HSP Critical Issues - Resolution Report

Document Version: 1.0 Resolution Date: 2025-11-19 Reviewer: Reviewer Agent (Hive Mind) Status: ✅ ALL CRITICAL ISSUES RESOLVED

---

Executive Summary

All critical issues identified in the HSP architecture analysis have been SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED. The system is now ready for implementation with 62 unique, properly numbered requirements and zero critical or high-priority issues.

---

Resolved Issues

1. ✅ Buffer Size Conflict - RESOLVED

Original Issue:

• Req-FR-25 specification: "max 300 messages"
• Configuration file: "max_messages": 300000
• 1000x discrepancy causing ambiguity

Resolution:

• Confirmed value: 300 messages (not 300,000)
• Updated in: requirements/HSP_Configuration_File_Specification.md
• Updated requirement: Req-FR-26 now correctly states 300 messages
• Resolution Date: 2025-11-19

Impact Analysis:

• Buffer memory usage: ~3MB (300 messages × 10KB average)
• Well within 4096MB memory budget (Req-NFR-2)
• Suitable for short network outages (5 minutes at 1 message/second)

Status: ✅ RESOLVED - No stakeholder action required

---

2. ✅ Duplicate Requirement IDs - RESOLVED

Original Issues:

Issue 2a: Req-FR-25 Duplicate

• Problem: Two requirements both labeled Req-FR-25 (lines 66, 67)
• Resolution:
  • First instance remains Req-FR-25 (send data to Core)
  • Second instance renumbered to Req-FR-26 (buffering)
  • All subsequent FR requirements shifted: FR-26→FR-27, FR-27→FR-28, etc.
  • Final functional requirement: Req-FR-33 (receiver_id = 99)

Issue 2b: Req-NFR-7, Req-NFR-8 Testing Duplicates

• Problem: Req-NFR-7 and Req-NFR-8 appeared twice (lines 100-101, 117-118)
• Resolution:
  • First instances (health check) remain Req-NFR-7, Req-NFR-8
  • Second instances (testing) moved to NEW category: Req-Test-1, Req-Test-2

Issue 2c: Req-NFR-9, Req-NFR-10 Reclassification

• Problem: Originally classified as Non-Functional, but actually Testing requirements
• Resolution: Moved to Testing category as Req-Test-3, Req-Test-4

Issue 2d: Req-US-1 Triple Duplicate

• Problem: Three user stories all labeled Req-US-1 (lines 126, 127, 128)
• Resolution:
  • Req-US-1: System operator story (automatic collection)
  • Req-US-2: Data analyst story (reliable transmission)
  • Req-US-3: System administrator story (health monitoring)

Status: ✅ RESOLVED - All 62 requirements now have unique IDs

Validation

Requirement ID Uniqueness Check

# All 62 requirement IDs are now unique
✅ Req-Arch-1 through Req-Arch-8 (8 requirements)
✅ Req-FR-1 through Req-FR-33 (33 requirements)
✅ Req-NFR-1 through Req-NFR-8 (8 requirements)
✅ Req-Norm-1 through Req-Norm-6 (6 requirements)
✅ Req-Test-1 through Req-Test-4 (4 requirements)
✅ Req-US-1 through Req-US-3 (3 requirements)
TOTAL: 62 unique IDs ✅

Buffer Size Consistency Check

// HSP_Configuration_File_Specification.md
{
  "buffer": {
    "max_messages": 300  // ✅ Correct value
  }
}

// Req-FR-26
"If gRPC transmission fails, HSP shall buffer collected data
in memory (max 300 messages - RESOLVED 2025-11-19)"
✅ Specification and requirement now consistent
