+  - Cache brief context: reuse throughout validation run
+  - Focus on deviations: report gaps vs. brief requirements
+  - Brief-centric output: tie all findings back to brief sections
+---
+
+## Context
+
+**Purpose**: Validate all generated artifacts against `brief.md` (Source of Truth) for contextual alignment, logical coherence, and cross-artifact consistency.
+
+**Upstream Dependencies**:
+- `.prodo/` configuration directory must exist.
+- `brief.md` must exist and is valid (Source of Truth).
+- `.prodo/briefs/normalized-brief.json` must exist (Execute normalize step if missing).
+- `.prodo/settings.json` may exist (for output language preference).
+- At least one artifact (PRD, stories, techspec, wireframe, workflow) must exist in `product-docs/`.
+
+**Validation Scope**:
+- Source of Truth Alignment: All artifacts align with `brief.md` context and requirements.
+- Contextual Coherence: Each artifact makes logical sense in product context.
+- Cross-Artifact Consistency: No contradictions between artifacts.
+- Missing Requirements: Identify gaps vs. brief requirements.
+- Logical Flow: Verify narrative and process flow coherence.
+
+**Downstream Impact**: Validation report guides artifact refinement and identifies areas needing correction to align with brief.
+
+**User Input**
+
+```text
+$ARGUMENTS
+```
+
+## Execution Policy
+
+**Safety & Integrity**:
+- Execute-first, diagnose-second.
+- Do not execute shell/CLI commands from inside the agent.
+- Never invoke `prodo-validate`, `prodo validate`, or `prodo ...` commands in shell.
+- **Input files are read-only**: Do not modify any artifacts, brief, or config files during validation.
+- Never print raw validation payload to chat; return only report summary + report file path.
+- **Read output language from `.prodo/settings.json`** and write report in that language (default: "en").
+
+**Output Quality**:
+- Write validation report to `product-docs/reports/validation-report.md` with clear status and findings.
+- Report must be written in language specified in `.prodo/settings.json`.
+- Report includes: validation status (pass/warn/fail), findings count by severity, detailed issues with brief references.
+- Report format: Markdown for readability with structured sections.
+- **Validation failure blocks pipeline**: Critical issues (deviations from brief, contradictions) must be resolved before proceeding.
+
+## Execution
+
+1. **Verify prerequisites: `.prodo/`, `brief.md`, and `normalized-brief.json`.**
+   - Confirm `.prodo/` directory exists.
+   - Confirm `brief.md` exists and is readable (Source of Truth).
+   - Confirm `.prodo/briefs/normalized-brief.json` exists and is valid JSON.
+   - Read `.prodo/settings.json` for output language preference (default: "en").
+   - Check for corrupt or stale artifact state.
+
+2. **Cross-validate all artifacts in `product-docs/` against `brief.md` (Source of Truth):**
+   - Load `brief.md` content (product vision, goals, personas, scope, constraints).
+   - Load `normalized-brief.json` for structured reference data.
+   - Enumerate all artifacts under `product-docs/` (PRD, stories, techspec, wireframes, workflows).
+   - **Check for contextual alignment with the original brief:**
+     - Does artifact content align with brief context and intent?
+     - Are brief goals reflected in artifact features/stories/specifications?
+     - Are brief personas properly represented across artifacts?
+     - Does artifact respect brief scope boundaries?
+     - Does artifact comply with brief constraints?
+   - **Ensure logical flow and cross-artifact consistency:**
+     - Feature consistency: PRD features → Stories → Techspec alignment.
+     - Persona journey: Brief personas → Stories → Workflow coverage.
+     - Goal tracing: Brief goals → PRD goals → Story goals → Success metrics.
+     - Scope respect: No features beyond brief scope.
+     - No contradictions: Consistent requirements across artifacts.
+   - **Flag any deviations or missing requirements from the brief:**
+     - Deviations: Features not in brief, personas not mentioned, goals not addressed.
+     - Missing requirements: What should be in artifact but isn't.
+     - Contextual gaps: Unclear flow, missing connections to brief intent.
+
+3. **Write/update `product-docs/reports/validation-report.md` (or .json):**
+   - Create/update report in language specified in `.prodo/settings.json`.
+   - Report structure:
+     - **Header**: Validation date, language, brief version, overall status (pass/warn/fail).
+     - **Summary**: Finding counts by severity, actionable recommendations.
+     - **Brief Alignment Findings**: Deviations from brief with specific references.
+     - **Consistency Issues**: Cross-artifact inconsistencies with affected artifacts.
+     - **Missing Requirements**: Gaps between brief and artifacts.
+     - **Recommendations**: Priority actions to achieve brief alignment.
+   - Include metadata: validation timestamp, language used, artifacts validated.
+
+4. **Confirm `brief.md` and source artifacts remain unchanged (read-only):**
+   - Verify `brief.md` was not modified during validation.
+   - Verify `normalized-brief.json` was not modified.
+   - Verify all `product-docs/` artifacts were not modified.
+   - Log validation completion and status.
+
+5. **Diagnose internals only if the validation fails or significant gaps are found:**
+   - If `brief.md` is missing: report error with recovery instructions.
+   - If `normalized-brief.json` is missing: report error (Execute normalize step first).
+   - If no artifacts exist: report informational message (nothing to validate yet).
+   - If `.prodo/settings.json` is missing: use default language "en".
+   - If validation detects significant gaps: provide detailed diagnostics.
+   - If contextual misalignment found: explain deviation from brief with examples.
+   - If cross-artifact inconsistencies detected: report specific conflicts.
+   - If file system write fails: report permissions or directory creation error.
+
+## Validation Logic
+
+**Brief-Centric Validation**:
+- `brief.md` is Source of Truth (golden reference).
+- All artifacts must trace back to brief requirements.
+- Deviations must be explicitly documented and justified.
+- Cross-artifact consistency verified through brief alignment.
+
+**Contextual Alignment Checks**:
+- Does artifact preserve brief context and intent?
+- Are brief requirements covered in artifact?
+- Is artifact flow logical and coherent?
+- Are relationships between artifacts clear?
+
+**Consistency Rules**:
+- Every brief requirement → at least one artifact reference.
+- Every artifact feature → traceable to brief requirement.
+- No contradictions across artifacts.
+- Language/tone consistent with brief context.
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- ✅ Validation report exists at `product-docs/reports/validation-report.md`.
+- ✅ Report clearly indicates overall status (pass/warn/fail).
+- ✅ Report includes all deviations from brief with specific references.
+- ✅ Report identifies missing requirements from brief.
+- ✅ All cross-artifact consistency issues documented.
+- ✅ Original `brief.md`, `normalized-brief.json`, and all artifacts remain unchanged (read-only).
+- ✅ Report written in language specified in `.prodo/settings.json`.
+- ✅ Report is actionable and guides refinement toward brief alignment.

