# PR #826 Validation Findings
|
|
|
|
**Date:** 2025-01-28
|
|
**Branch:** pr-826-review
|
|
**File:** high-level-product-plan.md
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
The file from PR #826 has been successfully applied to the pr-826-review branch and validated. While the content is technically sound, there are **quality issues** and **convention violations** that need to be addressed before merging.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Validation Results
|
|
|
|
### ✅ Syntax Validation
|
|
|
|
- **Markdown Structure:** VALID
|
|
- All headings properly formatted (`#`, `##`, `###`)
|
|
- Lists use consistent formatting (numbered and bulleted)
|
|
- No broken syntax detected
|
|
|
|
### ❌ Code Style Issues
|
|
|
|
- **Prettier Check:** FAILED
|
|
- Status: `[warn] high-level-product-plan.md`
|
|
- Issue: **148 trailing whitespace errors**
|
|
- Impact: Violates project code style standards
|
|
- Fix: `npx prettier --write "high-level-product-plan.md"`
|
|
|
|
### ❌ File Placement
|
|
|
|
- **Current Location:** Repository root (`/high-level-product-plan.md`)
|
|
- **Convention Violation:** Root directory restricted to:
|
|
- `README.md`
|
|
- `CHANGELOG.md`
|
|
- `CONTRIBUTING.md`
|
|
- `LICENSE`
|
|
- `package.json`
|
|
- Configuration files (`*.config.mjs`, `*.yaml`)
|
|
- **Expected Location:** `docs/planning/product-planning-checklist.md`
|
|
- Rationale: All documentation lives in `docs/` with category subdirectories
|
|
- Pattern: `docs/ide-info/`, `docs/installers-bundlers/`
|
|
- New category needed: `docs/planning/` (does not currently exist)
|
|
|
|
### ⚠️ BMAD Integration
|
|
|
|
- **Current State:** ZERO BMAD-specific references
|
|
- **Content Type:** Generic product planning checklist
|
|
- **Overlap:** Significant overlap with existing BMAD workflows:
|
|
- Product Brief workflow (`src/modules/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/product-brief/`)
|
|
- Research workflow (`src/modules/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/research/`)
|
|
- PRD workflow (`src/modules/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/prd/`)
|
|
- Tech Spec workflow (`src/modules/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/`)
|
|

## Quality Issues
|
|
|
|
### Trailing Whitespace (148 occurrences)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.patch/826/PR-826.patch:30: trailing whitespace.
|
|
.patch/826/PR-826.patch:31: trailing whitespace.
|
|
.patch/826/PR-826.patch:32: trailing whitespace.
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Lines Affected:** Throughout the entire 147-line document
|
|
|
|
**Why This Matters:**
|
|
|
|
- Violates project Prettier configuration
|
|
- Adds noise to git diffs
|
|
- Fails CI checks (`npm run format:check`)
|
|
|
|
**Fix Required:** Run `npx prettier --write` on the file
|
|
|

|
## Convention Violations
|
|
|
|
### Root Directory Placement
|
|
|
|
**BMAD Documentation Structure:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/ # Root - Config files only
|
|
├── README.md ✅ Allowed
|
|
├── CHANGELOG.md ✅ Allowed
|
|
├── CONTRIBUTING.md ✅ Allowed
|
|
├── package.json ✅ Allowed
|
|
└── docs/ # All documentation
|
|
├── ide-info/ # IDE-specific guides (15 files)
|
|
├── installers-bundlers/ # Technical guides (3 files)
|
|
└── *.md # General guides (4 files)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Violation:** `high-level-product-plan.md` placed at root instead of `docs/`
|
|
|
|
**Precedent:** ALL 46 documentation files live in `docs/` with 100% consistency
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:** Create `docs/planning/` category and relocate to:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docs/planning/product-planning-checklist.md
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Integration Gaps
|
|
|
|
### BMAD-Specific Content Missing
|
|
|
|
The document is a **generic planning checklist** with no BMAD integration. See **integration-assessment.md** for detailed mapping, but key gaps:
|
|
|
|
1. **Section 1 (Vision/Objectives):** Could reference `@product-brief` workflow
|
|
2. **Section 2 (Target Audience):** Could reference `@research` workflow
|
|
3. **Section 3 (Feature Planning):** Could reference `@prd` and `@tech-spec` workflows
|
|
4. **Section 4 (Technical Architecture):** Could reference `@architecture` workflow
|
|
5. **Section 5 (Resources/Timeline):** Could reference `@sprint-planning` workflow
|
|
6. **Section 6 (Market Analysis):** Could reference `@research --market` command
|
|
7. **Section 7 (Risk Management):** Could reference `@solutioning-gate-check` workflow
|
|
8. **Section 8 (Success Metrics):** Could reference workflow status tracking
|
|
|
|
**Current Value:** Generic guide for any product team
|
|
**Potential Value:** BMAD-aware guide showing how to use BMAD workflows for each step
|

