# Specification Quality Checklist: IRCAM Amplify MCP Server
**Purpose**: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning
**Created**: 2025-12-12
**Updated**: 2025-12-12 (Simplified for universal MCP compatibility)
**Feature**: [spec.md](../spec.md)
## Content Quality
- [x] No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
- [x] Focused on user value and business needs
- [x] Written for non-technical stakeholders
- [x] All mandatory sections completed
## Requirement Completeness
- [x] No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
- [x] Requirements are testable and unambiguous
- [x] Success criteria are measurable
- [x] Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
- [x] All acceptance scenarios are defined
- [x] Edge cases are identified with concrete decisions
- [x] Scope is clearly bounded (MVP vs Post-MVP)
- [x] Dependencies and assumptions identified
## Feature Readiness
- [x] All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
- [x] User scenarios cover primary flows
- [x] Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
- [x] No implementation details leak into specification
- [x] MCP Tools Schema defined for all MVP tools
## Simplification Decisions Validated
- [x] Input: URL only (no local file paths) - simpler, more universal
- [x] Async: Polling via check_job_status (no webhooks) - no server required
- [x] Auth: Single env var IRCAM_AMPLIFY_API_KEY - MCP standard
- [x] Scope: 4 APIs + status check for MVP - deliverable quickly
- [x] Storage: Out of scope - use IRCAM temp URLs directly
## Notes
- All validation items passed
- Specification simplified for maximum compatibility
- MVP scope reduced from 17 APIs to 4 core APIs + job status
- Edge cases now have concrete error messages defined
- Ready for `/speckit.plan`
## Changes from Initial Spec
1. Added "Design Decisions" section documenting simplifications
2. Reduced from 6 user stories to 5 (removed Storage management)
3. All user stories now P1 (MVP critical)
4. Added MCP Tools Schema with exact input/output
5. Added "Out of Scope" section for clarity
6. Edge cases converted from questions to concrete behaviors
7. Requirements split into MVP (FR-001 to FR-010) and Post-MVP (FR-011+)
