One search box, five group headings, prose links. The page below is the index; the search above is the shortcut.
Getting started
If you have ten minutes, start here. The path runs install → first requirement → first link → first baseline.
Concepts
The mental model behind the surface. Read these in order if the product feels opinionated and you want to know why.
- Requirements as code— Why a requirement is a content-addressed object, not a row.
- Traceability is a graph— Typed edges, cycles, anomalies, and why matrices flatten the truth.
- Baselines and history— What a baseline freezes, what it does not, how diff works.
- Audit log discipline— Append-only by construction; what is recorded and what is not.
MCP server
Traceo speaks the Model Context Protocol natively. Your AI authoring environment can read, propose, and validate requirement changes the same way a human reviewer can.
Self-hosting
If your data residency contract requires it, run Traceo inside your perimeter. Single binary plus Postgres; no third-party dependencies at runtime.
API
REST + JSON. Stable surface; deprecations come with a six-month sunset and an entry on the changelog.
