+# Step 1 — Discover Project Artifacts
+
+Search the project for the following artifacts. Communicate in {communication_language}. Inform {user_name} which artifacts were found and which are missing.
+
+| Priority | Artifact | Search Pattern |
+|----------|----------|----------------|
+| Required | Architecture | `**/architecture.md`, `**/architecture-*.md` |
+| Required | Epics | `**/epics*.md`, `**/epic-*.md` |
+| Required | User Stories | `**/stories/*.md`, `**/story-*.md`, `**/user-stories*.md` |
+| Recommended | PRD | `**/prd.md`, `**/prd-*.md` |
+| Optional | UX Designs | `**/ux-design*.md`, `**/ux-*.md` |
+| Optional | Product Brief | `**/product-brief*.md` |
+
+If **required** artifacts are missing, warn the user and ask whether to proceed with available data or stop.
+
+## Document Dependencies
+
+The SDD is a **per-CSCI document** that designs the internal structure of a CSCI against its requirements. It MUST be generated after the SRS (which defines what the CSCI must do) and the SSDD (which defines the CSCI boundaries).
+
+| Predecessor | Relationship | Search Pattern |
+|-------------|-------------|----------------|
+| SRS (Software Requirements Specification) | **Required** — provides the CSCI requirements this SDD designs against | `**/SRS.md`, `**/SRS-*.md` |
+| SSDD (System/Subsystem Design Description) | **Required** — defines CSCI boundaries, system-wide design decisions, and allocated requirements | `**/SSDD.md` |
+| SSS (System/Subsystem Specification) | Optional — provides system-level requirements context | `**/SSS.md` |
+
+If the SRS has NOT been generated yet, **alert {user_name}**: "The SRS has not been generated yet. The SDD designs the internal structure of a CSCI against the requirements defined in its SRS. Would you like to proceed without the SRS, or generate the SRS first?"
+
+If the SSDD has NOT been generated yet, **alert {user_name}**: "The SSDD has not been generated yet. The SDD needs the SSDD to understand CSCI boundaries and system-wide design decisions. Would you like to proceed without the SSDD, or generate the SSDD first?"
+
+If predecessor documents exist, they MUST be loaded and used as primary inputs. The SDD should reference them in Section 2 and trace design decisions to SRS requirements.
+
+## CSCI Scoping
+
+Ask {user_name}: **"Which CSCI is this SDD for?"**
+
+If the SSDD exists, present the list of CSCIs defined in it and ask the user to select one. The SDD will describe the design of ONLY the selected CSCI — its internal CSCs (Computer Software Components) and software units.
+
+If generating SDD documents for multiple CSCIs, generate them one at a time, each as a separate document.
+
+## Source Mapping
+
+For the selected CSCI, the agent must:
+1. From the **SSDD**: Extract the CSCI's allocated system requirements, its CSCs, and the system-wide design decisions that constrain it
+2. From the **SRS**: Extract all CSCI requirements (capabilities, interfaces, quality factors, constraints) — these are what the SDD must design against
+3. From the **Architecture**: Extract the internal structure, technology stack, patterns, and integration approach for this CSCI's components
+4. From **Epics/Stories**: Extract detailed behavioral specifications, acceptance criteria, algorithms, business rules, and processing logic that inform the detailed design (Section 5)
+
+---
+
+**CONFIRMATION GATE**: Present the list of discovered artifacts and the selected CSCI to the user. Wait for the user to confirm before proceeding to the next step.

