Feature Request: Integration with Verification

Problem Description

There is a gap between "Intent" (Spec) and "Implementation" (Code). Specs can become outdated if not enforced, and code can drift from the spec without detection.

Proposed Solution

1. Executable Scenarios: Automatically translate spec scenarios into unit/integration tests (Jest, Playwright).
2. CI Integration: Reject merges if spec-derived tests fail.
3. Spec vs. Implementation Validator: Compare code structure/logic against the spec to flag mismatches.

Benefits

• "Living Specs" that are always true.
• Prevents regressions.
• Automates the boring part of test writing.

Industry Inspiration

• Traycer: "Automated Code Verification" - verifying AI-generated code against the spec.
• OpenSpec Community: Requests for generating specs from tests and vice-versa.
