# locale-data-spec-conformance

- **Change ID**: locale-data-spec-conformance
- **Package**: `@suaveplan/locale-data`
- **Status**: PROPOSED
- **Type**: spec-conformance
- **Date**: 2026-04-26

## Why

The folded `openspec/specs/locale-data/spec.md` documented the public surface
under prose section headings (`### Countries`, `### Languages`, `### Errors`,
`### Types / Schemas`) with bullet lists of function signatures. The
conformance parser only sees `### Requirement: <name>` or `### CAP-NN —`
headings, so the audit reported "0 requirements parsed". This is a parsing
gap — the implementation already satisfies every clause.

## What changes

- Rewrite `openspec/specs/locale-data/spec.md` from prose-section headings
  to four `### Requirement: <name>` blocks (country lookup, bulk country
  accessors, language lookup, RTL detection) with `**Verified by:**` lines.
- No source changes; no public-surface changes; no new tests required —
  every scenario is already pinned by `src/countries/countries.test.ts`
  and `src/languages/languages.test.ts`.

## Out of scope

- New behaviour. Heading rewrite + verification annotation only.
- Source mapping table — `@suaveplan/locale-data` is genesis-original.

## Verification approach

Every requirement is pinned to existing `it(...)` titles in
`src/countries/countries.test.ts` (15 cases) and
`src/languages/languages.test.ts` (20 cases).

## Migration impact

None — additive metadata only. Public surface unchanged.
