Step 5: Generate Report & Validate

STEP GOAL

Produce the NFR evidence audit report and validate completeness.

MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES

• 📖 Read the entire step file before acting
• ✅ Speak in {communication_language}

---

EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:

• 🎯 Follow the MANDATORY SEQUENCE exactly
• 💾 Record outputs before proceeding
• 📖 Load the next step only when instructed

CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:

• Available context: config, loaded artifacts, and knowledge fragments
• Focus: this step's goal only
• Limits: do not execute future steps
• Dependencies: prior steps' outputs (if any)

MANDATORY SEQUENCE

CRITICAL: Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise.

1. Report Generation

Use nfr-report-template.md to produce {outputFile} containing:

• Category results (PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL)
• Evidence summary
• Remediation actions
• Gate-ready YAML snippet (if applicable)

---

2. Polish Output

Before finalizing, review the complete output document for quality:

1. Remove duplication: Progressive-append workflow may have created repeated sections — consolidate
2. Verify consistency: Ensure terminology, risk scores, and references are consistent throughout
3. Check completeness: All template sections should be populated or explicitly marked N/A
4. Format cleanup: Ensure markdown formatting is clean (tables aligned, headers consistent, no orphaned references)

---

3. Validation

Validate against checklist.md and fix gaps.

• CLI sessions cleaned up (no orphaned browsers)

---

4. Save Progress

Save this step's accumulated work to {outputFile}.

• If {outputFile} does not exist (first save), create it using the workflow template (if available) with YAML frontmatter:

  ---
  stepsCompleted: ['step-05-generate-report']
  lastStep: 'step-05-generate-report'
  lastSaved: '{date}'
  ---
  

  Then write this step's output below the frontmatter.

• If {outputFile} already exists, update:

  • Add 'step-05-generate-report' to stepsCompleted array (only if not already present)
  • Set lastStep: 'step-05-generate-report'
  • Set lastSaved: '{date}'
  • Append this step's output to the appropriate section of the document.

---

5. Completion Summary

Report:

• Overall NFR status
• Critical blockers or waivers needed
• Next recommended workflow (trace or release gate)

🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS:

✅ SUCCESS:

• Step completed in full with required outputs

❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:

• Skipped sequence steps or missing outputs Master Rule: Skipping steps is FORBIDDEN.

On Complete

Run: python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow.on_complete

If the resolver succeeds and returns a non-empty workflow.on_complete, execute that value as the final terminal instruction before exiting.

If the resolver fails, returns no output, or resolves an empty value, skip the hook and exit normally.
