# Implementation Summary: REQ-ID Traceability (T-0210)

**Date**: 2026-03-04
**Version**: abi-spec v0.2.0
**Task ID**: T-0210

## Overview

Successfully wired abi-spec into the orchestrator with full REQ-ID traceability support. All requirements met, all tests passing (98/98).

## Deliverables

### 1. REQ-ID Tracking to SpecPack ✅

**Implementation**: `src/abi_spec/traceability.py`

- ✅ Unique REQ-ID format: `REQ-001`, `REQ-002`, etc.
- ✅ Pattern validation: `^REQ-[0-9]{3,}$`
- ✅ Auto-generation from index: `generate_req_id(index)`
- ✅ Validation function: `validate_req_id(req_id)`

**Schema Changes**: `schemas/spec_manifest.schema.json`
- Added `requirements_index` as required field
- Added `title` and `source_prd_section` to requirements
- Enforced REQ-ID pattern in schema validation

### 2. Acceptance Criteria in Given/When/Then Format ✅

**Implementation**: `src/abi_spec/acceptance.py`

- ✅ Parser: `parse_acceptance_criteria(acceptance)`
  - Supports: "Given X, When Y, Then Z"
  - Case-insensitive: "GIVEN X WHEN Y THEN Z"
  - Plain text fallback with default context

- ✅ Validator: `validate_acceptance_criteria(criteria)`
  - Ensures all three sections (given/when/then) present

- ✅ Formatter: `format_acceptance_criteria(criteria)`
  - Converts back to human-readable format

**Examples**:
```json
"acceptance": [
  "Given valid OAuth2 token, When request is made, Then access is granted",
  "Given expired token, When request is made, Then 401 is returned"
]
```

Parsed to:
```json
{
  "given": ["valid OAuth2 token", "expired token"],
  "when": ["request is made", "request is made"],
  "then": ["access is granted", "401 is returned"]
}
```

### 3. Requirements Index in SpecPack Output ✅

**Implementation**: Integrated in `src/abi_spec/compiler.py`

The SpecPack manifest now includes:
```json
{
  "spec_version": "1.0",
  "spec_id": "spec-req-001",
  "prd_hash": "...",
  "requirements": [...],
  "requirements_index": [
    {
      "req_id": "REQ-001",
      "title": "OAuth2 Authentication",
      "acceptance_criteria": {
        "given": ["valid OAuth2 token"],
        "when": ["request is made"],
        "then": ["access is granted"]
      },
      "source_prd_section": "Security.Authentication"
    }
  ]
}
```

### 4. Traceability Matrix Generator ✅

**Implementation**: `src/abi_spec/traceability.py:generate_traceability_matrix()`

**Input**:
- `requirements_index`: List of requirements from SpecPack
- `test_results`: Dict mapping test IDs to REQ-IDs and status

**Output**:
```json
{
  "matrix_version": "1.0",
  "requirements": [
    {
      "req_id": "REQ-001",
      "title": "OAuth2 Authentication",
      "tests": [
        {"test_id": "test_auth_valid", "status": "passed"},
        {"test_id": "test_auth_expired", "status": "passed"}
      ],
      "coverage_status": "covered",
      "verification_status": "passed"
    }
  ],
  "summary": {
    "total_requirements": 10,
    "covered_requirements": 8,
    "uncovered_requirements": 2,
    "passed_requirements": 6,
    "failed_requirements": 2,
    "pending_requirements": 0
  }
}
```

**Verification Status Values**:
- `passed`: All tests passed
- `failed`: At least one test failed
- `pending`: Some tests pending
- `untested`: No tests for this requirement

**Coverage Status Values**:
- `covered`: At least one test maps to requirement
- `uncovered`: No tests map to requirement

### 5. CLI Command for Traceability Matrix ✅

**Implementation**: `src/abi_spec/cli.py:cmd_traceability()`

**Usage**:
```bash
# Basic (no test results)
uv run python -m abi_spec traceability path/to/specpack

# With test results
uv run python -m abi_spec traceability path/to/specpack \
  --test-results test_results.json

# Save to file
uv run python -m abi_spec traceability path/to/specpack \
  --test-results test_results.json \
  --output traceability_matrix.json
```

**Output**:
- JSON matrix to stdout (or file with --output)
- Summary statistics to stderr

### 6. Evidence Pack Integration ✅

**For Orchestrator Integration**:

```python
# 1. Compile SpecPack from PRD
from abi_spec.compiler import compile_prd_json_to_specpack

result = compile_prd_json_to_specpack("prd.json", "specpack_output")
# result = {"manifest_hash": "...", "prd_hash": "..."}

# 2. Load requirements index
import json
from pathlib import Path

manifest = json.loads(Path("specpack_output/spec_manifest.json").read_text())
requirements_index = manifest["requirements_index"]

# 3. Generate traceability matrix
from abi_spec.traceability import generate_traceability_matrix

test_results = {
    "test_auth_valid": {"req_ids": ["REQ-001"], "status": "passed"},
    "test_auth_expired": {"req_ids": ["REQ-001"], "status": "passed"},
    # ... more test results
}

matrix = generate_traceability_matrix(requirements_index, test_results)

# 4. Include in evidence pack
evidence_pack = {
    "generated_at": "2026-03-04T12:00:00Z",
    "spec_manifest_hash": result["manifest_hash"],
    "requirements_verification": matrix,
    # ... other evidence
}
```
