Explanation

Solution Intent serves as a living repository that captures and communicates the evolving requirements, design decisions, and behavioral specifications needed to build a solution - making option A correct. Option B is wrong because Solution Intent is not about upfront approval; SAFe explicitly avoids heavyweight gate-based processes that delay development. Option C is wrong because Solution Intent is not static - it moves along a continuum from variable (options still open) to fixed (decisions locked), adapting as the team learns more. A helpful memory tip: think of Solution Intent as a "single source of truth that grows" - it records and communicates decisions over time, rather than freezing them upfront.
