# GSD — Validation Phase ## When to Use After implementation but before shipping. Confirms the work matches the spec and all requirements are covered. ## Steps ### Step 1: Read SPEC.md Read `.planning/SPEC.md` to understand the specification requirements. ### Step 2: Cross-Check Implementation For each requirement in SPEC.md: 1. Identify the files that implement it 2. Verify the implementation matches the spec 3. Note any gaps or deviations ### Step 3: Check REQUIREMENTS.md Coverage Read `.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md`. For each REQ-ID: - Verify the requirement is implemented - Verify it passes its acceptance criteria - Note any unimplemented or partially implemented requirements ### Step 4: Write VALIDATION.md ``` # Validation Report — Phase <N> ## Requirements Coverage | REQ-ID | Requirement | Implementation | Status | |--------|-------------|----------------|--------| | REQ-01 | | | COVERED / PARTIAL / MISSING | ## Gaps Found <list of any gaps or deviations> ## Gate: PASS / FAIL ``` ## Exit Condition VALIDATION.md exists with Gate: PASS (all REQ-IDs covered).
