## 1 Introduction

> Provide context for the SRS, including purpose, scope, terminology, references, and document organization.

### 1.1 Purpose

### 1.2 Scope

### 1.3 Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations

### 1.4 References

### 1.5 Overview

## 2 Overall Description

> Summarize product perspective, major capabilities, user classes, operating environment, constraints, and assumptions.

## 3 Specific Requirements

> Document functional and non-functional requirements. Use structured subsections below and duplicate as needed.

### 3.1 Functionality

#### 3.1.1 ``Functional Requirement``

> State behavior, stimulus/response, and acceptance criteria.

### 3.2 Usability

#### 3.2.1 ``Usability Requirement``

> Describe usability targets (learnability, accessibility, training, UI conventions).

### 3.3 Reliability

#### 3.3.1 ``Reliability Requirement``

> Specify availability, fault tolerance, recovery, and defect thresholds.

### 3.4 Performance

#### 3.4.1 ``Performance Requirement``

> Capture response time, throughput, capacity, degradation modes, and resource usage limits.

### 3.5 Supportability

#### 3.5.1 ``Supportability Requirement``

> Describe maintainability constraints, diagnostics, coding standards, or tooling needs.

### 3.6 Design Constraints

#### 3.6.1 ``Design Constraint``

> Enumerate mandated technologies, architectural restrictions, or compliance constraints.

### 3.7 Online User Documentation and Help System Requirements

> Detail in-product help, tutorials, or documentation deliverables.

### 3.8 Purchased Components

> Identify third-party components, licensing restrictions, and interoperability requirements.

### 3.9 Interfaces

#### 3.9.1 User Interfaces

#### 3.9.2 Hardware Interfaces

#### 3.9.3 Software Interfaces

#### 3.9.4 Communications Interfaces

> For each interface type, describe protocols, data formats, error handling, and dependency considerations.

### 3.10 Licensing Requirements

### 3.11 Legal, Copyright, and Other Notices

### 3.12 Applicable Standards

> Record obligations tied to licensing, legal terms, or standards (industry, regulatory, organizational).

## 4 Supporting Information

> Provide appendices, indexes, or reference materials used to elaborate requirements (storyboards, prototypes,
> traceability matrices, etc.).

## Agent Notes

- Reference related use-case IDs and supplementary requirements for each section.
- Highlight constraints and interfaces that downstream architects must honor.
- Verify the Automation Outputs entry is satisfied before signaling completion.
