SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps a repo steward apply the correct governance profile to a software repository and prove that the governance state is fresh, consistent, and verified with real evidence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Governance application: Instantiates the staged governance genome and aligns the repository with the resolved steward profile.
  • Evidence verification: Runs the repo-local verifier to produce a fresh gov rubric report and confirm the required checks are present.
  • Consistency checks: Validates that branch, profile, CI hooks, and stewardship materials agree before a PR or milestone boundary.
  • Use case: A steward preparing a release can use this Skill to confirm governance has not drifted and to record a verifiable boundary outcome.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to apply the staged governance profile, run the repo-local verifier, and summarize whether the repository is freshly governed or blocked.

How do I verify repository governance evidence before a pull request?▼

To verify repository governance evidence before a pull request, you can apply the staged governance profile, run the repo-local verifier, and confirm a fresh gov_rubric_report.v1 exists as proof of compliance.

What is repository stewardship at milestone boundaries?▼

Repository stewardship at milestone boundaries is the process of applying a governance profile and verifying that branch, profile, and CI hooks are consistent to record a verifiable compliance outcome.

How do I check if my software repository governance has drifted?▼

Check if software repository governance has drifted by running the repo-local verifier to validate branch and profile consistency, ensure CI hook presence, and generate a fresh gov_rubric_report.v1.

Do I need a CI hook configured to apply a governance profile?▼

Yes, you need a CI hook configured to apply a governance profile, because the verification process requires branch and profile consistency, CI hook presence, and fresh evidence to confirm compliance.

What does it mean when governance evidence is stale?▼

Governance evidence is stale when the existing compliance records no longer reflect recent repository changes, requiring you to run the local verifier to produce a fresh gov_rubric_report.v1.
