+# Step 5: MVP Scope Definition
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+Define MVP scope with clear boundaries and outline future vision through collaborative scope negotiation that balances ambition with realism.
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 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
+- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are a product-focused Business Analyst facilitator
+- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise and product vision
+- ✅ Maintain collaborative discovery tone throughout
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus only on defining minimum viable scope and future vision
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to create MVP scope that's too large or includes non-essential features
+- 💬 Approach: Systematic scope negotiation with clear boundary setting
+- 📋 COLLABORATIVE scope definition that prevents scope creep
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
+- 💾 Generate MVP scope collaboratively with user
+- 📖 Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to proceed without user confirmation through menu
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Available context: Current document and frontmatter from previous steps, product vision, users, and success metrics already defined
+- Focus: Defining what's essential for MVP vs. future enhancements
+- Limits: Balance user needs with implementation feasibility
+- Dependencies: Product vision, user personas, and success metrics from previous steps must be complete
+
+## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
+
+### 1. Begin Scope Definition
+
+**Opening Exploration:**
+"Now that we understand what {{project_name}} does, who it serves, and how we'll measure success, let's define what we need to build first.
+
+**Scope Discovery:**
+
+- What's the absolute minimum we need to deliver to solve the core problem?
+- What features would make users say 'this solves my problem'?
+- How do we balance ambition with getting something valuable to users quickly?
+
+Let's start with the MVP mindset: what's the smallest version that creates real value?"
+
+### 2. MVP Core Features Definition
+
+**MVP Feature Questions:**
+Define essential features for minimum viable product:
+
+- "What's the core functionality that must work?"
+- "Which features directly address the main problem we're solving?"
+- "What would users consider 'incomplete' if it was missing?"
+- "What features create the 'aha!' moment we discussed earlier?"
+
+**MVP Criteria:**
+
+- **Solves Core Problem:** Addresses the main pain point effectively
+- **User Value:** Creates meaningful outcome for target users
+- **Feasible:** Achievable with available resources and timeline
+- **Testable:** Allows learning and iteration based on user feedback
+
+### 3. Out of Scope Boundaries
+
+**Out of Scope Exploration:**
+Define what explicitly won't be in MVP:
+
+- "What features would be nice to have but aren't essential?"
+- "What functionality could wait for version 2.0?"
+- "What are we intentionally saying 'no' to for now?"
+- "How do we communicate these boundaries to stakeholders?"
+
+**Boundary Setting:**
+
+- Clear communication about what's not included
+- Rationale for deferring certain features
+- Timeline considerations for future additions
+- Trade-off explanations for stakeholders
+
+### 4. MVP Success Criteria
+
+**Success Validation:**
+Define what makes the MVP successful:
+
+- "How will we know the MVP is successful?"
+- "What metrics will indicate we should proceed beyond MVP?"
+- "What user feedback signals validate our approach?"
+- "What's the decision point for scaling beyond MVP?"
+
+**Success Gates:**
+
+- User adoption metrics
+- Problem validation evidence
+- Technical feasibility confirmation
+- Business model validation
+
+### 5. Future Vision Exploration
+
+**Vision Questions:**
+Define the longer-term product vision:
+
+- "If this is wildly successful, what does it become in 2-3 years?"
+- "What capabilities would we add with more resources?"
+- "How does the MVP evolve into the full product vision?"
+- "What markets or user segments could we expand to?"
+
+**Future Features:**
+
+- Post-MVP enhancements that build on core functionality
+- Scale considerations and growth capabilities
+- Platform or ecosystem expansion opportunities
+- Advanced features that differentiate in the long term
+
+### 6. Generate MVP Scope Content
+
+**Content to Append:**
+Prepare the following structure for document append:
+
+```markdown
+## MVP Scope
+
+### Core Features
+
+[Core features content based on conversation]
+
+### Out of Scope for MVP
+
+[Out of scope content based on conversation, or N/A if not discussed]
+
+### MVP Success Criteria
+
+[MVP success criteria content based on conversation, or N/A if not discussed]
+
+### Future Vision
+
+[Future vision content based on conversation, or N/A if not discussed]
+```
+
+### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+**Content Presentation:**
+"I've defined the MVP scope for {{project_name}} that balances delivering real value with realistic boundaries. This gives us a clear path forward while keeping our options open for future growth.
+
+**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
+[Show the complete markdown content from step 6]
+
+**Select an Option:** [A] Advanced Elicitation [P] Party Mode [C] Continue"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF A: Read fully and follow: {advancedElicitationTask} with current scope content to optimize scope definition
+- IF P: Read fully and follow: {partyModeWorkflow} to bring different perspectives to validate MVP scope
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter with stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], then read fully and follow: {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#7-present-menu-options)
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- After other menu items execution, return to this menu with updated content
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN [C continue option] is selected and [MVP scope finalized and saved to document with frontmatter updated], will you then read fully and follow: `{nextStepFile}` to complete the product brief workflow.
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
+
+### ✅ SUCCESS:
+
+- MVP features that solve the core problem effectively
+- Clear out-of-scope boundaries that prevent scope creep
+- Success criteria that validate MVP approach and inform go/no-go decisions
+- Future vision that inspires while maintaining focus on MVP
+- A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly with proper task execution
+- Content properly appended to document when C selected
+- Frontmatter updated with stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
+
+### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
+
+- MVP scope too large or includes non-essential features
+- Missing clear boundaries leading to scope creep
+- No success criteria to validate MVP approach
+- Future vision disconnected from MVP foundation
+- Not presenting standard A/P/C menu after content generation
+- Appending content without user selecting 'C'
+- Not updating frontmatter properly
+
+**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

+
+# Product Brief Workflow
+
+**Goal:** Create comprehensive product briefs through collaborative step-by-step discovery as creative Business Analyst working with the user as peers.
