Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM)¶

The RTM links every user requirement to its functional specification item, the design element that implements it, and the qualification evidence that verifies it. Bidirectional traceability is a Category 5 expectation; this matrix is the single point of truth for coverage.
Functional trace¶
| URS | FS | Design (SDS) | Verified by | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| URS-F01 native substrate | FS-01 | VQbitVM / VQbit module | OQ-001 vm.ready | in-app runner |
| URS-F02 sovereign autonomy | FS-02 | FranklinConsciousnessService heartbeat | OQ-005 awakening | V184 rows |
| URS-F03 operator CLI | FS-03 | gaiaftcl projection ingestion |
MQ + CLI Reference | CLI suite |
| URS-F04 algorithm rail | FS-04 | C⁴ rail inside vQbit VM | MQ (algorithm eval) | V181 history |
| URS-F05 self-custody wallet | FS-05 | FranklinLocalWallet (V209/V210) | Wallet PQ Proof | V209/V210 |
| URS-F06 post-quantum demo | FS-06 | shor / wallet pq commands | V188 → V189 → V190 | sealed rows |
Data-integrity trace¶
| URS | FS | Design | Verified by | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| URS-D01 append-only | FS-D01 | UPDATE/DELETE abort triggers | IQ schema check + MQ | trigger tests |
| URS-D02 tamper-evidence | FS-D02 | canonical_witness + SHA-256 | MQ witness tests | witness hashes |
| URS-D03 attribution | FS-D03 | signature_quintet | federation verify | cosignatures |
| URS-D04 exact arithmetic | FS-D04 | IntRational | MQ rational tests | exact-Rat suite |
| URS-D05 replay | FS-D05 | V172 anchors | PQ replay | qc020 replay |
Security / compliance / performance trace¶
| URS | FS | Verified by |
|---|---|---|
| URS-S01 key non-exposure | FS-S01 | Security audit gate |
| URS-S02 no non-mainnet path | FS-S02 | pre-commit audit grep |
| URS-S03 bounded authority | FS-S03 | Config Spec |
| URS-C01 self-qualification | — | IQ/OQ/PQ/MQ runner — 156 + 18–19 checks |
| URS-C02 constitutional floor | FS-C02 | V174 evaluations |
| URS-C03 Part 11 audit trail | — | Data Integrity & Part 11 |
| URS-P01 host-aware capacity | FS-P01 | OQ/PQ capacity tests |
| URS-P02 release gate | — | 18–19/19 in-app CALORIE |
Coverage statement¶
Every URS item traces forward to at least one FS item and one verification activity; every qualification check in the Qualification Catalog traces back to an FS/URS item. No orphan requirements; no untraced tests.
