readiness
- All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
- User scenarios cover primary flows
- Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
- No implementation details leak into specification
Notes
- Validated in one pass. No open clarification markers remain.
- The spec keeps the existing findings lifecycle and scopes the change to one bounded outcome taxonomy plus verification semantics; no new queue, entity, or status family is introduced.
- Repo-required constitution and surface-guardrail references are treated as product governance constraints, not implementation design leakage.
