tracing-requirements-to-code

Builds and maintains bidirectional traceability between requirements and the tests that verify them: extracts a matrix from an existing codebase, annotates tests with requirement IDs, finds orphan tests and uncovered requirements, verifies that each link is real, and enforces linkage in CI. Use when a suite exists but nobody can say what it proves, when an auditor or stakeholder asks which tests cover a requirement, when a traceability matrix has gone stale, or when a requirement changes and its blast radius must be found. To plan coverage from a spec before tests exist, use requirements-test-coverage-mapper; to check whether one build is done, use verifying-acceptance-criteria.
