-# Step 2B: Document Parity Check
-
-## STEP GOAL:
-
-Analyze non-standard PRD and identify gaps to achieve BMAD PRD parity, presenting user with options for how to proceed.
-
-## 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 Validation Architect and Quality Assurance Specialist
-- ✅ If you already have been given communication or persona patterns, continue to use those while playing this new role
-- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
-- ✅ You bring BMAD PRD standards expertise and gap analysis
-- ✅ User brings domain knowledge and PRD context
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus ONLY on analyzing gaps and estimating parity effort
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to perform other validation checks in this step
-- 💬 Approach: Systematic gap analysis with clear recommendations
-- 🚪 This is an optional branch step - user chooses next action
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Analyze each BMAD PRD section for gaps
-- 💾 Append parity analysis to validation report
-- 📖 Present options and await user decision
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to proceed without user selection
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Available context: Non-standard PRD from step 2, validation report in progress
-- Focus: Parity analysis only - what's missing, what's needed
-- Limits: Don't perform validation checks, don't auto-proceed
-- Dependencies: Step 2 classified PRD as non-standard and user chose parity check
-
-## MANDATORY SEQUENCE
-
-**CRITICAL:** Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise unless user explicitly requests a change.
-
-### 1. Analyze Each BMAD PRD Section
-
-For each of the 6 BMAD PRD core sections, analyze:
-
-**Executive Summary:**
-- Does PRD have vision/overview?
-- Is problem statement clear?
-- Are target users identified?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-**Success Criteria:**
-- Are measurable goals defined?
-- Is success clearly defined?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-**Product Scope:**
-- Is scope clearly defined?
-- Are in-scope items listed?
-- Are out-of-scope items listed?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-**User Journeys:**
-- Are user types/personas identified?
-- Are user flows documented?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-**Functional Requirements:**
-- Are features/capabilities listed?
-- Are requirements structured?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-**Non-Functional Requirements:**
-- Are quality attributes defined?
-- Are performance/security/etc. requirements documented?
-- Gap: [What's missing or incomplete]
-
-### 2. Estimate Effort to Reach Parity
-
-For each missing or incomplete section, estimate:
-
-**Effort Level:**
-- Minimal - Section exists but needs minor enhancements
-- Moderate - Section missing but content exists elsewhere in PRD
-- Significant - Section missing, requires new content creation
-
-**Total Parity Effort:**
-- Based on individual section estimates
-- Classify overall: Quick / Moderate / Substantial effort
-
-### 3. Report Parity Analysis to Validation Report
-
-Append to validation report:
-
-```markdown
-## Parity Analysis (Non-Standard PRD)

-### 5. Present MENU OPTIONS
-
-**[C] Continue Validation** - Proceed with validation using current structure
-**[E] Exit & Review** - Exit validation and review parity report
-**[S] Save & Exit** - Save parity report and exit
-
-#### EXECUTION RULES:
-
-- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input
-- Only proceed based on user selection
-
-#### Menu Handling Logic:
-
-- IF C (Continue): Display "Proceeding with validation..." then read fully and follow: {nextStepFile}
-- IF E (Exit): Display parity summary and exit validation
-- IF S (Save): Confirm saved, display summary, exit
-- IF Any other: help user respond, then redisplay menu

-
-## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
-
-### ✅ SUCCESS:
-
-- All 6 BMAD PRD sections analyzed for gaps
-- Effort estimates provided for each gap
-- Overall parity effort assessed correctly
-- Parity analysis reported to validation report
-- Clear summary presented to user
-- User can choose to continue validation, exit, or save report
-
-### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
-
-- Not analyzing all 6 sections systematically
-- Missing effort estimates
-- Not reporting parity analysis to validation report
-- Auto-proceeding without user decision
-- Unclear recommendations
-
-**Master Rule:** Parity check informs user of gaps and effort, but user decides whether to proceed with validation or address gaps first.

-## MANDATORY SEQUENCE
-
-**CRITICAL:** Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise unless user explicitly requests a change.
-
-### 1. Attempt Sub-Process Validation
-
-**Try to use Task tool to spawn a subprocess:**
-
-"Perform information density validation on this PRD:
-
-1. Load the PRD file
-2. Scan for the following anti-patterns:
-   - Conversational filler phrases (examples: 'The system will allow users to...', 'It is important to note that...', 'In order to')
-   - Wordy phrases (examples: 'Due to the fact that', 'In the event of', 'For the purpose of')
-   - Redundant phrases (examples: 'Future plans', 'Absolutely essential', 'Past history')
-3. Count violations by category with line numbers
-4. Classify severity: Critical (>10 violations), Warning (5-10), Pass (<5)
-
-Return structured findings with counts and examples."
-
-### 2. Graceful Degradation (if Task tool unavailable)
-
-If Task tool unavailable, perform analysis directly:
-
-**Scan for conversational filler patterns:**
-- "The system will allow users to..."
-- "It is important to note that..."
-- "In order to"
-- "For the purpose of"
-- "With regard to"
-- Count occurrences and note line numbers
-
-**Scan for wordy phrases:**
-- "Due to the fact that" (use "because")
-- "In the event of" (use "if")
-- "At this point in time" (use "now")
-- "In a manner that" (use "how")
-- Count occurrences and note line numbers
-
-**Scan for redundant phrases:**
-- "Future plans" (just "plans")
-- "Past history" (just "history")
-- "Absolutely essential" (just "essential")
-- "Completely finish" (just "finish")
-- Count occurrences and note line numbers
-
-### 3. Classify Severity
-
-**Calculate total violations:**
-- Conversational filler count
-- Wordy phrases count
-- Redundant phrases count
-- Total = sum of all categories
-
-**Determine severity:**
-- **Critical:** Total > 10 violations
-- **Warning:** Total 5-10 violations
-- **Pass:** Total < 5 violations
-
-### 4. Report Density Findings to Validation Report
-
-Append to validation report:
-
-```markdown
-## Information Density Validation
-
-**Anti-Pattern Violations:**
-
-**Conversational Filler:** {count} occurrences
-[If count > 0, list examples with line numbers]
-
-**Wordy Phrases:** {count} occurrences
-[If count > 0, list examples with line numbers]
-
-**Redundant Phrases:** {count} occurrences

-
-**Total Violations:** {total}
-
-**Severity Assessment:** [Critical/Warning/Pass]
-

-- Users: Who is it for?
-- Problem: What problem does it solve?
-- Features: What are the key capabilities?
-- Goals: What are the success criteria?
-- Differentiators: What makes it unique?
-
-**For each item, search PRD:**
-- Scan Executive Summary for vision
-- Check User Journeys or user personas
-- Look for problem statement
-- Review Functional Requirements for features
-- Check Success Criteria section
-- Search for differentiators
-
-**Classify coverage:**
-- **Fully Covered:** Content present and complete
-- **Partially Covered:** Content present but incomplete
-- **Not Found:** Content missing from PRD
-- **Intentionally Excluded:** Content explicitly out of scope
-
-### 4. Assess Coverage and Severity
-
-**For each gap (Partially Covered or Not Found):**
-- Is this Critical? (Core vision, primary users, main features)
-- Is this Moderate? (Secondary features, some goals)
-- Is this Informational? (Nice-to-have features, minor details)
-
-**Note:** Some exclusions may be intentional (valid scoping decisions)
