cocotrace SKILL.md skillA

cocotrace from snowflake-labs/cocoplus is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add snowflake-labs/cocoplus/cocotrace@v1.1.0

Pins v1.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Build and query the SHA-256 requirements-to-implementation traceability graph across lifecycle artifacts.

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

# CocoTrace — Requirements-to-Implementation Traceability

## Overview
CocoTrace maintains a directed dependency graph: `bloom.md → discuss.md → spec.md → plan.md → build-output → eval-results`. SHA-256 content hashes detect genuine changes (not timestamp drift from git operations). Staleness propagates downstream from any changed node.

**Why SHA-256, not timestamps:** Rebase and cherry-pick change file mtimes without changing content. SHA-256 only signals real changes.

## Commands

### `$trace build`

1. Execute the `cocotrace/trace-check` contract (deterministic, no LLM, Tier 2 async)
2. Read output `lifecycle/trace.json`
3. Display summary table:

   ```
   Artifact        Status    SHA-256
   ──────────────  ────────  ──────────
   bloom.md        current   abc12345
   discuss.md      stale     def67890
   spec.md         stale     (downstream of discuss.md)
   plan.md         missing   —
   build-output    missing   —
   eval-results    missing   —
   ```

4. Create git commit: `chore(cocotrace): update artifact traceability graph`
5. Output: "[N] current, [M] stale, [P] missing"

**Idempotent:** Running twice on unchanged content produces bit-identical `trace.json`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add snowflake-labs/cocoplus/cocotrace@sha256:840f87bc0094c1c2

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
