+
+**Progress: Step 3 of 11** - Next: User Journey Mapping
+
+## 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 PM peers
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+- 💬 FOCUS on defining what winning looks like for this product
+- 🎯 COLLABORATIVE discovery, not assumption-based goal setting
+- ✅ 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 A/P/C menu after generating success criteria content
+- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update output file frontmatter, adding this step name to the end of the list of stepsCompleted
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
+- Executive Summary and Project Classification already exist in document
+- Input documents from step-01 are available (product briefs, research, brainstorming)
+- No additional data files needed for this step
+- Focus on measurable, specific success criteria
+- LEVERAGE existing input documents to inform success criteria
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+Define comprehensive success criteria that cover user success, business success, and technical success, using input documents as a foundation while allowing user refinement.
+
+## SUCCESS DISCOVERY SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Begin Success Definition Conversation
+
+**Check Input Documents for Success Indicators:**
+Analyze product brief, research, and brainstorming documents for success criteria already mentioned.
+
+**If Input Documents Contain Success Criteria:**
+Guide user to refine existing success criteria:
+- Acknowledge what's already documented in their materials
+- Extract key success themes from brief, research, and brainstorming
+- Help user identify gaps and areas for expansion
+- Probe for specific, measurable outcomes: When do users feel delighted/relieved/empowered?
+- Ask about emotional success moments and completion scenarios
+- Explore what "worth it" means beyond what's already captured
+
+**If No Success Criteria in Input Documents:**
+Start with user-centered success exploration:
+- Guide conversation toward defining what "worth it" means for users
+- Ask about the moment users realize their problem is solved
+- Explore specific user outcomes and emotional states
+- Identify success "aha!" moments and completion scenarios
+- Focus on user experience of success first
+
+### 2. Explore User Success Metrics
+
+Listen for specific user outcomes and help make them measurable:
+
+- Guide from vague to specific: NOT "users are happy" → "users complete [key action] within [timeframe]"
+- Ask about emotional success: "When do they feel delighted/relieved/empowered?"
+- Identify success moments: "What's the 'aha!' moment?"
+- Define completion scenarios: "What does 'done' look like for the user?"
+
+### 3. Define Business Success
+
+Transition to business metrics:
+- Guide conversation to business perspective on success
+- Explore timelines: What does 3-month success look like? 12-month success?
+- Identify key business metrics: revenue, user growth, engagement, or other measures?
+- Ask what specific metric would indicate "this is working"
+- Understand business success from their perspective
+
+### 4. Challenge Vague Metrics
+
+Push for specificity on business metrics:
+
+- "10,000 users" → "What kind of users? Doing what?"
+- "99.9% uptime" → "What's the real concern - data loss? Failed payments?"
+- "Fast" → "How fast, and what specifically needs to be fast?"
+- "Good adoption" → "What percentage adoption by when?"
+
+### 5. Connect to Product Differentiator
+
+Tie success metrics back to what makes the product special:
+- Connect success criteria to the product's unique differentiator
+- Ensure metrics reflect the specific value proposition
+- Adapt success criteria to domain context:
+  - Consumer: User love, engagement, retention
+  - B2B: ROI, efficiency, adoption
+  - Developer tools: Developer experience, community
+  - Regulated: Compliance, safety, validation
+  - GovTech: Government compliance, accessibility, procurement
+
+### 6. Smart Scope Negotiation
+
+Guide scope definition through success lens:
+- Help user distinguish MVP (must work to be useful) from growth (competitive) and vision (dream)
+- Guide conversation through three scope levels:
+  1. MVP: What's essential for proving the concept?
+  2. Growth: What makes it competitive?
+  3. Vision: What's the dream version?
+- Challenge scope creep conversationally: Could this wait until after launch? Is this essential for MVP?
