# Specification Quality Checklist: Extract Matrix Platform Modules as Public Template

**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning
**Created**: 2025-10-11
**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md)

## Content Quality

- [x] No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
- [x] Focused on user value and business needs
- [x] Written for non-technical stakeholders
- [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] Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
- [x] All acceptance scenarios are defined
- [x] Edge cases are identified
- [x] Scope is clearly bounded
- [x] Dependencies and assumptions identified

## Feature Readiness

- [x] All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
- [x] User scenarios cover primary flows
- [x] Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
- [x] No implementation details leak into specification

## Notes

All items pass validation. The specification is comprehensive and ready for planning phase.

**Validation Details**:

- **Content Quality**: Specification focuses on what needs to be extracted and published (modules, documentation, sanitization) without specifying how to implement the extraction process. Written at appropriate abstraction level for stakeholders.

- **Requirements**: All 29 functional requirements are testable (e.g., FR-002 "All personal domains MUST be replaced" can be verified by searching files, FR-015 "MUST pass nix flake check" can be verified by running the command).

- **Success Criteria**: All 10 success criteria are measurable and technology-agnostic:
  - SC-001: Time-based (30 minutes)
  - SC-002-003: Binary pass/fail (build success, zero findings)
  - SC-004-005: Count-based (lines of code/docs)
  - SC-006: Binary (CI runs successfully)
  - SC-007-008: Community metrics (stars, issues/PRs)
  - SC-009-010: Incident count and frequency

- **User Scenarios**: Five prioritized user stories cover the complete lifecycle from publication (P1) through deployment (P1), contribution (P2), maintenance (P2), and learning (P3). Each has independent test criteria and clear acceptance scenarios.

- **Edge Cases**: Six edge cases identified covering deployment prerequisites, platform compatibility, architecture support, maintenance concerns, and dependency management.

- **Scope**: Clear boundaries defined in "Out of Scope" section (13 items) distinguishing what will and won't be included in v1.0.

- **Dependencies & Assumptions**: 8 dependencies and 11 assumptions documented, covering technical requirements (NixOS packages, tools) and user expectations (familiarity, infrastructure access).

- **No Clarifications Needed**: RFC resolved all major decisions through multi-model consensus, so no [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers required.
