+# Step 6: Project Structure & Boundaries
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+
+- 📖 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
+- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between architectural peers
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+- 💬 FOCUS on defining complete project structure and clear boundaries
+- 🗺️ MAP requirements/epics to architectural components
+- ⚠️ ABSOLUTELY NO TIME ESTIMATES - AI development speed has fundamentally changed
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
+- 🗺️ Create complete project tree, not generic placeholders
+- ⚠️ Present A/P/C menu after generating project structure
+- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## COLLABORATION MENUS (A/P/C):
+
+This step will generate content and present choices:
+
+- **A (Advanced Elicitation)**: Use discovery protocols to explore innovative project organization approaches
+- **P (Party Mode)**: Bring multiple perspectives to evaluate project structure trade-offs
+- **C (Continue)**: Save the project structure and proceed to validation
+
+## PROTOCOL INTEGRATION:
+
+- When 'A' selected: Execute {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/tasks/advanced-elicitation.xml
+- When 'P' selected: Execute {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md
+- PROTOCOLS always return to display this step's A/P/C menu after the A or P have completed
+- User accepts/rejects protocol changes before proceeding
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- All previous architectural decisions are complete
+- Implementation patterns and consistency rules are defined
+- Focus on physical project structure and component boundaries
+- Map requirements to specific files and directories
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+Define the complete project structure and architectural boundaries based on all decisions made, creating a concrete implementation guide for AI agents.
+
+## PROJECT STRUCTURE SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Analyze Requirements Mapping
+
+Map project requirements to architectural components:
+
+**From Epics (if available):**
+"Epic: {{epic_name}} → Lives in {{module/directory/service}}"
+
+- User stories within the epic
+- Cross-epic dependencies
+- Shared components needed
+
+**From FR Categories (if no epics):**
+"FR Category: {{fr_category_name}} → Lives in {{module/directory/service}}"
+
+- Related functional requirements
+- Shared functionality across categories
+- Integration points between categories
+
+### 2. Define Project Directory Structure
+
+Based on technology stack and patterns, create the complete project structure:
+
+**Root Configuration Files:**
+
+- Package management files (package.json, requirements.txt, etc.)
+- Build and development configuration
+- Environment configuration files
+- CI/CD pipeline files
+- Documentation files
+
+**Source Code Organization:**
+
+- Application entry points
+- Core application structure
+- Feature/module organization
+- Shared utilities and libraries
+- Configuration and environment files
+
+**Test Organization:**
+
+- Unit test locations and structure
+- Integration test organization
+- End-to-end test structure
+- Test utilities and fixtures
+
+**Build and Distribution:**
+
+- Build output directories
+- Distribution files
+- Static assets
+- Documentation build
+
+### 3. Define Integration Boundaries
+
+Map how components communicate and where boundaries exist:
+
+**API Boundaries:**
+
+- External API endpoints
+- Internal service boundaries
+- Authentication and authorization boundaries
+- Data access layer boundaries
+
+**Component Boundaries:**
+
+- Frontend component communication patterns
+- State management boundaries
+- Service communication patterns
+- Event-driven integration points
+
+**Data Boundaries:**
+
+- Database schema boundaries
+- Data access patterns
+- Caching boundaries
+- External data integration points
+
+### 4. Create Complete Project Tree
+
+Generate a comprehensive directory structure showing all files and directories:
+
+**Technology-Specific Structure Examples:**
+
+**Next.js Full-Stack:**
+
+```

+
+### 5. Map Requirements to Structure
+
+Create explicit mapping from project requirements to specific files/directories:
+
+**Epic/Feature Mapping:**
+"Epic: User Management
+
+- Components: src/components/features/users/
+- Services: src/services/users/
+- API Routes: src/app/api/users/
+- Database: prisma/migrations/_*users*_
+- Tests: tests/features/users/"
+
+**Cross-Cutting Concerns:**
+"Authentication System
+
+- Components: src/components/auth/
