 # Checklist Validation Task
 
 This task provides instructions for validating documentation against checklists. The agent MUST follow these instructions to ensure thorough and systematic validation of documents.
 
+## Context
+
+The BMAD Method uses various checklists to ensure quality and completeness of different artifacts. Each checklist contains embedded prompts and instructions to guide the LLM through thorough validation and advanced elicitation. The checklists automatically identify their required artifacts and guide the validation process.
+
 ## Available Checklists
 
-If the user asks or does not specify a specific checklist, list the checklists available to the agent persona. If the task is being run not with a specific agent, tell the user to check the .bmad-core/checklists folder to select the appropriate one to run.

-# Validate Next Story Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-To comprehensively validate a story draft before implementation begins, ensuring it is complete, accurate, and provides sufficient context for successful development. This task identifies issues and gaps that need to be addressed, preventing hallucinations and ensuring implementation readiness.
-
-## SEQUENTIAL Task Execution (Do not proceed until current Task is complete)
-
-### 0. Load Core Configuration and Inputs
-
-- Load `.bmad-core/core-config.yaml` from the project root
-- If the file does not exist, HALT and inform the user: "core-config.yaml not found. This file is required for story validation."
-- Extract key configurations: `devStoryLocation`, `prd.*`, `architecture.*`
-- Identify and load the following inputs:
-  - **Story file**: The drafted story to validate (provided by user or discovered in `devStoryLocation`)
-  - **Parent epic**: The epic containing this story's requirements
-  - **Architecture documents**: Based on configuration (sharded or monolithic)
-  - **Story template**: `bmad-core/templates/story-tmpl.md` for completeness validation
-
-### 1. Template Completeness Validation
-
-- Load `bmad-core/templates/story-tmpl.md` and extract all section headings from the template
-- **Missing sections check**: Compare story sections against template sections to verify all required sections are present
-- **Placeholder validation**: Ensure no template placeholders remain unfilled (e.g., `{{EpicNum}}`, `{{role}}`, `_TBD_`)
-- **Agent section verification**: Confirm all sections from template exist for future agent use
-- **Structure compliance**: Verify story follows template structure and formatting
-
-### 2. File Structure and Source Tree Validation
-
-- **File paths clarity**: Are new/existing files to be created/modified clearly specified?
-- **Source tree relevance**: Is relevant project structure included in Dev Notes?
-- **Directory structure**: Are new directories/components properly located according to project structure?
-- **File creation sequence**: Do tasks specify where files should be created in logical order?
-- **Path accuracy**: Are file paths consistent with project structure from architecture docs?
-
-### 3. UI/Frontend Completeness Validation (if applicable)
-
-- **Component specifications**: Are UI components sufficiently detailed for implementation?
-- **Styling/design guidance**: Is visual implementation guidance clear?
-- **User interaction flows**: Are UX patterns and behaviors specified?
-- **Responsive/accessibility**: Are these considerations addressed if required?
-- **Integration points**: Are frontend-backend integration points clear?
-
-### 4. Acceptance Criteria Satisfaction Assessment
-
-- **AC coverage**: Will all acceptance criteria be satisfied by the listed tasks?
-- **AC testability**: Are acceptance criteria measurable and verifiable?
-- **Missing scenarios**: Are edge cases or error conditions covered?
-- **Success definition**: Is "done" clearly defined for each AC?
-- **Task-AC mapping**: Are tasks properly linked to specific acceptance criteria?
-
-### 5. Validation and Testing Instructions Review
-
-- **Test approach clarity**: Are testing methods clearly specified?
-- **Test scenarios**: Are key test cases identified?
-- **Validation steps**: Are acceptance criteria validation steps clear?
-- **Testing tools/frameworks**: Are required testing tools specified?
-- **Test data requirements**: Are test data needs identified?
-
-### 6. Security Considerations Assessment (if applicable)
-
-- **Security requirements**: Are security needs identified and addressed?
-- **Authentication/authorization**: Are access controls specified?
-- **Data protection**: Are sensitive data handling requirements clear?
-- **Vulnerability prevention**: Are common security issues addressed?
-- **Compliance requirements**: Are regulatory/compliance needs addressed?
-
-### 7. Tasks/Subtasks Sequence Validation
-
-- **Logical order**: Do tasks follow proper implementation sequence?
-- **Dependencies**: Are task dependencies clear and correct?
-- **Granularity**: Are tasks appropriately sized and actionable?
-- **Completeness**: Do tasks cover all requirements and acceptance criteria?
-- **Blocking issues**: Are there any tasks that would block others?
-
-### 8. Anti-Hallucination Verification
-
-- **Source verification**: Every technical claim must be traceable to source documents
-- **Architecture alignment**: Dev Notes content matches architecture specifications
-- **No invented details**: Flag any technical decisions not supported by source documents
-- **Reference accuracy**: Verify all source references are correct and accessible
-- **Fact checking**: Cross-reference claims against epic and architecture documents
-
-### 9. Dev Agent Implementation Readiness
-
-- **Self-contained context**: Can the story be implemented without reading external docs?
-- **Clear instructions**: Are implementation steps unambiguous?
-- **Complete technical context**: Are all required technical details present in Dev Notes?
-- **Missing information**: Identify any critical information gaps
-- **Actionability**: Are all tasks actionable by a development agent?
-
-### 10. Generate Validation Report
-
-Provide a structured validation report including:
-
-#### Template Compliance Issues
-
-- Missing sections from story template
-- Unfilled placeholders or template variables
-- Structural formatting issues
-
-#### Critical Issues (Must Fix - Story Blocked)
-
-- Missing essential information for implementation
-- Inaccurate or unverifiable technical claims
-- Incomplete acceptance criteria coverage
-- Missing required sections
-
-#### Should-Fix Issues (Important Quality Improvements)
-
-- Unclear implementation guidance
-- Missing security considerations
-- Task sequencing problems
-- Incomplete testing instructions
-
-#### Nice-to-Have Improvements (Optional Enhancements)
-
-- Additional context that would help implementation
-- Clarifications that would improve efficiency
-- Documentation improvements
-
-#### Anti-Hallucination Findings
-
-- Unverifiable technical claims
-- Missing source references
-- Inconsistencies with architecture documents
-- Invented libraries, patterns, or standards
-
-#### Final Assessment
-
-- **GO**: Story is ready for implementation
-- **NO-GO**: Story requires fixes before implementation
-- **Implementation Readiness Score**: 1-10 scale
-- **Confidence Level**: High/Medium/Low for successful implementation
