Slice 7: MVP Scope Decision

Status

Complete

Objective

Define one testable MVP release boundary, especially whether IBM Bob/watsonx integration is required for the initial release.

Dependencies

  • Product-owner decisions
  • Existing requirements, architecture, and task inventory

In Scope

  • AI-in-MVP decision
  • Required personas, workflows, deployment model, inclusions, exclusions, and acceptance criteria
  • Reconciliation of conflicting requirement statements

Out of Scope

  • Feature implementation and detailed post-MVP roadmap planning

Tasks

  • Inventory ambiguous or conflicting MVP statements.
  • Define minimum release workflows.
  • Decide that AI is provider-neutral and post-MVP.
  • Decide that every modeled authentication type is release-blocking.
  • Confirm the six acceptance workflows in MVP_SCOPE.md.
  • Convert the decisions into measurable release criteria.
  • Update project state and dependent plans.

Acceptance Criteria

  • One authoritative MVP definition exists without contradictory release requirements.
  • AI has an explicit status and, if included, a bounded acceptance test.
  • Every requirement maps to a slice and validation criterion.
  • Deferred features are clearly labeled post-MVP.
  • Slice 6 has a definitive release checklist.

Validation

  • Requirements, architecture, tasks, and slices use consistent language.
  • No open question can materially change MVP completion.
  • The product owner approves the release boundary.

Risks and Open Questions

  • AI ambiguity can invalidate estimates and acceptance late in development.
  • Aspirational requirements can make the MVP impractically large.
  • Scope reduction must not discard required security controls.

Progress Log

2026-07-18

  • Removed IBM Bob/watsonx from MVP scope.
  • Required all five modeled authentication modes.
  • Approved six end-to-end acceptance workflows.
  • Created MVP_SCOPE.md.

Handoff

  • Last completed: Product owner approved and documented the MVP scope.
  • Next action: Use MVP_SCOPE.md to drive implementation and release acceptance.
  • Known blockers: None.