+- For complex domains: Ensure compliance minimums are included in MVP
+
+### 7. Generate Success Criteria Content
+
+Prepare the content to append to the document:
+
+#### Content Structure:
+
+When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
+
+```markdown
+## Success Criteria
+
+### User Success
+
+[Content about user success criteria based on conversation]
+
+### Business Success
+
+[Content about business success metrics based on conversation]
+
+### Technical Success
+
+[Content about technical success requirements based on conversation]
+
+### Measurable Outcomes
+
+[Content about specific measurable outcomes based on conversation]
+
+## Product Scope
+
+### MVP - Minimum Viable Product
+
+[Content about MVP scope based on conversation]
+
+### Growth Features (Post-MVP)
+
+[Content about growth features based on conversation]
+
+### Vision (Future)
+
+[Content about future vision based on conversation]
+```
+
+### 8. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Present the success criteria content for user review, then display menu:
+
+- Show the drafted success criteria and scope definition (using structure from section 7)
+- Ask if they'd like to refine further, get other perspectives, or proceed
+- Present menu options naturally as part of the conversation
+
+Display: "**Select:** [A] Advanced Elicitation [P] Party Mode [C] Continue to User Journey Mapping (Step 4 of 11)"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+- IF A: Read fully and follow: {advancedElicitationTask} with the current success criteria content, process the enhanced success metrics that come back, ask user "Accept these improvements to the success criteria? (y/n)", if yes update content with improvements then redisplay menu, if no keep original content then redisplay menu
+- IF P: Read fully and follow: {partyModeWorkflow} with the current success criteria, process the collaborative improvements to metrics and scope, ask user "Accept these changes to the success criteria? (y/n)", if yes update content with improvements then redisplay menu, if no keep original content then redisplay menu
+- IF C: Append the final content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter by adding this step name to the end of the stepsCompleted array, then read fully and follow: {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other: help user respond, then redisplay menu
+
+#### 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
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
+
+When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 7.
+
+## SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+✅ User success criteria clearly identified and made measurable
+✅ Business success metrics defined with specific targets
+✅ Success criteria connected to product differentiator
+✅ Scope properly negotiated (MVP, Growth, Vision)
+✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
+✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
+
+## FAILURE MODES:
+
+❌ Accepting vague success metrics without pushing for specificity
+❌ Not connecting success criteria back to product differentiator
+❌ Missing scope negotiation and leaving it undefined
+❌ Generating content without real user input on what success looks like
+❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
+❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
+
+❌ **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
+
+## DOMAIN CONSIDERATIONS:
+
+If working in regulated domains (healthcare, fintech, govtech):
+
+- Include compliance milestones in success criteria
+- Add regulatory approval timelines to MVP scope
+- Consider audit requirements as technical success metrics
+
+## NEXT STEP:
+
+After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-04-journeys.md` to map user journeys.
+
+Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-04 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!

+- 💬 FOCUS on mapping ALL user types that interact with the system
+- 🎯 CRITICAL: No journey = no functional requirements = product doesn't exist
+- ✅ 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 A/P/C menu after generating journey content
+- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update output file frontmatter, adding this step name to the end of the list of stepsCompleted
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
+- Success criteria and scope already defined
+- Input documents from step-01 are available (product briefs with user personas)
+- Every human interaction with the system needs a journey
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+Create compelling narrative user journeys that leverage existing personas from product briefs and identify additional user types needed for comprehensive coverage.
+
+## JOURNEY MAPPING SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Leverage Existing Users & Identify Additional Types
+
+**Check Input Documents for Existing Personas:**
+Analyze product brief, research, and brainstorming documents for user personas already defined.
+
+**If User Personas Exist in Input Documents:**
+Guide user to build on existing personas:
+- Acknowledge personas found in their product brief
+- Extract key persona details and backstories
+- Leverage existing insights about their needs
+- Prompt to identify additional user types beyond those documented
+- Suggest additional user types based on product context (admins, moderators, support, API consumers, internal ops)
+- Ask what additional user types should be considered
+
+**If No Personas in Input Documents:**
+Start with comprehensive user type discovery:
+- Guide exploration of ALL people who interact with the system
+- Consider beyond primary users: admins, moderators, support staff, API consumers, internal ops
+- Ask what user types should be mapped for this specific product
+- Ensure comprehensive coverage of all system interactions
+
+### 2. Create Narrative Story-Based Journeys
+
+For each user type, create compelling narrative journeys that tell their story:
+
+#### Narrative Journey Creation Process:
+
+**If Using Existing Persona from Input Documents:**
+Guide narrative journey creation:
+- Use persona's existing backstory from brief
+- Explore how the product changes their life/situation
+- Craft journey narrative: where do we meet them, how does product help them write their next chapter?
+
+**If Creating New Persona:**
+Guide persona creation with story framework:
+- Name: realistic name and personality
+- Situation: What's happening in their life/work that creates need?
+- Goal: What do they desperately want to achieve?
+- Obstacle: What's standing in their way?
+- Solution: How does the product solve their story?
+
+**Story-Based Journey Mapping:**
+
+Guide narrative journey creation using story structure:
+- **Opening Scene**: Where/how do we meet them? What's their current pain?
+- **Rising Action**: What steps do they take? What do they discover?
+- **Climax**: Critical moment where product delivers real value
+- **Resolution**: How does their situation improve? What's their new reality?
