Create a requirements traceability matrix linking requirements to design, test, and delivery. Use when the user says "traceability matrix", "RTM", "requirements traceability", "link requirements to tests", "trace requirements", "coverage matrix", "are all requirements tested", "requirements coverage", "forward traceability", "backward traceability" - even if they don't explicitly say "traceability matrix".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Reference Files - `references/traceability-template.md` - Template table for the RTM with all standard columns plus a V-Model diagram showing the requirement-to-test level mapping. Read this in Step 2 when setting up the matrix structure. ## Overview Based on **Requirements Engineering** by Elizabeth Hull, Ken Jackson, and Jeremy Dick - the most thorough treatment of pre-RS traceability (source to requirement) and post-RS traceability (requirement to design to test to delivery). Also draws on the **BABOK Guide v3 (IIBA)** Requirements Life Cycle Management knowledge area, and **Mastering the Requirements Process** by Robertson & Robertson where each Volere Snow Card links requirement to event, source, and rationale. The key insight from Hull: traceability is not a bureaucratic checkbox. It answers three critical questions: "Why does this requirement exist?" (backward), "Is this requirement implemented?" (forward), and "Is anything implemented that wasn't required?" (coverage). ## Workflow ### Step 1: Define the traceability scope ``` PROJECT: [name] TRACEABILITY DIRECTION: - Backward (pre-RS): Source -> Business Req -> Stakeholder Req -> Functional Req …

How to install
mdr add qa-aman/claude-skills/traceability-matrix@sha256:20021ef957beaa3dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260323.771ca1c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
