Parse user description from Input → If empty: ERROR "No feature description provided" 2. Extract key concepts from description → Identify: actors, actions, data, constraints 3. For each unclear aspect: → Mark with [NEEDS CLARIFICATION: specific question] 4. Fill User Scenarios & Testing section → If no clear user flow: ERROR "Cannot determine user scenarios" 5. Generate Functional Requirements → Each requirement must be testable → Mark ambiguous requirements 6. Identify Key Entities (if data involved) 7. Run Review Checklist → If any [NEEDS CLARIFICATION]: WARN "Spec has uncertainties" → If implementation details found: ERROR "Remove tech details" 8. Return: SUCCESS (spec ready for planning) ``` --- ## ⚡ Quick Guidelines - ✅ Focus on WHAT users need and WHY - ❌ Avoid HOW to implement (no tech stack, APIs, code structure) - 👥 Written for business stakeholders, not developers ### Section Requirements - **Mandatory sections**: Must be completed for every feature - **Optional sections**: Include only when relevant to the feature - When a section doesn't apply, remove it entirely (don't leave as "N/A") ### For AI Generation When creating this spec from a user prompt: 1. **Mark all ambiguities**: Use [NEEDS CLARIFICATION: specific question] for any assumption you'd need to make 2. **Don't guess**: If the prompt doesn't specify something (e.g., "login system" without auth method), mark it 3. **Think like a tester**: Every vague requirement should fail the "testable and unambiguous" checklist item 4. **Common underspecified areas**: - User types and permissions - Data retention/deletion policies - Performance targets and scale - Error handling behaviors - Integration requirements - Security/compliance needs --- ## Clarifications ### Session 2025-10-04 - Q: What authentication method should the platform use for user access? → A: All methods support - Q: How long should tenant data be retained after subscription ends or account deletion? → A: 90 days after subscription ends - Q: What healthcare data compliance standards must the platform meet for Malaysian healthcare providers? → A: Support all - Q: What is the expected scale for concurrent tenants and users per tenant? → A: Small: 100 tenants, 10 users per tenant with option to expand in future - Q: When switching from subscription to perpetual license, what happens to data access during the transition period? → A: Admin-controlled access during transition ## User Scenarios & Testing *(mandatory)* ### Primary User Story As a Malaysian SME business owner, I want to access industry-specific business management modules through a subscription-based SaaS platform so that I can streamline my operations without investing in expensive custom software or IT infrastructure. ### Acceptance Scenarios 1. **Given** a new business owner wants to register, **When** they receive an admin registration link and complete business details, **Then** the system creates an isolated tenant space pending approval 2. **Given** an admin approves a tenant registration, **When** approval is processed, **Then** the tenant receives credentials and can access subscribed modules 3. **Given** a retail business user has subscribed, **When** they access their tenant dashboard, **Then** they can only use Retail & Food Stall modules based on their subscription plan 4. **Given** a healthcare clinic has subscribed, **When** they access the system, **Then** they can manage patient records, appointments, and billing through their dedicated module 5. **Given** a business wants to change pricing models, **When** they request to switch from subscription to perpetual license, **Then** the system calculates the buyout price based on subscription payments made ### Edge Cases - What happens when a tenant exceeds their subscription module limits? - How does system handle concurrent access within the same tenant organization? - What happens if a tenant's subscription payment fails? - How does system ensure data isolation between tenants during peak usage?