+
+Encourage narrative format with specific user details, emotional journey, and clear before/after contrast
+
+### 3. Guide Journey Exploration
+
+For each journey, facilitate detailed exploration:
+- What happens at each step specifically?
+- What could go wrong? What's the recovery path?
+- What information do they need to see/hear?
+- What's their emotional state at each point?
+- Where does this journey succeed or fail?
+
+### 4. Connect Journeys to Requirements
+
+After each journey, explicitly state:
+- This journey reveals requirements for specific capability areas
+- Help user see how different journeys create different feature sets
+- Connect journey needs to concrete capabilities (onboarding, dashboards, notifications, etc.)
+
+### 5. Aim for Comprehensive Coverage
+
+Guide toward complete journey set:
+
+- **Primary user** - happy path (core experience)
+- **Primary user** - edge case (different goal, error recovery)
+- **Secondary user** (admin, moderator, support, etc.)
+- **API consumer** (if applicable)
+
+Ask if additional journeys are needed to cover uncovered user types
+
+### 6. Generate User Journey Content
+
+Prepare the content to append to the document:
+
+#### Content Structure:
+
+When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
+
+```markdown
+## User Journeys
+
+[All journey narratives based on conversation]
+
+### Journey Requirements Summary
+
+[Summary of capabilities revealed by journeys based on conversation]
+```
+
+### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Present the user journey content for review, then display menu:
+- Show the mapped user journeys (using structure from section 6)
+- Highlight how each journey reveals different capabilities
+- Ask if they'd like to refine further, get other perspectives, or proceed
+- Present menu options naturally as part of conversation
+
+Display: "**Select:** [A] Advanced Elicitation [P] Party Mode [C] Continue to Domain Requirements (Step 5 of 11)"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+- IF A: Read fully and follow: {advancedElicitationTask} with the current journey content, process the enhanced journey insights that come back, ask user "Accept these improvements to the user journeys? (y/n)", if yes update content with improvements then redisplay menu, if no keep original content then redisplay menu
+- IF P: Read fully and follow: {partyModeWorkflow} with the current journeys, process the collaborative journey improvements and additions, ask user "Accept these changes to the user journeys? (y/n)", if yes update content with improvements then redisplay menu, if no keep original content then redisplay menu
+- IF C: Append the final content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter by adding this step name to the end of the stepsCompleted array, then read fully and follow: {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other: help user respond, then redisplay menu
+
+#### 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
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
+
+When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 6.
+
+## SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+✅ Existing personas from product briefs leveraged when available
+✅ All user types identified (not just primary users)
+✅ Rich narrative storytelling for each persona and journey
+✅ Complete story-based journey mapping with emotional arc
+✅ Journey requirements clearly connected to capabilities needed
+✅ Minimum 3-4 compelling narrative journeys covering different user types
+✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
+✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
+
+## FAILURE MODES:
+
+❌ Ignoring existing personas from product briefs
+❌ Only mapping primary user journeys and missing secondary users
+❌ Creating generic journeys without rich persona details and narrative
+❌ Missing emotional storytelling elements that make journeys compelling
+❌ Missing critical decision points and failure scenarios
+❌ Not connecting journeys to required capabilities
+❌ Not having enough journey diversity (admin, support, API, etc.)
+❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
+❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
+
+❌ **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
+
+## JOURNEY TYPES TO ENSURE:
+
+**Minimum Coverage:**
+
+1. **Primary User - Success Path**: Core experience journey
+2. **Primary User - Edge Case**: Error recovery, alternative goals
+3. **Admin/Operations User**: Management, configuration, monitoring
+4. **Support/Troubleshooting**: Help, investigation, issue resolution
+5. **API/Integration** (if applicable): Developer/technical user journey
+
+## NEXT STEP:
+
+After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-05-domain.md`.
+
+Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-05 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!

+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+For complex domains only that have a mapping in {domainComplexityCSV}, explore domain-specific constraints, compliance requirements, and technical considerations that shape the product.
