Spec-to-code compliance checks detect discrepancies by extracting claims from design documents, mapping them to code behavior, classifying divergences, and generating a structured findings report. This verifies that documented behavior matches actual code implementation.

Spec-to-code verification is the process of reconciling documentation claims with code behavior to surface discrepancies during audits. You need it when auditing multi-chain protocols or codebases with design specifications to ensure implementation matches documented claims.

Verifying whitepaper claims against code behavior involves extracting claims from documentation, mapping them to code implementations, and classifying divergences. This autonomous audit workflow identifies HAS_DOCS claims and verifies corresponding implementations across the repository.

Yes, automated compliance audits apply to codebases with design documents and specifications. The agent orchestrates claim extraction, code verification, divergence classification, and reporting in one pass to detect when design specs claim behavior not implemented or contradicted by code.

The best way to detect contradicting documentation claims is running an autonomous spec compliance audit that extracts claims from docs, maps them to code, and classifies divergences. This surfaces discrepancies between documented behavior and code implementation during security audits.
