title: Specification validation library
status: in-progress
owners:

---
## Scope
This module defines Kaptan's reusable package build-time validation of formal-specification sidecars and the no_std `no_spec!` exception macro.
Formal Kaptan specifications live next to the file-backed module they govern. For example, `control_loop.rs` is governed by `control_loop.spec.md` in the same directory.
## Sidecar Requirements
Every file-backed Rust module under a validated package's `src/` tree must have exactly one same-name `.spec.md` sidecar or one top-level `no_spec!("reason");` declaration. Missing and duplicate declarations fail the package build.
A package build script invokes `kaptan_spec::validate_package()` with the `std` feature enabled. The validator emits Cargo change-tracking directives for every checked source module and existing sidecar.
`kaptan-spec` is the bootstrap exception because it cannot use itself as a build dependency. Every other Kaptan package must invoke the validator from its build script.
## No-Spec Exceptions
`no_spec!("reason");` is only for a file-backed module that intentionally has no standalone formal specification, such as a crate root that only declares child modules. It applies at module scope, not to types, functions, or individual items.
The exception requires one non-empty, non-whitespace string literal explanation. It expands to compile-time constants and has no runtime cost. A module must not contain both a sidecar and `no_spec!(...)`.
## Specification Record Format
Each sidecar is an append-only record for one governed module or package. An entry starts with this exact version heading:
```markdown
# --- version: 0.1.0 ---
```
The heading is followed by YAML frontmatter containing these required keys:
- `title`
- `status`
- `owners`
Allowed statuses are:
- `in-progress`
- `implemented`
- `deprecated`
Each owner entry uses a full name and email address:
```text
- Full Name <name@example.com>
```
## Traceability and Revisions
The sidecar path identifies the governed module or package. Individual revisions are identified by their version heading. New revisions append a complete new entry to the stable sidecar file; they do not create a new filename.
Within a record entry, `#` is reserved for version headings. Content headings start at `##` or below.
## Entry Template
```markdown
# --- version: 0.1.0 ---
---
title: Replace with title
status: deprecated
owners:
- Full Name <name@example.com>
---
## TODO
