| 1 | +# Specification Quality Checklist: MCP Security Gateway Hardening |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning |
| 4 | +**Created**: 2026-05-23 |
| 5 | +**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md) |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## Content Quality |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +- [x] No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs) |
| 10 | + - Note: file:line pointers appear in a clearly-labelled "Context" section as gap-analysis grounding for an umbrella eng spec; FRs and success criteria themselves stay behavioural/technology-agnostic. |
| 11 | +- [x] Focused on user value and business needs |
| 12 | +- [x] Written for non-technical stakeholders (user stories framed as operator outcomes) |
| 13 | +- [x] All mandatory sections completed |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +## Requirement Completeness |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +- [x] No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain (informed assumptions documented in Assumptions) |
| 18 | +- [x] Requirements are testable and unambiguous (each FR has a verifiable behaviour; each story has an Independent Test) |
| 19 | +- [x] Success criteria are measurable (SC-001…SC-008, mostly 100%/detection-rate framed) |
| 20 | +- [x] Success criteria are technology-agnostic |
| 21 | +- [x] All acceptance scenarios are defined (Given/When/Then per track) |
| 22 | +- [x] Edge cases are identified (per-track, incl. the ContextForge #4042 trap and async-vs-hash-chain) |
| 23 | +- [x] Scope is clearly bounded (5 tracks + Non-Goals + "docs restructure is a separate spec") |
| 24 | +- [x] Dependencies and assumptions identified (Context section maps each track to existing Spec; Assumptions section) |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +## Feature Readiness |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +- [x] All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria |
| 29 | +- [x] User scenarios cover primary flows (one prioritised story per track A–E) |
| 30 | +- [x] Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria |
| 31 | +- [x] No implementation details leak into the requirements/success sections |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +## Notes |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +- This is an **umbrella spec**; each track should get its own `/speckit.plan` (and `/speckit.tasks`) when implementation starts. Recommend running `/speckit.plan` per track (A first) rather than for the whole umbrella at once. |
| 36 | +- Validation passed on first iteration; no [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers. |
