SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Task validation ensures upfront that ideas are decomposed into well-scoped, verifiable tasks that align with the concept_summary and backlog, reducing scope creep and miscommunication.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validates each task against the canonical inputs: concept_summary.md, latest/features_backlog.md, latest/tasks.md, and baseline inputs to ensure coverage and alignment.
  • Generates per-idea run reports and updates latest validator outputs, with optional patching of tasks when allowed by config.
  • Produces run logs and updates the idea manifest to support traceability and governance.

Quick Start

Provide IDEA_ID to run the validator and generate a validation report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate tasks against a concept summary and backlog?▼

Task validation cross-references concept_summary.md, features_backlog.md, and latest tasks to ensure scope accuracy and testability. It generates a structured validation report and updates run logs to maintain governance and traceability.

What is task validation for product management?▼

Task validation ensures ideas decompose into well-scoped, verifiable tasks aligned with the concept summary and backlog. This reduces scope creep and miscommunication by checking coverage against baseline inputs upfront.

How do I run task validation for a specific idea?▼

Provide the IDEA_ID to run the validator and generate a task_validation_report.md. The process updates latest validator outputs, logs to run_log.md, and optionally patches tasks when allowed by configuration.

Does task validation require any specific dependencies?▼

No dependencies are required to run task validation. You only need the canonical input files like concept_summary.md, features_backlog.md, and latest tasks available for the specified IDEA_ID to execute the validation workflow.

Can task validation automatically patch misaligned tasks?▼

Task validation can optionally patch tasks when allowed by configuration settings. By default it produces a structured validation report identifying scope inaccuracies and testability issues without altering the original task files.
