Ambiguous Documents

Document Map

Each row shows how one of the eight clarity concerns supports PM, UX, and engineering as work moves from an initial intent toward code.

PM starts in Narrative and Brief, UX converges in Brief and Plan, and engineering becomes build-ready in Story and Ticket. While Problem and Direction remain open, improvement work needs the baseline in Where We Are. New-feature work relies on People for that context.
