# Specification Quality Checklist: Sitemap XML Generation

**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning
**Created**: 2025-07-14
**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md)

## Content Quality

- [x] No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs) — *Note: FR-008/FR-009 reference `xmlbuilder2` and the VM sandbox constraint. These are explicitly mandated architectural constraints from the feature description, not incidental implementation choices; they belong in the spec as requirements.*
- [x] Focused on user value and business needs
- [x] Written for non-technical stakeholders — *Technical terms (Redis, OIDC) are domain-specific to this integration; they cannot be abstracted away without losing meaning.*
- [x] All mandatory sections completed — User Scenarios, Requirements, Success Criteria, Assumptions all present

## Requirement Completeness

- [x] No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
- [x] Requirements are testable and unambiguous — All FRs use precise MUST language with measurable conditions
- [x] Success criteria are measurable — SC-001 (5-second response time), SC-002 (zero silent drops), SC-003 (zero regressions), SC-004 (XSD validation), SC-005 (10-second error bound)
- [x] Success criteria are technology-agnostic — SC-004 references the public Sitemaps XSD standard, not an internal tool
- [x] All acceptance scenarios are defined — 8 acceptance scenarios across 3 user stories
- [x] Edge cases are identified — 5 edge cases documented (expired token, missing `vkm:url`, large result sets, missing settings, missing `xmlbuilder2`)
- [x] Scope is clearly bounded — v1 scope explicitly excludes pagination, multi-tenant, and optional sitemap elements
- [x] Dependencies and assumptions identified — 8 assumptions documented

## Feature Readiness

- [x] All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria — FR-001–FR-013 each trace to at least one acceptance scenario or edge case
- [x] User scenarios cover primary flows — Happy path (P1), backwards compatibility (P2), error/degradation (P3)
- [x] Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria — All 5 success criteria are verifiable without implementation knowledge
- [x] No implementation details leak into specification — Architectural constraints are present as explicit requirements per the feature description

## Notes

- All checklist items pass. The spec is ready for `/speckit.clarify` (optional) or `/speckit.plan`.
- The shape of the Knowledge Search Service response envelope (how results are nested) is assumed in the Assumptions section and flagged for confirmation during implementation.
- SC-001 (5 seconds) and the 10-second timeout assumption are reasonable defaults and can be revisited during planning if the team has SLA data for the KME environment.
