-- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
-- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator

-- ✅ We engage in systematic validation, not collaborative dialogue
-- ✅ You bring analytical rigor and traceability matrix expertise
-- ✅ This step runs autonomously - no user input needed
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus ONLY on traceability chain validation
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to validate other aspects in this step
-- 💬 Approach: Systematic chain validation and orphan detection
-- 🚪 This is a validation sequence step - auto-proceeds when complete
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Build and validate traceability matrix
-- 💾 Identify broken chains and orphan requirements
-- 📖 Append findings to validation report
-- 📖 Display "Proceeding to next check..." and load next step
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to pause or request user input
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Available context: PRD file, validation report
-- Focus: Traceability chain validation only
-- Limits: Don't validate other aspects, don't pause for user input
-- Dependencies: Steps 2-5 completed - initial validations done
-
-## MANDATORY SEQUENCE
-
-**CRITICAL:** Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise unless user explicitly requests a change.
-
-### 1. Attempt Sub-Process Validation
-
-**Try to use Task tool to spawn a subprocess:**
-
-"Perform traceability validation on this PRD:
-
-1. Extract content from Executive Summary (vision, goals)
-2. Extract Success Criteria
-3. Extract User Journeys (user types, flows, outcomes)
-4. Extract Functional Requirements (FRs)
-5. Extract Product Scope (in-scope items)
-
-**Validate chains:**
-- Executive Summary → Success Criteria: Does vision align with defined success?
-- Success Criteria → User Journeys: Are success criteria supported by user journeys?
-- User Journeys → Functional Requirements: Does each FR trace back to a user journey?
-- Scope → FRs: Do MVP scope FRs align with in-scope items?
-
-**Identify orphans:**
-- FRs not traceable to any user journey or business objective
-- Success criteria not supported by user journeys
-- User journeys without supporting FRs
-
-Build traceability matrix and identify broken chains and orphan FRs.
-
-Return structured findings with chain status and orphan list."
-
-### 2. Graceful Degradation (if Task tool unavailable)
-
-If Task tool unavailable, perform analysis directly:
-
-**Step 1: Extract key elements**
-- Executive Summary: Note vision, goals, objectives
-- Success Criteria: List all criteria
-- User Journeys: List user types and their flows
-- Functional Requirements: List all FRs
-- Product Scope: List in-scope items
-
-**Step 2: Validate Executive Summary → Success Criteria**
-- Does Executive Summary mention the success dimensions?
-- Are Success Criteria aligned with vision?
-- Note any misalignment
-
-**Step 3: Validate Success Criteria → User Journeys**
-- For each success criterion, is there a user journey that achieves it?
-- Note success criteria without supporting journeys
-
-**Step 4: Validate User Journeys → FRs**
-- For each user journey/flow, are there FRs that enable it?
-- List FRs with no clear user journey origin
-- Note orphan FRs (requirements without traceable source)
-
-**Step 5: Validate Scope → FR Alignment**
-- Does MVP scope align with essential FRs?
-- Are in-scope items supported by FRs?
-- Note misalignments
-
-**Step 6: Build traceability matrix**
-- Map each FR to its source (journey or business objective)
-- Note orphan FRs
-- Identify broken chains
-
-### 3. Tally Traceability Issues
-
-**Broken chains:**
-- Executive Summary → Success Criteria gaps: count
-- Success Criteria → User Journeys gaps: count
-- User Journeys → FRs gaps: count
-- Scope → FR misalignments: count
-
-**Orphan elements:**
-- Orphan FRs (no traceable source): count
-- Unsupported success criteria: count
-- User journeys without FRs: count
-
-**Total issues:** Sum of all broken chains and orphans
-
-### 4. Report Traceability Findings to Validation Report
-
-Append to validation report:

-- ✅ This step runs autonomously - no user input needed
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus ONLY on domain-specific compliance requirements
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to validate other aspects in this step
-- 💬 Approach: Conditional validation based on domain classification
-- 🚪 This is a validation sequence step - auto-proceeds when complete
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Check classification.domain from PRD frontmatter
-- 💬 If low complexity (general): Skip detailed checks
-- 🎯 If high complexity: Validate required special sections
-- 💾 Append compliance findings to validation report
-- 📖 Display "Proceeding to next check..." and load next step

-
-- Available context: PRD file with frontmatter classification, validation report
-- Focus: Domain compliance only (conditional on domain complexity)
-- Limits: Don't validate other aspects, conditional execution
-- Dependencies: Steps 2-7 completed - format and requirements validation done
-
-## MANDATORY SEQUENCE
-
-**CRITICAL:** Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise unless user explicitly requests a change.
-
-### 1. Load Domain Complexity Data
-
-Load and read the complete file at:
-`{domainComplexityData}` (../data/domain-complexity.csv)
-
-This CSV contains:
-- Domain classifications and complexity levels (high/medium/low)
-- Required special sections for each domain
-- Key concerns and requirements for regulated industries
-
-Internalize this data - it drives which domains require special compliance sections.
-
-### 2. Extract Domain Classification
-
-From PRD frontmatter, extract:
-- `classification.domain` - what domain is this PRD for?
-
-**If no domain classification found:**
-Treat as "general" (low complexity) and proceed to step 4
-
-### 2. Determine Domain Complexity
-
-**Low complexity domains (skip detailed checks):**
-- General
-- Consumer apps (standard e-commerce, social, productivity)
-- Content websites
-- Business tools (standard)
-
-**High complexity domains (require special sections):**
-- Healthcare / Healthtech
-- Fintech / Financial services
-- GovTech / Public sector
-- EdTech (educational records, accredited courses)
-- Legal tech
-- Other regulated domains
-
-### 3. For High-Complexity Domains: Validate Required Special Sections
-
-**Attempt subprocess validation:**
-
-"Perform domain compliance validation for {domain}:
-
-Based on {domain} requirements, check PRD for:
-
-**Healthcare:**
-- Clinical Requirements section
-- Regulatory Pathway (FDA, HIPAA, etc.)
-- Safety Measures
-- HIPAA Compliance (data privacy, security)
-- Patient safety considerations
-
-**Fintech:**
-- Compliance Matrix (SOC2, PCI-DSS, GDPR, etc.)
-- Security Architecture
-- Audit Requirements
-- Fraud Prevention measures
-- Financial transaction handling
-
-**GovTech:**
-- Accessibility Standards (WCAG 2.1 AA, Section 508)
-- Procurement Compliance
-- Security Clearance requirements
-- Data residency requirements
-
-**Other regulated domains:**
-- Check for domain-specific regulatory sections
-- Compliance requirements
-- Special considerations
-
-For each required section:
-- Is it present in PRD?
-- Is it adequately documented?
-- Note any gaps
-
-Return compliance matrix with presence/adequacy assessment."
-
-**Graceful degradation (if no Task tool):**
-- Manually check for required sections based on domain
-- List present sections and missing sections
-- Assess adequacy of documentation
-
-### 5. For Low-Complexity Domains: Skip Detailed Checks
-
-Append to validation report:
-```markdown

-**Master Rule:** Domain compliance is conditional. High-complexity domains require special sections - low complexity domains skip these checks.
