Spec Structure
- Requirement summary (problem + goals + scope)
- Existing code analysis
- Technical solution (architecture + data model + API + core logic)
- Risks and dependencies
- Work breakdown
- Testing strategy
- Open questions
Verification
- Solution covers all requirement points
- Architecture diagrams use Mermaid
- Risks have mitigation strategies
- Work can be broken into trackable items
