MBD Traceability

Create a design/manifest.yaml in your repo to enable requirement tracing:

version: "1"
project: my-project
requirements:
  - id: REQ-001
    title: Secure password hashing
    category: security
    keywords: [bcrypt, hash, password]
    expectedFiles:
      - src/auth/**

Commits will include Traces-To: REQ-001 trailers automatically.