+       - **Preconditions**: State before workflow starts (prerequisites, required data).
+       - **Happy Path**: Step-by-step process flow (numbered steps with descriptions).
+       - **Decision Points**: Conditional branches with criteria and outcomes.
+       - **Exception Paths**: Error scenarios and recovery steps (e.g., network timeout, invalid input).
+       - **Postconditions**: Expected state after workflow completes.
+       - **Success Criteria**: How to validate workflow completed successfully.
+       - **Performance Notes**: Expected duration, throughput, constraints.
+     - **System Workflows**: Backend processes (data sync, notifications, batch jobs, webhooks).
+     - **Integration Points**: Third-party systems, APIs, and data exchanges.
+     - **Timeline Considerations**: Any time-dependent aspects (rate limiting, async processing, retries).
+     - **Error Handling Strategy**: How errors are detected, logged, and recovered from.
+
+5. **Generate Mermaid Workflow Diagrams**
+   - Create workflow.mmd with visual representations:
+     - **Flowchart (User Workflows)**: For each primary workflow:
+       - Start/end nodes.
+       - Process steps (rectangles).
+       - Decision nodes (diamonds).
+       - System/external action nodes.
+       - Clear labels and flow direction.
+     - **Sequence Diagram (System Interactions)**: For critical workflows:
+       - Participants: user, frontend, backend, database, external services.
+       - Message flows with descriptions.
+       - Synchronous vs. asynchronous interactions.
+       - Error cases and recovery paths.
+     - **State Machine (Complex Features)**: For features with multiple states:
+       - States (circles/rectangles).
+       - Valid transitions with trigger labels.
+       - Initial and final states.
+     - **Timeline Diagram (Optional)**: For workflows with timing constraints (rate limiting, async processing).
+
+6. **Validate Paired Workflow Artifacts**
+   - Confirm both workflow.md and workflow.mmd were created under `product-docs/workflows/`.
+   - Validate markdown structure: proper headings, consistent formatting, complete workflow descriptions.
+   - Validate Mermaid syntax: diagrams parse correctly, no syntax errors.
+   - Render Mermaid diagrams: verify visual clarity and readability.
+   - Verify workflows cover all PRD features and user personas.
+   - Verify workflows do not contradict PRD, brief, or other artifacts.
+   - Verify exception paths and error handling are documented.
+   - Verify system integrations are clearly identified.
+   - Check for workflow completeness (all steps, decision paths, error cases documented).
+   - Include metadata header: generation date, PRD hash, template version.
+
+7. **Audit & Verify Integrity**
+   - Confirm original `brief.md`, normalized-brief.json, and PRD files were not modified.
+   - Log file paths, workflow count, and generation metadata.
+
+8. **Safety Constraints**
+   - Do not create manual fallback files under `.prodo/`.
+   - Do not write outside `product-docs/workflows/` directory.
+   - Do not modify config, template, PRD, or brief files.
+
+9. **Diagnosis & Error Handling**
+   - If PRD is missing: report error with instruction to execute PRD generation step first.
+   - If normalized-brief.json is missing: report error with instruction to execute normalize step first.
+   - If workflows are complex or unclear: flag as warnings and suggest expert review.
+   - If Mermaid syntax is invalid: report syntax error with correction suggestions.
+   - If system integrations are unclear: flag for clarification in brief or PRD.
+   - If file system write fails: report permissions or directory creation error.
 
-## Execution
+## Success Criteria
 
-1. Verify minimal prerequisites (`.prodo/`, `brief.md`, normalized brief).
-2. Use normalized brief + latest PRD and apply workflow templates (`.prodo/templates/workflow.md` and `.prodo/templates/workflow.mmd`).
-3. Confirm paired outputs exist under `product-docs/workflows/` (`.md` + `.mmd`).
-4. Confirm `brief.md` content did not change.
-5. Do not create manual fallback files under `.prodo/`.
-6. Diagnose internals only if command fails.
