[[dido:99_annexes:annex-d-requirements:part-04:start| Return to Requirements]]

===== Statement =====

Each approved script SHALL identify its expected outputs.

===== Source =====

Part 4, Section 21.12: Script and Execution Requirements.

===== Rationale =====

Expected outputs define the observable results produced by a script and allow contributors to determine whether the script completed its intended task.

Output identification also supports repeatability, review, cleanup, and distinction between governed outputs and temporary material.

===== Applies To =====

This requirement applies to:

  * approved scripts;
  * generated outputs;
  * build outputs;
  * logs and reports; and
  * repository modifications produced by scripts.

===== Verification =====

Verification SHALL confirm that each approved script identifies its expected outputs.

Verification activities should include review checks confirming that:

  * expected files or artifacts are documented;
  * expected logs or reports are identified;
  * repository changes are identified where applicable; and
  * unexpected outputs do not silently enter the baseline.

===== Traceability =====

This requirement establishes the output expectations associated with approved Phase 0 scripts.