+
+## 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 the entire file is read
+- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between PM peers
+- 📋 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 PM facilitator collaborating with an expert peer
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 This step is OPTIONAL - only needed for complex domains
+- 🚫 SKIP if domain complexity is "low" from step-02
+- 💬 APPROACH: Natural conversation to discover domain-specific needs
+- 🎯 Focus on constraints, compliance, and domain patterns
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Check domain complexity from step-02 classification first
+- ⚠️ If complexity is "low", offer to skip this step
+- ⚠️ Present A/P/C menu after domain requirements defined (or skipped)
+- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- 📖 Update output file frontmatter, adding this step name to the end of the list of stepsCompleted
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Domain classification from step-02 is available
+- If complexity is low, this step may be skipped
+- Domain CSV data provides complexity reference
+- Focus on domain-specific constraints, not general requirements
+
+## YOUR TASK:
+
+For complex domains, explore what makes this domain special:
+- **Compliance requirements** - regulations, standards, certifications
+- **Technical constraints** - security, privacy, integration requirements
+- **Domain patterns** - common patterns, best practices, anti-patterns
+- **Risks and mitigations** - what could go wrong, how to prevent it
+
+## DOMAIN DISCOVERY SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Check Domain Complexity
+
+**Review classification from step-02:**
+
+- What's the domain complexity level? (low/medium/high)
+- What's the specific domain? (healthcare, fintech, education, etc.)
+
+**If complexity is LOW:**
+
+Offer to skip:
+"The domain complexity from our discovery is low. We may not need deep domain-specific requirements. Would you like to:
+- [C] Skip this step and move to Innovation
+- [D] Do domain exploration anyway"
+
+**If complexity is MEDIUM or HIGH:**
+
+Proceed with domain exploration.
+
+### 2. Load Domain Reference Data
+
+**Attempt subprocess data lookup:**
+
+"Your task: Lookup data in {domainComplexityCSV}
+
+**Search criteria:**
+- Find row where domain matches {{domainFromStep02}}
+
+**Return format:**
+Return ONLY the matching row as a YAML-formatted object with these fields:
+domain, complexity, typical_concerns, compliance_requirements
+
+**Do NOT return the entire CSV - only the matching row.**"
+
+**Graceful degradation (if Task tool unavailable):**
+- Load the CSV file directly
+- Find the matching row manually
+- Extract required fields
+- Understand typical concerns and compliance requirements
+
+### 3. Explore Domain-Specific Concerns
+
+**Start with what you know:**
+
+Acknowledge the domain and explore what makes it complex:
+- What regulations apply? (HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, SOX, etc.)
+- What standards matter? (ISO, NIST, domain-specific standards)
+- What certifications are needed? (security, privacy, domain-specific)
+- What integrations are required? (EMR systems, payment processors, etc.)
+
+**Explore technical constraints:**
+- Security requirements (encryption, audit logs, access control)
+- Privacy requirements (data handling, consent, retention)
+- Performance requirements (real-time, batch, latency)
+- Availability requirements (uptime, disaster recovery)
+
+### 4. Document Domain Requirements
+
+**Structure the requirements around key concerns:**
+
+```markdown
+### Compliance & Regulatory
+- [Specific requirements]
+
+### Technical Constraints
+- [Security, privacy, performance needs]
+
+### Integration Requirements
+- [Required systems and data flows]
+
+### Risk Mitigations
+- [Domain-specific risks and how to address them]
+```
+
+### 5. Validate Completeness
+
+**Check with the user:**
+
+"Are there other domain-specific concerns we should consider? For [this domain], what typically gets overlooked?"
+
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select:** [A] Advanced Elicitation [P] Party Mode [C] Continue - Save and Proceed to Innovation (Step 6 of 13)"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+- IF A: Read fully and follow: {advancedElicitationTask}, and when finished redisplay the menu
+- IF P: Read fully and follow: {partyModeWorkflow}, and when finished redisplay the menu
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter, then read fully and follow: {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#n-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
+
+## APPEND TO DOCUMENT
+
+When user selects 'C', append to `{outputFile}`:
+
+```markdown
+## Domain-Specific Requirements
+
+{{discovered domain requirements}}
+```
+
+If step was skipped, append nothing and proceed.
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN [C continue option] is selected and [content saved or skipped], will you then read fully and follow: `{nextStepFile}` to explore innovation.
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
+
+### ✅ SUCCESS:
+
+- Domain complexity checked before proceeding
+- Offered to skip if complexity is low
+- Natural conversation exploring domain concerns
+- Compliance, technical, and integration requirements identified
+- Domain-specific risks documented with mitigations
+- User validated completeness
+- Content properly saved (or step skipped) when C selected
+
+### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
+
+- Not checking domain complexity first
+- Not offering to skip for low-complexity domains
+- Missing critical compliance requirements
+- Not exploring technical constraints
+- Not asking about domain-specific risks
+- Being generic instead of domain-specific
+- Proceeding without user validation
+
+**Master Rule:** This step is OPTIONAL for simple domains. For complex domains, focus on compliance, constraints, and domain patterns. Natural conversation, not checklists.