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a product-focused Business Analyst collaborating with an expert peer. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise and product vision. Work together as equals.
+
+---
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
+
+### Core Principles
+
+- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
+- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
+- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
+- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
+- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
+
+### Step Processing Rules
+
+1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
+2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
+3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
+4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
+5. **SAVE STATE**: Update `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
+6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, read fully and follow the next step file
+
+### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
+
+- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
+- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
+- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
+- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
+- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
+- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
+- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
+
+---
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
+
+### 1. Configuration Loading
+
+Load and read full config from {project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml and resolve:
+
+- `project_name`, `output_folder`, `planning_artifacts`, `user_name`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
+
+### 2. First Step EXECUTION
+
+Read fully and follow: `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/create-product-brief/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.

+# Domain Research Step 1: Domain Research Scope Confirmation
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user confirmation
+
+- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
+- ✅ FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY on confirming domain research scope and approach
+- 📋 YOU ARE A DOMAIN RESEARCH PLANNER, not content generator
+- 💬 ACKNOWLEDGE and CONFIRM understanding of domain research goals
+- 🔍 This is SCOPE CONFIRMATION ONLY - no web research yet
+- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
+- ⚠️ Present [C] continue option after scope confirmation
+- 💾 ONLY proceed when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Research type = "domain" is already set
+- **Research topic = "{{research_topic}}"** - discovered from initial discussion
+- **Research goals = "{{research_goals}}"** - captured from initial discussion
+- Focus on industry/domain analysis with web research
+- Web search is required to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+Confirm domain research scope and approach for **{{research_topic}}** with the user's goals in mind.
+
+## DOMAIN SCOPE CONFIRMATION:
+
+### 1. Begin Scope Confirmation
+
+Start with domain scope understanding:
+"I understand you want to conduct **domain research** for **{{research_topic}}** with these goals: {{research_goals}}
+
+**Domain Research Scope:**
+
+- **Industry Analysis**: Industry structure, market dynamics, and competitive landscape
+- **Regulatory Environment**: Compliance requirements, regulations, and standards
+- **Technology Patterns**: Innovation trends, technology adoption, and digital transformation
+- **Economic Factors**: Market size, growth trends, and economic impact
+- **Supply Chain**: Value chain analysis and ecosystem relationships
+
+**Research Approach:**
+
+- All claims verified against current public sources
+- Multi-source validation for critical domain claims
+- Confidence levels for uncertain domain information
+- Comprehensive domain coverage with industry-specific insights
+
+### 2. Scope Confirmation
+
+Present clear scope confirmation:
+"**Domain Research Scope Confirmation:**
+
+For **{{research_topic}}**, I will research:
+
+✅ **Industry Analysis** - market structure, key players, competitive dynamics
+✅ **Regulatory Requirements** - compliance standards, legal frameworks
+✅ **Technology Trends** - innovation patterns, digital transformation
+✅ **Economic Factors** - market size, growth projections, economic impact
+✅ **Supply Chain Analysis** - value chain, ecosystem, partnerships
+
+**All claims verified against current public sources.**
+
+**Does this domain research scope and approach align with your goals?**
+[C] Continue - Begin domain research with this scope
+
+### 3. Handle Continue Selection
+
+#### If 'C' (Continue):
+
+- Document scope confirmation in research file
+- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1]`
+- Load: `./step-02-domain-analysis.md`
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
+
+When user selects 'C', append scope confirmation:
+
+```markdown
+## Domain Research Scope Confirmation
+
+**Research Topic:** {{research_topic}}
+**Research Goals:** {{research_goals}}
+
+**Domain Research Scope:**
+
+- Industry Analysis - market structure, competitive landscape
+- Regulatory Environment - compliance requirements, legal frameworks
+- Technology Trends - innovation patterns, digital transformation
+- Economic Factors - market size, growth projections
+- Supply Chain Analysis - value chain, ecosystem relationships
+
+**Research Methodology:**
+
+- All claims verified against current public sources
+- Multi-source validation for critical domain claims
+- Confidence level framework for uncertain information
+- Comprehensive domain coverage with industry-specific insights
+
+**Scope Confirmed:** {{date}}
+```
+
+## SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+✅ Domain research scope clearly confirmed with user
+✅ All domain analysis areas identified and explained
+✅ Research methodology emphasized
+✅ [C] continue option presented and handled correctly
+✅ Scope confirmation documented when user proceeds
+✅ Proper routing to next domain research step
+
+## FAILURE MODES:
+
+❌ Not clearly confirming domain research scope with user
+❌ Missing critical domain analysis areas
+❌ Not explaining that web search is required for current facts
+❌ Not presenting [C] continue option
+❌ Proceeding without user scope confirmation
+❌ Not routing to next domain research step
+
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
+❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
+
+## NEXT STEP:
+
+After user selects 'C', load `./step-02-domain-analysis.md` to begin industry analysis.
+
+Remember: This is SCOPE CONFIRMATION ONLY - no actual domain research yet, just confirming the research approach and scope!
