## ๐ง System Integration
### Configuration-Driven Architecture
All layers are integrated through the configuration system:
```python
# Services use configuration
whisper_service = WhisperService(model_name=settings.whisper_model)
openai_service = OpenAIService(model=settings.openai_model)
# UI components use configuration
audio_input = ComponentFactory.create_audio_input(
label=UI_LABELS["audio_input"],
file_types=SUPPORTED_AUDIO_EXTENSIONS
)
# PRD generation uses dedicated configuration
if settings.enable_prd_generation:
prd_content = openai_service.generate_prd_from_key_points(
key_points, model=settings.prd_openai_model
)
```
### Service Communication Flow
```
Audio File โ FileService (validation) โ WhisperService (transcription)
โ OpenAIService (analysis/PRD) โ FileService (download preparation)
โ UI Components (display/download)
```

def validate_prd_content(self, prd_content):
"""Validate PRD structure and content"""
# Ensures all 8 required sections present
```
### Configuration Integration
```env
# PRD Feature Configuration
ENABLE_PRD_GENERATION=true # Feature toggle
PRD_OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4 # Dedicated model for PRD generation
PRD_MAX_TOKENS=2000 # Higher token limit for comprehensive PRDs
