Read the specification document carefully. For each section, ask yourself:
Identify issues in these categories:
Facts or claims that may be incorrect:
Statements that conflict with each other:
Vague or unclear language:
Important aspects not addressed:
Things taken for granted that may not hold:
For each issue found:
Issue [N] of [total]: [Category]
I found a potential [inaccuracy/contradiction/ambiguity/gap/assumption]:
> "[quoted text from the spec]"
**Problem**: [Explanation of why this is an issue]
**Question**: [Specific question to resolve it]
Issue 1 of 5: Inaccuracy
I found a potential inaccuracy:
> "The system will integrate with the Slack API to send real-time notifications"
**Problem**: Slack's API uses webhooks for outgoing notifications, not
true real-time push. There may be latency of seconds to minutes depending
on Slack's infrastructure.
**Question**: Is some latency acceptable for these notifications, or do
you need true sub-second delivery (which would require a different approach)?
Issue 2 of 5: Contradiction
I found a potential contradiction:
Section "Goals" says:
> "Provide a simple, intuitive interface for non-technical users"
But Section "Use Cases" includes:
> "Users can write custom SQL queries to extract data"
**Problem**: Writing SQL queries is not intuitive for non-technical users.
These two requirements conflict.
**Question**: Should the system support both personas (with SQL as a power-user
feature), or should we focus on one audience?
Issue 3 of 5: Ambiguity
I found an ambiguity:
> "The system should handle high traffic loads"
**Problem**: "High traffic" is not defined. Without specifics, we can't
make architecture decisions or set performance targets.
**Question**: What's your expected traffic? (e.g., requests per second,
concurrent users, data volume per day)
