Use Case (UC)

Cite in CrossReference only if the instance exists (new-artifact.sh checks this for you):

  • UCD — Actor and use-case names must match it exactly
  • US — Stories this use case decomposes into
  • SA — Stakeholders & Interests — cite S-IDs
  • DM — Forward: concepts derived from this use case's nouns
  • SSD — Forward: the SSD depicting this use case's main scenario

Location

docs/uc-NNN/uc.md, one folder per use case (create with new-artifact.sh UC --file docs/uc-NNN/uc.md). The artifacts this use case affects are saved in the same folder; see the project-planning skill, "Use cases get their own folder".

Required sections (after Metadata / Version History)

Pick the format explicitly (Format: Brief | Casual | Fully Dressed) and state the scope/level (summary, user-goal, subfunction). Always: primary actor, pre/postconditions, goal-perspective wording with no UI or implementation detail.

  • Brief — a single paragraph summarizing only the main success scenario.
  • Casual — informal multi-paragraph narrative; may mention some alternate flows.
  • Fully Dressed — all sections, in order: Scope, Level, Primary Actor, Stakeholders and Interests (cite SA S-IDs), Preconditions, Postconditions (success guarantee), Main Success Scenario (numbered steps), Extensions / Alternative Flows (reference <<include>> / <<extend>> use cases), Special Requirements / Business Rules (per step), Open Issues.

Title and actor names must match UCD and US exactly.
