Validate technical feasibility and identify implementation risks for proposed solution design.

## CORE CHECKLIST ⚡
□ Read context-package.json and gemini-solution-design.md
□ Assess complexity, validate technology choices
□ Evaluate performance and security implications
□ Focus on TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY and RISK ASSESSMENT
□ Write output to specified .workflow/active/{session_id}/.process/ path

## PREREQUISITE ANALYSIS

### Required Input Files

2. **gemini-solution-design.md**: Proposed solution design and architecture
3. **workflow-session.json**: Session state and context
4. **CLAUDE.md**: Project standards and conventions

### Analysis Dependencies
- Review Gemini's proposed solution design
- Validate against actual codebase capabilities
- Assess implementation complexity realistically
- Identify gaps between design and execution

## REQUIRED VALIDATION

### 1. Feasibility Assessment
- **Complexity Rating**: Rate technical complexity (1-5 scale)
  - 1: Trivial - straightforward implementation
  - 2: Simple - well-known patterns
  - 3: Moderate - some challenges
  - 4: Complex - significant challenges
  - 5: Very Complex - high risk, major unknowns

- **Resource Requirements**: Estimate development effort
  - Development time (hours/days/weeks)
  - Required expertise level
  - Infrastructure needs

- **Technology Compatibility**: Validate proposed tech stack
  - Framework version compatibility
  - Library maturity and support
  - Integration with existing systems

### 2. Risk Analysis
- **Implementation Risks**: Technical challenges and blockers
  - Unknown implementation patterns
  - Missing capabilities or APIs
  - Breaking changes to existing code

- **Integration Challenges**: System integration concerns
  - Data format compatibility
  - API contract changes
  - Dependency conflicts

- **Performance Concerns**: Performance and scalability risks
  - Resource consumption (CPU, memory, I/O)
  - Latency and throughput impact
  - Caching and optimization needs

- **Security Concerns**: Security vulnerabilities and threats
  - Authentication/authorization gaps
  - Data exposure risks
  - Compliance violations

### 3. Implementation Validation
- **Development Approach**: Validate proposed implementation strategy
  - Verify module dependency order

  - Code maintainability assessment
  - Technical debt evaluation
  - Evolution and extensibility

### 4. Code Target Verification
Review Gemini's proposed code targets:
- **Validate existing targets**: Confirm file:function:lines exist
- **Assess new file targets**: Evaluate necessity and placement
- **Identify missing targets**: Suggest additional modification points
- **Refine target specifications**: Provide more precise line numbers if possible

### 5. Recommendations
- **Must-Have Requirements**: Critical requirements for success
- **Optimization Opportunities**: Performance and quality improvements
- **Security Controls**: Essential security measures
- **Risk Mitigation**: Strategies to reduce identified risks

## OUTPUT REQUIREMENTS

### Output File
**Path**: `.workflow/active/{session_id}/.process/codex-feasibility-validation.md`
**Format**: Follow structure from `~/.claude/workflows/cli-templates/prompts/workflow/analysis-results-structure.txt`

### Required Sections
Focus on these sections from the template:
- Executive Summary (with Codex perspective)
- Current State Analysis (validation findings)
- Implementation Strategy (feasibility assessment)
- Solution Optimization (risk mitigation)
- Confidence Scores (technical feasibility focus)

### Content Guidelines
- ✅ Focus on technical feasibility and risk assessment
- ✅ Verify code targets from Gemini's design
- ✅ Provide concrete risk mitigation strategies
- ✅ Quantify complexity and effort estimates
- ❌ Do NOT create task breakdowns
- ❌ Do NOT provide step-by-step implementation guides
- ❌ Do NOT include code examples

## VALIDATION METHODOLOGY

### Complexity Scoring
Rate each aspect on 1-5 scale:
- Technical Complexity
- Integration Complexity
- Performance Risk
- Security Risk
- Maintenance Burden

### Risk Classification
- **LOW**: Minor issues, easily addressable
- **MEDIUM**: Manageable challenges with clear mitigation
- **HIGH**: Significant concerns requiring major mitigation
- **CRITICAL**: Fundamental viability threats

### Feasibility Judgment
- **PROCEED**: Technically feasible with acceptable risk
- **PROCEED_WITH_MODIFICATIONS**: Feasible but needs adjustments
- **RECONSIDER**: High risk, major changes needed
- **REJECT**: Not feasible with current approach

## CONTEXT INTEGRATION

### Gemini Analysis Integration
- Review proposed architecture and design decisions
- Validate assumptions and technology choices
- Cross-check code targets against actual codebase
- Assess realism of performance targets

### Codebase Reality Check
- Verify existing code capabilities
- Identify actual technical constraints
- Assess team skill compatibility
- Evaluate infrastructure readiness

### Session Context
- Consider session history and previous decisions
- Align with project architecture standards
- Respect existing patterns and conventions

## EXECUTION MODE

**Mode**: Analysis with write permission for output file
**CLI Tool**: Codex with --skip-git-repo-check -s danger-full-access
**Timeout**: 60-90 minutes for complex tasks
**Output**: Single file codex-feasibility-validation.md
**Trigger**: Only for complex tasks (>6 modules)
