fix(verify): stop reporting removed requirements as missing - #1962
Conversation
Verify walked every "### Requirement:" in the delta specs and looked for an implementation of each one, whatever section it sat under. A REMOVED requirement that the change had removed correctly came back as CRITICAL "Requirement not found", with a recommendation to implement it. An agent that follows the report puts back the behavior the change just deleted. Verify now notes the delta section of each requirement first. ADDED and MODIFIED keep the existing checks. REMOVED is checked the other way round: finding nothing is the expected result, and it is only critical while the behavior is still in the code. RENAMED only changes a name, so the old name is not reported as missing. Scenario coverage skips removed requirements, since there is nothing left to cover. Archive and sync already handle each section on its own terms; verify was the one step in the loop that did not. Closes Fission-AI#1959

The Spec coverage, Requirement implementation mapping and Scenario coverage scenarios still told the verifier to check every requirement in the delta specs, which contradicts the Removed requirement scenario added in the previous commit. A verifier following them would repeat the Fission-AI#1959 failure.

@coderabbitai good catch, fixed in 0fa39af. The three general scenarios (Spec coverage, Requirement implementation mapping, Scenario coverage) now cover ADDED and MODIFIED requirements only, and Spec coverage points to the Removed and Renamed scenarios for the other two sections. |

Resolve the parity-hash conflict with Fission-AI#1732 by regenerating the three verify hashes from the merged templates. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
With Fission-AI#1732 merged, a change whose delta specs only remove or rename requirements left Requirement Implementation Mapping and Scenario Coverage with nothing to check. The "no usable requirements" rule then marked them not verified, so verify never reported the change ready, the exact case Fission-AI#1959 describes. Those two checks are now not applicable when the readable delta specs hold REMOVED or RENAMED requirements and no ADDED or MODIFIED ones. An empty or unparseable delta still marks them not verified. Keyword matches in openspec/ artifacts, docs, or code that serves only the Migration note or an ADDED requirement are no longer evidence by themselves that a removed requirement is still implemented; a code path that still delivers the removed behavior is reported even when shared. The summary counts removals separately from covered requirements. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Thanks @ryandemelo, this is a real fix. I pushed two commits to get it ready for merge:
Tests: the template suites pass (732), and all 6 new assertions fail without the fix. On the full suite, the only failures are two sandbox-only tests that fail on main too. |

One correctness follow-up is needed before approval.
For a rename-only delta, the current guidance only says not to report the FROM name as missing. It then marks Requirement Implementation Mapping and Scenario Coverage as not applicable, while saying RENAMED entries were settled under Spec Coverage. But Spec Coverage performs no TO-side behavior check. That lets a rename-only change report readiness without verifying that the unchanged requirement behavior is still implemented.
This also falls short of #1959's requested RENAMED semantics: check the new name, while treating absence of the old name as expected.
Please require Spec Coverage to verify the unchanged behavior associated with the TO requirement, using the baseline requirement body/scenarios as evidence where needed and without requiring implementation symbols to be renamed. Mirror that rule in the spec, generated skill and command templates, and add regression coverage for both generated surfaces.
A RENAMED entry only told verify not to report the FROM name as missing, and a rename-only change marked the correctness checks not applicable. Nothing checked that the renamed requirement's behavior was still implemented, so verify could report readiness unchecked. Spec Coverage now reads the baseline requirement from the main spec (under the FROM name, or the TO name once synced) and checks that its behavior is still implemented, without requiring code symbols to be renamed. A missing behavior is CRITICAL "Renamed requirement not found"; an unreadable baseline marks the entry not verified. A TO name that also appears under MODIFIED is still checked there. Regression tests cover the skill template, the command template, and the committed skills/ mirror. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Reviewed the follow-up on 06b3204. Rename-only deltas now verify the unchanged requirement behavior from the baseline spec, handle already-synced TO entries, avoid requiring code-symbol renames, and cannot pass when the baseline is unreadable. The generated skill and command plus the committed skill mirror are covered.
Local verification: 75 targeted tests passed, all 36 strict specs passed, and diff checks are clean. The hosted CI and CodeRabbit checks are green.

### Requirement:in a change's delta specs, whichever section it sat under. So a requirement under## REMOVED Requirementsthat the change had removed correctly came back as CRITICAL "Requirement not found", and the report told the agent to implement it. Following that advice puts back exactly what the change just took out.Verify now notes the delta section of each requirement before checking it. ADDED and MODIFIED requirements get the same checks as today. A REMOVED requirement is checked the other way round: finding no implementation is the expected result, and it only becomes CRITICAL ("Removed requirement still implemented") while the behavior is still in the code, with a pointer to the Migration note if there is one. A RENAMED entry only changes a name, so its old name is no longer reported as missing. Implementation mapping and scenario coverage skip removed requirements, since there is nothing left to cover.
Archive and sync already treat each section on its own terms, so this brings verify in line with the rest of the loop. It is a text change to the verify skill and command templates only; the CLI is untouched.

The committed

#1732 edits the lines just above Spec Coverage in the same file. The two changes do not overlap in meaning, but whichever lands second will need a small rebase, and I'm happy to do it if that is this one.
