Step 4: Validate & Summarize

STEP GOAL

Validate generated outputs and produce a concise automation summary.

MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES

📖 Read the entire step file before acting
✅ Speak in {communication_language}
✅ Validate against the checklist before completion

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. Validate

Use checklist.md to validate:

Framework readiness
Coverage mapping
Test quality and structure
Fixtures, factories, helpers
CLI sessions cleaned up (no orphaned browsers)
Temp artifacts stored in {test_artifacts}/ not random locations

Fix gaps before proceeding.

2. Polish Output

Before finalizing, review the complete output document for quality:

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

3. Summary Output

Write {outputFile} including:

Coverage plan by test level and priority
Files created/updated
Key assumptions and risks
Next recommended workflow (e.g., test-review or trace)

4. Save Progress

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

If {outputFile} does not exist (first save), create it with YAML frontmatter:

  ---
  stepsCompleted: ['step-04-validate-and-summarize']
  lastStep: 'step-04-validate-and-summarize'
  lastSaved: '{date}'
  ---

Then write this step’s output below the frontmatter.

If {outputFile} already exists, update:
- Add 'step-04-validate-and-summarize' to stepsCompleted array (only if not already present)
- Set lastStep: 'step-04-validate-and-summarize'
- Set lastSaved: '{date}'
- Append this step’s output to the appropriate section.

🚨 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.
