# Traceability Audit Skill

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Map requirements, acceptance criteria, implementation, tests, and release artifacts into one traceability report.

Optional args: slug=<feature>, ticket=<id/url>, mode=interactive|autonomous|channel, channel=<id>, auto_continue=true|false, profile=business|hybrid|technical.

## Instructions

When the user asks to perform this workflow, execute the following steps:


# Traceability Audit Workflow

Goal: Prove every acceptance criterion has implementation and verification evidence before release or handoff.

## Steps

1. Load sources:
   - BRD-lite, PRD, SRS/FRS, AC list, implementation plan, changed files, tests, walkthrough, PR comments, release notes.
   - Jira/GitHub/GitLab/ADO/Zephyr/Confluence MCPs when configured; otherwise use exported files and local evidence.
2. Build trace map:
   - BRD objective -> PRD requirement ID.
   - PRD requirement ID -> SRS/FRS contract.
   - AC -> implementation file/function.
   - AC -> automated test, manual/Zephyr TC, or verification step.
   - Release note -> shipped user-visible change.
3. Classify each AC:
   - Covered: code and verification evidence exists.
   - Partial: code or evidence incomplete.
   - Missing: no implementation or no verification.
   - Out of scope: explicitly deferred with owner/link.
4. Flag gaps:
   - Missing requirement mapping.
   - Missing AC implementation.
   - Missing test or manual coverage.
   - Release note missing shipped user impact.
5. Persist:
   - Write the run record to `artifacts/runs/[slug]/[compactISO]-traceability-audit.json` when file writes are allowed.

## Runtime Contract
- Use pre-release or handoff to prove requirement-to-evidence coverage.
- Required inputs: PRD/SRS with AC list plus implementation, test, and release artifacts to map against.
- Return BLOCKED only when no requirement or AC list exists to trace.
## Handoff Payload
- `slug`, requirement map, gap classification, outcome report, next workflow.
## Blocking Questions
- Ask max 3 at a time with a recommended default and 2-3 options.

## Output Template

```md
# Traceability Audit

## Summary

## Requirement Map

| Requirement | SRS/FRS Contract | Verification | Status |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [REQ] | [contract] | [test/evidence] | [status] |

## Gaps

## Outcome Report
{schema_version: 1, run_id: "[run-id]", slug: "[slug]", workflow: traceability-audit, feature_status: verified, started_at: "[timestamp]", completed_at: "[timestamp]", requirement_trace: {brd_objectives: [], requirements: [], acceptance_criteria: [], srs: []}, completed_evidence: [], missing_evidence: [], decision_needed: [], recommended_next_workflow: deploy-release, cost: {source: unavailable}, agent: {identity: "[agent-identity]", model: "[model]"}}

## Next Workflow

## Cost Report
Call `get_session_cost(workflow="traceability-audit")` before final handoff.
```