+| Version | Date | Author | Changes |
+|---------|------|--------|---------|
+| 1.0 | {date} | Agent ({model}) | Initial document generation |
+```
+
+## Section 1: Scope
+- **1.1 Identification**: Identify the CSCI by name, version, and project-unique identifier (as assigned in the SSDD)
+- **1.2 System overview**: Summarize the system and this CSCI's role within it, referencing the SSDD
+- **1.3 Document overview**: Describe this SDD document's purpose and contents
+
+## Section 2: Referenced documents
+- List all predecessor MIL-STD-498 documents (SSDD, SRS, SSS) and project artifacts used. Include number, title, revision, and date
+
+## Section 3: CSCI-wide design decisions
+
+**CRITICAL BEHAVIORAL GUIDANCE**: Like the SSDD, this section describes the CSCI's behavioral design — how it will behave from a user's point of view, ignoring internal implementation. Follow these rules:
+
+1. **Requirements-driven**: Every design decision MUST cite the specific SRS requirement(s) it satisfies
+2. **Behavioral, not implementation**: Describe patterns and approaches first, then technology choices parenthetically if essential
+3. **State-dependent decisions**: If a design decision depends on CSCI states or modes, indicate this dependency
+
+Document the following CSCI-wide design decisions (items a through e per the DID):
+
+- **a. CSCI behavioral design**: How the CSCI behaves in response to inputs and conditions — actions, response times, algorithms/rules, error handling. Describe from the user's perspective. Reference SRS capability requirements (3.2.x)
+- **b. Database/data file design**: How databases and data files within this CSCI appear to users and external systems. Reference SRS internal data requirements (3.5). If Database Design Descriptions (DBDDs) exist, they may be referenced
+- **c. Safety, security, privacy**: Selected approaches to meeting safety, security, and privacy requirements for this CSCI. Place in **separate subparagraphs** for critical requirements. Reference SRS sections 3.7, 3.8
+- **d. Other CSCI-wide design decisions**: Flexibility, availability, maintainability approaches. Rationale for architectural patterns selected. Reference SRS quality factors (3.11) and design constraints (3.12)
+- **e. Design and implementation standards**: Standards to be followed for design, coding, testing (reference SDP if available)
+
+## Section 4: CSCI architectural design
+
+- **4.1 CSCI components** (items a through f — all are required):
+
+  **a.** Identify all CSCs (Computer Software Components) within this CSCI — modules, packages, services, libraries. Each CSC shall have a project-unique identifier. Also identify software units within CSCs where applicable.
+
+  **b.** Show static ("consists of") relationships using component/class/package diagrams. Multiple relationship views may be presented.
+
+  **c.** State each CSC's purpose and the SRS requirements allocated to it. (Alternatively, allocation may be provided in Section 6.a.)
+
+  **d.** Identify each CSC's development status: new development, existing reuse as-is, existing design reuse, reengineering, etc. For existing components, provide identifying information.
+
+  **e.** Describe **resource utilization** — allocation of computer hardware resources (processor capacity, memory, I/O, storage) to each CSC. State conditions under which utilization will be measured. (This differs from SSDD 4.1.e which describes hardware; here it's about utilization allocation.)
+
+  **f.** Describe the CSCI's **program library** — contents including computer files, data files, program files, and their relationships.
+
+- **4.2 Concept of execution**:
+  - Describe dynamic relationships between CSCs — how they interact during operation
+  - Include: execution flow, data flow, state transitions, timing/sequencing, priorities, interrupt handling, concurrent execution, dynamic allocation/deallocation, exception handling
+  - Use sequence diagrams, state transition diagrams, or timing diagrams where helpful
+
+- **4.3 Interface design**:
+  - **4.3.1 Interface identification and diagrams**: List all interfaces (between CSCs and with external entities) with project-unique identifiers. Identify fixed vs. developing interfaces. Provide interface diagrams.
+  - **4.3.x (per interface)**: For each interface, document as applicable:
+    - **a.** Priority assigned to the interface
+    - **b.** Type of interface (real-time data transfer, storage-and-retrieval, etc.)
+    - **c.** Data elements: names/identifiers, data types, sizes/formats, units, ranges, accuracy/precision, timing/frequency constraints, security constraints, sources and recipients
+    - **d.** Data element assemblies: records, messages, data structures — names, structure, medium, relationships, constraints
+    - **e.** Communication methods: links/media, message formatting, flow control, data transfer rates, routing
+    - **f.** Protocols: priority/layer, packeting, error control/recovery, synchronization
+    - **g.** Physical compatibility considerations
+
+## Section 5: CSCI detailed design
+
+**This is the most important section of the SDD.** For each software unit identified in Section 4.1, provide a detailed design description. Organize as subsections (5.x per CSC, or 5.x per software unit):
+
+For each software unit (5.x), document the following items (a through f per the DID):
+
+- **a. Unit design decisions**: Design decisions specific to this unit, including algorithms, processing logic, data transformations, and business rules. **Extract from Epics and User Stories** — map Story acceptance criteria to specific processing logic. Reference the SRS requirements this unit satisfies.
+- **b. Design constraints**: Any constraints on the unit's design imposed by the CSCI-wide decisions, standards, or external interfaces
+- **c. Programming language**: If different from the CSCI-wide language specified in Section 3.e
+- **d. Control flow / logic description**: Describe the unit's control logic — how it processes inputs, makes decisions, handles conditions. Use flowcharts, pseudocode, or decision tables where helpful. Map from Story acceptance criteria and business rules.
+- **e. Data elements and structures**: Internal data elements, record layouts, data structures, file formats used by the unit
+- **f. Restrictions and limitations**: Any restrictions on the unit's use, dependencies, known limitations, or assumptions
+
+## Section 6: Requirements traceability
+- **6.a**: Map each CSC/software unit to the SRS requirements it addresses
+- **6.b**: Map each SRS requirement to the CSCs/units that implement it
+- Ensure every SRS requirement allocated to this CSCI is accounted for in both directions
+
+## Section 7: Notes
+- Alphabetical listing of all acronyms, abbreviations, and their meanings
+- Glossary of design terms and definitions

