+## STEP GOAL:

+
+## 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}`

+- ✅ 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 systematic validation, not collaborative dialogue
+- ✅ You bring analytical rigor and requirements engineering expertise
+- ✅ This step runs autonomously - no user input needed
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus ONLY on FR and NFR measurability
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to validate other aspects in this step
+- 💬 Approach: Systematic requirement-by-requirement analysis
+- 🚪 This is a validation sequence step - auto-proceeds when complete
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Extract all FRs and NFRs from PRD
+- 💾 Validate each for measurability and format
+- 📖 Append findings to validation report
+- 📖 Display "Proceeding to next check..." and load next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to pause or request user input
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Available context: PRD file, validation report
+- Focus: FR and NFR measurability only
+- Limits: Don't validate other aspects, don't pause for user input
+- Dependencies: Steps 2-4 completed - initial validation checks done
+
+## 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 measurability validation on this PRD:
+
+**Functional Requirements (FRs):**
+1. Extract all FRs from Functional Requirements section
+2. Check each FR for:
+   - '[Actor] can [capability]' format compliance
+   - No subjective adjectives (easy, fast, simple, intuitive, etc.)
+   - No vague quantifiers (multiple, several, some, many, etc.)
+   - No implementation details (technology names, library names, data structures unless capability-relevant)
+3. Document violations with line numbers
+
+**Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs):**
+1. Extract all NFRs from Non-Functional Requirements section
+2. Check each NFR for:
+   - Specific metrics with measurement methods
+   - Template compliance (criterion, metric, measurement method, context)
+   - Context included (why this matters, who it affects)
+3. Document violations with line numbers
+
+Return structured findings with violation counts and examples."
+
+### 2. Graceful Degradation (if Task tool unavailable)
+
+If Task tool unavailable, perform analysis directly:
+
+**Functional Requirements Analysis:**
+
+Extract all FRs and check each for:
+
+**Format compliance:**
+- Does it follow "[Actor] can [capability]" pattern?
+- Is actor clearly defined?
+- Is capability actionable and testable?
+
+**No subjective adjectives:**
+- Scan for: easy, fast, simple, intuitive, user-friendly, responsive, quick, efficient (without metrics)
+- Note line numbers
+
+**No vague quantifiers:**
+- Scan for: multiple, several, some, many, few, various, number of
+- Note line numbers
+
+**No implementation details:**
+- Scan for: React, Vue, Angular, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Redux, etc.
+- Unless capability-relevant (e.g., "API consumers can access...")
+- Note line numbers
+
+**Non-Functional Requirements Analysis:**
+
+Extract all NFRs and check each for:
+
+**Specific metrics:**
+- Is there a measurable criterion? (e.g., "response time < 200ms", not "fast response")
+- Can this be measured or tested?
+
+**Template compliance:**
+- Criterion defined?
+- Metric specified?
+- Measurement method included?
+- Context provided?
+
+### 3. Tally Violations
+
+**FR Violations:**
+- Format violations: count
+- Subjective adjectives: count
+- Vague quantifiers: count
+- Implementation leakage: count
+- Total FR violations: sum
+
+**NFR Violations:**
+- Missing metrics: count
+- Incomplete template: count
+- Missing context: count
+- Total NFR violations: sum
+
+**Total violations:** FR violations + NFR violations
+
