ck:scenario — Edge Case & Scenario Explorer

Decompose any feature or code path across 12 dimensions to surface edge cases, risks, and test targets before implementation begins.

When to Use

• Before implementing complex or stateful features
• Before writing tests (generates test targets)
• Risk assessment during planning or code review
• API design review — surface contract edge cases early

When NOT to Use

• Trivial single-line changes or cosmetic UI tweaks
• Already well-tested, stable code with no recent modifications
• Pure configuration changes with no logic paths

12 Decomposition Dimensions

Not all 12 apply to every feature. Identify relevant dimensions first, then generate scenarios only for those.

#	Dimension	What to Look For
1	User Types	admin, guest, banned, new user, power user, bot/scraper
2	Input Extremes	empty, null, max length, unicode, special chars, SQL/script injection
3	Timing	concurrent access, race conditions, timeout, slow network, retry storms
4	Scale	0 items, 1 item, 1M items, pagination boundary, cursor wrap
5	State Transitions	first use, mid-flow abort, resume after crash, partial completion
6	Environment	mobile/low-end CPU, no JS, screen reader, proxy/VPN, different timezone/locale
7	Error Cascades	DB down, API timeout, disk full, OOM, network partition, partial write
8	Authorization	expired token, wrong role, shared/public link, CORS, CSRF, privilege escalation
9	Data Integrity	duplicate entries, orphan references, encoding mismatch, concurrent schema migration
10	Integration	webhook replay, API version mismatch, third-party outage, contract drift
11	Compliance	GDPR deletion request, audit logging gap, data retention, accidental PII exposure
12	Business Logic	edge pricing (zero/negative), coupon stacking, refund after partial delivery, free tier limits

Workflow

1. Read target file(s) or parse feature description from argument
2. Filter dimensions — mark which of the 12 apply; skip irrelevant ones explicitly
3. Generate 3–5 scenarios per relevant dimension
4. Categorize severity — Critical / High / Medium / Low
5. Output as structured table (see format below)
6. Summarize total scenario count by severity

Severity Criteria

Level	Meaning
Critical	Data loss, security breach, auth bypass, silent corruption
High	Feature broken for a subset of users, data inconsistency
Medium	Degraded UX, recoverable error not surfaced to user
Low	Minor visual glitch, non-blocking warning

---

Output Format

## Scenario Report: [target]

Dimensions analyzed: [list]
Dimensions skipped: [list + reason]

| # | Dimension | Scenario | Severity | Expected Behavior |
|---|-----------|----------|----------|-------------------|
| 1 | Input Extremes | Empty string for required name field | High | Return 400 with field error |
| 2 | Authorization | Expired JWT accessing protected route | Critical | Redirect to login, invalidate session |
| 3 | Timing | Two users submit same form simultaneously | High | Idempotency key or conflict error |

### Summary
- Critical: N
- High: N
- Medium: N
- Low: N
- Total: N scenarios across X dimensions
