# Specification Quality Checklist: PDP Conversation Starters Bridge

**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning
**Created**: 2026-03-09
**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md)

## Content Quality

- [x] No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
- [x] Focused on user value and business needs
- [x] Written for non-technical stakeholders
- [x] All mandatory sections completed

## Requirement Completeness

- [x] No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
- [x] Requirements are testable and unambiguous
- [x] Success criteria are measurable
- [x] Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
- [x] All acceptance scenarios are defined
- [x] Edge cases are identified
- [x] Scope is clearly bounded
- [x] Dependencies and assumptions identified

## Feature Readiness

- [x] All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
- [x] User scenarios cover primary flows
- [x] Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
- [x] No implementation details leak into specification

## Notes

- All items pass validation.
- The spec references internal method names (`getStarters`, `_handleMessage`, `SERVICE_EVENTS`) which are borderline implementation detail, but they are necessary to specify the public API contract of a library. This is acceptable because webchat-service IS the API layer — its public methods and events are the "what", not the "how".
- No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers were needed. All decisions have reasonable defaults based on the existing codebase patterns and the fully-implemented socket server contract.
