This change addresses the need for a clear, stakeholder-readable document describing the program’s function, architecture, and design without tying the spec to a legacy language/runtime. It introduces a high-level PRD that can drive reimplementation planning in any target stack.

  • What was added

    • Created AS400/CL_examples/Loops/QCLLESRC/prd_spec.md as a new high-level Product Requirements Document.
    • Structured the document with all required sections: Title, Introduction, Problem Statement, Objectives, Requirements, User Stories, Acceptance Criteria, Timeline, Dependencies, Risks, and Conclusion.
  • Requirements model captured

    • Defined functional requirements for workflow lifecycle, loop behavior (conditional/counter/nested), controlled exit semantics, messaging, state mutation, and safety guardrails.
    • Defined non-functional requirements for determinism, reliability, maintainability, portability, testability, performance, and auditability.
  • Architecture and design intent

    • Framed behavior as an implementation-neutral workflow/orchestration service.
    • Explicitly documented control-flow contracts and operational observability expectations to reduce ambiguity during rebuild.
  • Delivery planning content

    • Added a phased delivery timeline, cross-team dependencies, and risk/mitigation mapping to support planning and stakeholder review.
## Requirements
### Functional Requirements
- **FR-4 Nested Loop Control:** The system shall support nested iterative structures with named control boundaries.
- **FR-5 Directed Exit:** The system shall allow controlled early exit from nested structures to a defined outer boundary.

### Non-Functional Requirements
- **NFR-1 Determinism:** Identical inputs and initial state must produce identical outputs and sequence.
