Pre-ship traceability audit - every requirement traced to a phase, plan and verification, orphan detection both directions, a FAIL gate before shipping
name: cad-audit description: "Pre-ship traceability audit - every requirement traced to a phase, plan and verification, orphan detection both directions, a FAIL gate before shipping" argument-hint: "[milestone | defaults to all active requirements]" allowed-tools: - Read - Bash - Grep - Glob - AskUserQuestion
<objective> Before a milestone ships, prove that nothing was silently dropped. Cross- reference every requirement against the phases, plans, and verifications that were supposed to deliver it, and detect orphans in both directions. Produce a PASS/FAIL verdict: FAIL if any requirement is untraced, unverified, or lost.
This is the check that catches the quiet failure a per-phase flow can miss - a requirement that no phase ever picked up (an `unpicked` break counted in `counts.broken`, not a note beside a PASS), or one marked done while its phase never verified. It reads the authoritative status - the REQUIREMENTS traceability table (Requirement | Phase | Status) and the ROADMAP `## Phases` checkbox, the only persisted status. `/cad-plan` creates a table row (always at Pending); no writer but cad-verify ever sets a Status beyond it, and the ROADMAP checkbox is cad-verify's alone. It does not write status itself. </objective>
<execution_context> @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/cadence-core/workflows/audit.md </execution_context>
<process> Run the audit workflow end-to-end and return a clear PASS or FAIL with the evidence. A FAIL is a real gate - report exactly which requirements are untraced, unverified, or orphaned; do not soften it. Read-only: never edit status to make the audit pass. </process>
Appearance is cheap. Verification is the work. Cadence is for developers using Claude Code on software they will still own after the session ends. Claude can write a convincing plan, produce working code, and tell you the job is finished.

Internal role contract, preloaded into every cad-assumptions-analyzer rung agent. Not a user command.
Capture a phase-linked todo, a seed idea for a future milestone, or a note, without losing your place - .planning/CAPTURE.md, or --cadence for friction with…
Configure Cadence's config.json - workflow toggles, the per-role model and effort interview, and interactive cross-model review provider setup
Gather phase context before planning - codebase assumptions, locked decisions, falsifiable acceptance criteria - in one pass
Find a completed phase's requirements with no failing-capable test coverage and generate tests to close the gaps, in the project's own framework
