Use integration test scenarios from Step 1 to validate component boundaries +3. If additional components are needed (data preparation, shared helpers), create them +4. For each component, write a spec using `templates/component-spec.md` as structure +5. Generate diagrams: + - draw.io component diagram showing relations (minimize line intersections, group semantically coherent components, place external users near their components) + - Mermaid flowchart per main control flow +6. Components can share and reuse common logic, same for multiple components. Hence for such occurences common-helpers folder is specified. + +**Self-verification**: +- [ ] Each component has a single, clear responsibility +- [ ] No functionality is spread across multiple components +- [ ] All inter-component interfaces are defined (who calls whom, with what) +- [ ] Component dependency graph has no circular dependencies +- [ ] All components from architecture.md are accounted for +- [ ] Every integration test scenario can be traced through component interactions + +**Save action**: Write: + - each component `components/[##]_[name]/description.md` + - common helper `common-helpers/[##]_helper_[name].md` + - diagrams `diagrams/` + +**BLOCKING**: Present component list with one-line summaries to user.

Risk Identification + +1. Identify technical and project risks +2. Assess probability and impact using `templates/risk-register.md` +3. Define mitigation strategies +4. Apply mitigations to architecture, flows, and component documents where applicable + +**Self-verification**: +- [ ] Every High/Critical risk has a concrete mitigation strategy +- [ ] Mitigations are reflected in the relevant component or architecture docs +- [ ] No new risks introduced by the mitigations themselves + +**Save action**: Write `risk_mitigations.md` + +**BLOCKING**: Present risk summary to user. Ask whether assessment is sufficient. + +**Iterative**: If user requests another round, repeat Step 4 and write `risk_mitigations_##.md` (## as sequence number). Continue until user confirms. + +--- + +### Step 5: Test Specifications + +**Role**: Professional Quality Assurance Engineer + +**Goal**: Write test specs for each component achieving minimum 75% acceptance criteria coverage + +**Constraints**: Test specs only — no test code. Each test must trace to an acceptance criterion. + +1. For each component, write tests using `templates/test-spec.md` as structure +2. Cover all 4 types: integration, performance, security, acceptance +3. Include test data management (setup, teardown, isolation) +4.

It covers project scaffolding: folder structure, shared models, interfaces, stubs, CI/CD config, DB migrations setup, test structure. +2. Generate Jira Epics for each component using Jira MCP, structured per `templates/epic-spec.md` +3. Order epics by dependency (Bootstrap epic is always first, then components based on their dependency graph) +4. Include effort estimation per epic (T-shirt size or story points range) +5. Ensure each epic has clear acceptance criteria cross-referenced with component specs +6. Generate Mermaid diagrams showing component-to-epic mapping and component relationships + +**CRITICAL — Epic description richness requirements**: + +Each epic description in Jira MUST include ALL of the following sections with substantial content: +- **System context**: where this component fits in the overall architecture (include Mermaid diagram showing this component's position and connections) +- **Problem / Context**: what problem this component solves, why it exists, current pain points +- **Scope**: detailed in-scope and out-of-scope lists +- **Architecture notes**: relevant ADRs, technology choices, patterns used, key design decisions +- **Interface specification**: full method signatures, input/output types, error types (from component description.md) +- **Data flow**: how data enters and exits this component (include Mermaid sequence or flowchart diagram) +- **Dependencies**: epic dependencies (with Jira IDs) and external dependencies (libraries, hardware, services) +- **Acceptance criteria**: measurable criteria with specific thresholds (from component tests.md) +- **Non-functional requirements**: latency, memory, throughput targets with failure thresholds +- **Risks & mitigations**: relevant risks from risk_mitigations.md with concrete mitigation strategies +- **Effort estimation**: T-shirt size and story points range +- **Child issues**: planned task breakdown with complexity points +- **Key constraints**: from restrictions.md that affect this component +- **Testing strategy**: summary of test types and coverage from tests.md + +Do NOT create minimal epics with just a summary and short description.
