What a discovery sprint should prove before production code

Scope clarity, user journeys, data ownership, integration points, and acceptance criteria reduce rework once engineering starts shipping features.

Use when stakeholders want speed but the product surface area is still fuzzy.

Align on the real workflow

Discovery should map who does what today, where data is created, who approves changes, and which steps must stay auditable for compliance or finance.
