SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Validate that the implementation aligns with SPEC.md and REQUIREMENTS.md to prevent drift between code and intent.

Core Features & Use Cases

Cross-check implementations against SPEC.md to ensure traceability
Verify REQUIREMENTS.md coverage and generate a gap report
Produce a formal Validation Report detailing PASS or remediation steps

Quick Start

Validate that implementation matches the spec by cross-checking SPEC.md and REQUIREMENTS.md, then generate a PASS/FAIL report.

FAQPage Schema

How do I verify my implementation matches the software requirements spec?▼

Validate implementation against specs by cross-checking code, tests, and documentation against SPEC.md and REQUIREMENTS.md to confirm coverage, traceability, and compliance for each requirement ID.

What is requirements traceability and when do I need to check it?▼

Requirements traceability links each REQ-ID to implemented code and tests to prevent drift. You need to check it when ensuring your build fulfills every formal specification before release.

How do I generate a validation report for software quality gates?▼

Generate a validation report by applying compliance checks across files and tests, which produces a formal PASS confirmation or documents specific gaps and remediation steps for your quality gates.

Can I use this to check REQUIREMENTS.md coverage without external dependencies?▼

Yes, you can verify REQUIREMENTS.md coverage without external dependencies because the validation process runs standalone, applying checks across your existing files and tests to output a formal gap report.

What is the best way to prevent drift between code and formal specifications?▼

The best way to prevent code and spec drift is to run validation checks cross-referencing implementations against SPEC.md and REQUIREMENTS.md, producing a detailed gap report with necessary remediation steps.

What happens when implemented code fails to meet the SPEC.md requirements?▼

When code fails to meet SPEC.md requirements, the validation process documents the specific gaps in coverage and traceability, outputting a formal report with detailed remediation steps to achieve compliance.