+
+This section shall be divided into paragraphs as needed to present CSCI-wide design decisions, that is, decisions about the CSCI's behavioral design (how it will behave, from a user's point of view, in meeting its requirements, ignoring internal implementation) and other decisions affecting the selection and design of the software components (e.g., Computer Software Components (CSCs)) that make up the CSCI. If all such decisions are explicit in the CSCI requirements or are deferred to the design of the CSCI's software components, this section shall so state. Design decisions that respond to requirements designated critical, such as those for safety, security, or privacy, shall be placed in separate subparagraphs. If a design decision depends upon CSCI states or modes, this dependency shall be indicated. Design conventions needed to understand the design shall be presented or referenced. Examples of CSCI-wide design decisions are the following:
+
+a. Design decisions regarding inputs the CSCI will accept and outputs it will produce, including interfaces with other systems, HWCIs, CSCIs, and users (4.3.x of this DID identifies topics to be considered in this description). If part or all of this information is given in Interface Design Descriptions (IDDs), they may be referenced.
+
+b. Design decisions on CSCI behavior in response to each input or condition, including actions the CSCI will perform, response times and other performance characteristics, description of physical systems modeled, selected equations/algorithms/rules, and handling of unallowed inputs or conditions.

+
+This section shall be divided into the following paragraphs to describe the CSCI architectural design. If part or all of the design depends upon CSCI states or modes, this dependency shall be indicated. If design information falls into more than one paragraph, it may be presented once and referenced from the other paragraphs. Design conventions needed to understand the design shall be presented or referenced.
+
+## 4.1 CSCI components.
+
+This paragraph shall:
+
+a. Identify the software components of the CSCI (Computer Software Components (CSCs) or other decomposition entities). Each component shall be assigned a project-unique identifier. Note: A database may be treated as a CSC or as part of a CSC.
+
+b. Show the static (such as "consists of") relationship(s) of the components. Multiple relationships may be presented, depending on the selected design methodology.
+
+c. State the purpose of each component and identify the CSCI requirements and CSCI-wide design decisions allocated to it. (Alternatively, the allocation of requirements may be provided in 6.a.)
+
+d. Identify each component's development status/type, if known (such as new development, existing component to be reused as is, existing design to be reused as is, existing design or component to be reengineered, component to be developed for reuse, component planned for Build N, etc.) For existing design or components, the description shall provide identifying information, such as name, version, documentation references, location, etc.
+
+e. Describe the resource utilization of the CSCI, that is, the allocation of computer hardware resources (such as processor capacity, memory capacity, input/output device capacity, auxiliary storage capacity, and communications/network equipment capacity) to the CSCI's software components. The description shall state the conditions under which the resource utilization is to be measured.
+
+f. Describe the CSCI's program library, that is, the contents (computer files, data files, program files, etc.) and any applicable characteristics of the program library used in developing, testing, and integrating the software components and in generating the executable software.
+
+## 4.2 Concept of execution.
+
+This paragraph shall describe the concept of execution among the software components. It shall include diagrams and descriptions showing the dynamic relationship of the components, that is, how they will interact during CSCI operation, including, as applicable, flow of execution control, data flow, dynamically controlled sequencing, state transition diagrams, timing diagrams, priorities among components, handling of interrupts, timing/sequencing relationships, exception handling, concurrent execution, dynamic allocation/deallocation, dynamic creation/deletion of objects, processes, tasks, and other aspects of dynamic behavior.
+
+## 4.3 Interface design.
+
