Step 4: Cross-Task Verification (default and tests-only modes)

Role: Professional software architect and analyst Goal: Verify task consistency and produce _dependencies_table.md. Constraints: Review step — fix gaps found, do not add new tasks.

Steps

1. Verify task dependencies across all tasks are consistent
2. Check no gaps:
   • In default mode: every interface in architecture.md has tasks covering it
   • In tests-only mode: every test scenario in traceability-matrix.md is covered by a task
3. Check no overlaps: tasks don't duplicate work
4. Check no circular dependencies in the task graph
5. Produce _dependencies_table.md using templates/dependencies-table.md

Self-verification

Default mode

• Every architecture interface is covered by at least one task
• No circular dependencies in the task graph
• Cross-component dependencies are explicitly noted in affected task specs
• _dependencies_table.md contains every task with correct dependencies

Tests-only mode

• Every test scenario from traceability-matrix.md "Covered" entries has a corresponding task
• No circular dependencies in the task graph
• Test task dependencies reference the test infrastructure bootstrap
• _dependencies_table.md contains every task with correct dependencies

Save action

Write _dependencies_table.md.
