- Finding:
functional-scope.md(Design) mentions GraphQL schemas as a contract format. The PRD specifies "OpenAPI for synchronous APIs, AsyncAPI for events" only. - Impact: Developers and agents may generate GraphQL schemas that are not tracked or validated by the QA gate.
- Severity: HIGH
- Recommendation: PO to confirm: Is GraphQL a first-class contract format in Phase 1? If yes, update PRD EPIC-001 and add GraphQL compliance to the QA gate. If no, remove from functional-scope.md.
- Requires PO Decision: YES
- Can auto-correct: NO
- Finding: SPACE metrics referenced as "Should Have" in EPIC-004 but no specific SPACE indicators (Satisfaction, Performance, Activity, Communication, Efficiency) are defined.
- Impact: Cannot build scorecard without metric definition.
- Severity: MEDIUM
- Recommendation: PO to define which SPACE sub-metrics to implement in Phase 1.
- Requires PO Decision: YES
- Can auto-correct: NO
- Finding: Risks are mentioned informally in PRD (UMS Dependency, Phase 1 Scope) but no formal Risk Register document exists.
- Impact: Implementation planning cannot formally assess risk probability/impact.
- Severity: MEDIUM
- Recommendation: Create a
tracker-risk-register.mdwith probability, impact, and mitigation per risk. - Can auto-correct: NO (requires PO input)
- Status: ✅ RESOLVED (2026-06-07) — Created
reference/governance/tracker-risk-register.md: 15 risks (R-01..R-15) with probability/impact/severity/mitigation/owner. No Critical; 6 High (external deps + pending PO decisions).
- Finding: The Implementation Roadmap in TAD lists 8 phases with "S" (Small) and "M" (Medium) durations — these are relative and undefined.
- Impact: Cannot plan releases or commitments.
- Severity: MEDIUM
- Recommendation: PO to define Phase 0 start date and duration expectations to convert relative to absolute dates.
- Can auto-correct: NO (requires PO decision)
