- # Cross-Artifact Analysis

- ## Overview

- Analyze all pipeline artifacts (constitution, specification, plan, tasks) for consistency, coverage, and alignment. This is the pre-implementation quality gate that ensures all artifacts are coherent before code is written.

- ## When to Use

- - After task decomposition, before implementation

- When verifying that all specification requirements have corresponding tasks

- When checking for contradictions between constitution and plan

- When assessing readiness for the implementation phase

## Key Principle

Every specification requirement must be traceable through the plan to at least one task. No artifact should contradict another. Coverage gaps and conflicts must be resolved before implementation.

## Process

1. **Build traceability matrix** - Map requirements -> plan components -> tasks

2. **Detect coverage gaps** - Requirements without corresponding tasks

3. **Identify conflicts** - Contradictory constraints or requirements across artifacts

4. **Verify constitution compliance** - Plan and tasks comply with governance

5. **Check acceptance criteria** - Task criteria match specification requirements

6. **Score consistency** - Numeric score (0-100) across dimensions

7. **Determine readiness** - Boolean assessment for implementation phase

8. **Human review** - Approve analysis results before proceeding