+This paragraph shall be divided into the following subparagraphs to describe the interface characteristics of the CSCI's software components. It shall include both interfaces among the components and their interfaces with external entities such as other systems, HWCIs, CSCIs, and users. Note: There is no requirement for these interfaces to be completely designed at this level; this paragraph is provided to allow the recording of interface design decisions made as part of CSCI architectural design. If part or all of this information is contained in Interface Design Descriptions (IDDs) or elsewhere, these sources may be referenced.
+
+### 4.3.1 Interface identification and diagrams.
+
+This paragraph shall state the project-unique identifier assigned to each interface and shall identify the interfacing entities (systems, configuration items, users, etc.) by name, number, version, and documentation references, as applicable. The identification shall state which entities have fixed interface characteristics (and therefore impose interface requirements on interfacing entities) and which are being developed or modified (thus having interface requirements imposed on them). One or more interface diagrams shall be provided, as appropriate, to depict the interfaces.
+
+### 4.3.x (Project-unique identifier of interface).
+
+This paragraph (beginning with 4.3.2) shall identify an interface by project-unique identifier, shall briefly identify the interfacing entities, and shall be divided into subparagraphs as needed to describe the interface characteristics of one or both of the interfacing entities. If a given interfacing entity is not covered by this SDD (for example, an external system) but its interface characteristics need to be mentioned to describe interfacing entities that are, these characteristics shall be stated as assumptions or as "When [the entity not covered] does this, [the entity that is covered] will ...." This paragraph may reference other documents (such as data dictionaries, standards for protocols, and standards for user interfaces) in place of stating the information here. The design description shall include the following, as applicable, presented in any order suited to the information to be provided, and shall note any differences in these characteristics from the point of view of the interfacing entities (such as different expectations about the size, frequency, or other characteristics of data elements):

+   5. Relationships among assemblies, such as sorting/access characteristics
+   6. Priority, timing, frequency, volume, sequencing, and other constraints, such as whether the assembly may be updated and whether business rules apply
+   7. Security and privacy constraints
+   8. Sources (setting/sending entities) and recipients (using/receiving entities)

+
+g. Other characteristics, such as physical compatibility of the interfacing entity(ies) (dimensions, tolerances, loads, voltages, plug compatibility, etc.)
+
+# 5. CSCI detailed design.
+
+This section shall be divided into the following paragraphs to describe each software component of the CSCI.

+## Document Dependencies
+
+The SDP describes how the software will be developed. It benefits from knowing the system architecture (SSDD) and what documents are planned for each CSCI.
+
+| Predecessor | Relationship | Search Pattern |
+|-------------|-------------|----------------|
+| SSDD (System/Subsystem Design Description) | Recommended — provides system architecture, CSCI decomposition, and specification tree | `**/SSDD.md` |
+| SSS (System/Subsystem Specification) | Optional — provides system requirements context | `**/SSS.md` |
+| OCD (Operational Concept Description) | Optional — provides operational context | `**/OCD.md` |
+
+If the SSDD exists, it MUST be loaded — the SDP should reference the CSCI decomposition when describing plans for CSCI-level activities (Section 5), and the specification tree (SSDD 4.1.f) informs Section 3.b (documentation requirements).
+
+If the SSDD has NOT been generated yet, **inform {user_name}**: "The SSDD has not been generated yet. The SDP benefits from the system architecture and CSCI decomposition in the SSDD. Would you like to proceed without it, or generate the SSDD first?"

+**CONFIRMATION GATE**: Present the list of discovered artifacts to the user. Wait for the user to confirm before proceeding to the next step.

+
+Read the SDP template from:
+[template.md](../template.md)
+
+This defines the required DID sections and content expectations for each paragraph.

+**CONFIRMATION GATE**: Confirm to the user that the template has been loaded and summarize the major sections. Wait for the user to confirm before proceeding to document generation.