+- Services: src/services/auth/
+- Middleware: src/middleware/auth.ts
+- Guards: src/guards/auth.guard.ts
+- Tests: tests/auth/"
+
+### 6. Generate Structure Content
+
+Prepare the content to append to the document:
+
+#### Content Structure:
+
+```markdown
+## Project Structure & Boundaries
+
+### Complete Project Directory Structure
+```
+
+{{complete_project_tree_with_all_files_and_directories}}
+
+```
+
+### Architectural Boundaries
+
+**API Boundaries:**
+{{api_boundary_definitions_and_endpoints}}
+
+**Component Boundaries:**
+{{component_communication_patterns_and_boundaries}}
+
+**Service Boundaries:**
+{{service_integration_patterns_and_boundaries}}
+
+**Data Boundaries:**
+{{data_access_patterns_and_boundaries}}
+
+### Requirements to Structure Mapping
+
+**Feature/Epic Mapping:**
+{{mapping_of_epics_or_features_to_specific_directories}}
+
+**Cross-Cutting Concerns:**
+{{mapping_of_shared_functionality_to_locations}}
+
+### Integration Points
+
+**Internal Communication:**
+{{how_components_within_the_project_communicate}}
+
+**External Integrations:**
+{{third_party_service_integration_points}}
+
+**Data Flow:**
+{{how_data_flows_through_the_architecture}}
+
+### File Organization Patterns
+
+**Configuration Files:**
+{{where_and_how_config_files_are_organized}}
+
+**Source Organization:**
+{{how_source_code_is_structured_and_organized}}
+
+**Test Organization:**
+{{how_tests_are_structured_and_organized}}
+
+**Asset Organization:**
+{{how_static_and_dynamic_assets_are_organized}}
+
+### Development Workflow Integration
+
+**Development Server Structure:**
+{{how_the_project_is organized_for_development}}
+
+**Build Process Structure:**
+{{how_the_build_process_uses_the_project_structure}}
+
+**Deployment Structure:**
+{{how_the_project_structure_supports_deployment}}
+```
+
+### 7. Present Content and Menu
+
+Show the generated project structure content and present choices:
+
+"I've created a complete project structure based on all our architectural decisions.
+
+**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
+
+[Show the complete markdown content from step 6]
+
+**What would you like to do?**
+[A] Advanced Elicitation - Explore innovative project organization approaches
+[P] Party Mode - Review structure from different development perspectives
+[C] Continue - Save this structure and move to architecture validation"
+
+### 8. Handle Menu Selection
+
+#### If 'A' (Advanced Elicitation):
+
+- Execute {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/tasks/advanced-elicitation.xml with current project structure
+- Process enhanced organizational insights that come back
+- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the project structure? (y/n)"
+- If yes: Update content, then return to A/P/C menu
+- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
+
+#### If 'P' (Party Mode):
+
+- Execute {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md with project structure context
+- Process collaborative insights about organization trade-offs
+- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the project structure? (y/n)"
+- If yes: Update content, then return to A/P/C menu
+- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
+
+#### If 'C' (Continue):
+
+- Append the final content to `{output_folder}/architecture.md`
+- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]`
+- Load `./step-07-validation.md`
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
+
+When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 6.
+
+## SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+✅ Complete project tree defined with all files and directories
+✅ All architectural boundaries clearly documented
+✅ Requirements/epics mapped to specific locations
+✅ Integration points and communication patterns defined
+✅ Project structure aligned with chosen technology stack
+✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
+✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
+
+## FAILURE MODES:
+
+❌ Creating generic placeholder structure instead of specific, complete tree
+❌ Not mapping requirements to specific files and directories
+❌ Missing important integration boundaries
+❌ Not considering the chosen technology stack in structure design
+❌ Not defining how components communicate across boundaries
+❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
+
+❌ **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' and content is saved to document, load `./step-07-validation.md` to validate architectural coherence and completeness.
+
+Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-07 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!
