name: checking-compliance description: Generates compliance requirements from CE/FCC/UL standards for a device description.

Compliance Requirements Generation

Target: $ARGUMENTS

Generate a compliance checklist and initial requirements file from applicable regulatory standards based on the device description.

References (MUST READ)

Read these before proceeding:

• references/compliance-standards.md — Applicable directives, standards, and their scope
• references/requirement-hierarchy.md — SYS-REQ → PRD-REQ → SW-REQ ID conventions

Workflow

1. Parse device description — Identify device type, markets (EU/US/both), wireless capability, power source, intended use
2. Select applicable directives:
   • EU: LVD (2014/35/EU) + EMC (2014/30/EU) + RED (2014/53/EU if wireless) + RoHS + REACH
   • US: UL 62368-1 + FCC Part 15 (+ Part 18 if ISM)
3. WebSearch for latest standard revisions if unsure about current edition
4. Generate compliance checklist at docs/compliance-checklist.md with:
   • Each applicable directive/standard
   • Specific clauses relevant to the device type
   • Test requirements (pre-compliance and certification)
5. Generate requirements file at docs/requirements.md with SYS-REQ entries:
   • One SYS-REQ per applicable standard clause
   • Include norm reference in each entry (e.g., SYS-REQ-001: EN 55032 Class B conducted emission limits)
6. Output next steps — Explain how to break SYS-REQ into PRD-REQ and SW-REQ, then use implementing-firmware

Compliance Checklist

# Compliance Checklist: <Device Name>

## Markets: <EU / US / Both>

### EU Directives
- [ ] LVD 2014/35/EU — IEC 62368-1:2023
  - Clause 5.4: Electrically-caused fire

Requirements File

# Requirements: <Device Name>

## System Requirements (SYS-REQ)

| ID | Description | Norm Reference | Status |
|----|-------------|----------------|--------|
| SYS-REQ-001 | Device shall meet EN 55032 Class B conducted emission limits | EN 55032:2015+A1:2020 §5 | open |

Rules

• Always include norm version numbers — never reference a standard without its edition
• When in doubt about applicability, include the standard and note it as "to be confirmed"
• Separate safety (LVD/UL) from EMC from environmental (RoHS/REACH) requirements
• Do NOT generate PRD-REQ or SW-REQ — that is the user's refinement step
