Validates sphinx-needs requirement sets for structural integrity, traceability gaps, and logical consistency.
Pharaoh MECE provides a rigorous structural analysis for Sphinx-Needs documentation projects, ensuring requirement sets are Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive (MECE). Designed for safety-critical domains like ISO 26262 and A-SPICE, it identifies traceability gaps, orphaned requirements, and redundant specifications while validating ID schemes and status consistency. By automating these complex architectural checks, it helps developers maintain audit-ready documentation and catch broken link chains before they become compliance issues.