## Link Validation
|
|
|
|
✅ **No broken links detected** (file contains no internal references)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Schema Validation
|
|
|
|
✅ **N/A** - This is a Markdown documentation file, not an agent/workflow YAML requiring schema validation
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Decision Factors
|
|
|
|
### Accept or Reject?
|
|
|
|
**Reasons to ACCEPT:**
|
|
|
|
1. Content is valuable - comprehensive planning checklist
|
|
2. No technical errors (valid Markdown)
|
|
3. Fills gap in BMAD documentation (planning guidance)
|
|
4. Easy fixes (whitespace cleanup, relocation)
|
|
5. Contributor effort is significant and well-intentioned
|
|
|
|
**Reasons to REQUEST CHANGES:**
|
|
|
|
1. Root placement violates 100% consistent convention
|
|
2. 148 trailing whitespace errors fail CI
|
|
3. Zero BMAD integration reduces value to BMAD users
|
|
4. Creates precedent for generic content without methodology integration
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:** **REQUEST CHANGES** with specific relocation path and optional enhancement suggestions
|
|

|
## Required Changes
|
|
|
|
### 1. File Relocation (REQUIRED)
|
|
|
|
**From:** `/high-level-product-plan.md`
|
|
**To:** `docs/planning/product-planning-checklist.md`
|
|
|
|
**Steps:**
|
|
|
|
1. Create `docs/planning/` directory (new category)
|
|
2. Move file to new location
|
|
3. Rename to `product-planning-checklist.md` (kebab-case, descriptive)
|
|
|
|
### 2. Code Style Fix (REQUIRED)
|
|
|
|
**Command:** `npx prettier --write docs/planning/product-planning-checklist.md`
|
|
**Impact:** Removes 148 trailing whitespace errors
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Optional Enhancements
|
|
|
|
### Add BMAD Integration Section (OPTIONAL - 1 hour effort)
|
|
|
|
**Approach:** Add a new section at the end showing how BMAD workflows map to the checklist:
|
|
|
|
````markdown
|
|
## Using BMAD for Product Planning
|
|
|
|
This checklist can be executed using BMAD workflows. Here's how each section maps to BMAD commands:
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Discovery & Vision
|
|
|
|
- **Vision & Objectives** → `@product-brief` - Generate comprehensive product brief
|
|
- **Target Audience** → `@research --user` - User research and personas
|
|
- **Market Analysis** → `@research --market` - Market research and competitor analysis
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Planning & Specification
|
|
|
|
- **Feature Planning** → `@prd` - Product Requirements Document generation
|
|
- **Technical Architecture** → `@architecture` - Technical architecture planning
|
|
- **Resources & Timeline** → `@sprint-planning` - Sprint planning and estimation
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: Validation & Risk Management
|
|
|
|
- **Risk Management** → `@solutioning-gate-check` - Architecture and risk validation
|
|
- **Success Metrics** → Workflow status tracking in `.bmad/status.yaml`
|
|
|
|
For details on any workflow, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bmad-cli workflow --info <workflow-name>
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Benefits:**
|
|
- Makes generic content BMAD-specific
|
|
- Provides practical CLI usage examples
|
|
- Demonstrates BMAD workflow coverage
|
|
- Preserves original contributor content
|
|
|
|
**Effort:** ~1 hour (see integration-assessment.md for full analysis)
|
|
