SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Projects stall or drift when decision-making authority, escalation paths, and change control are undefined. This Skill produces a complete, signable governance framework document so every stakeholder knows who decides what, when, and how. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Governance Structure Generation: Defines steering committees, project boards, and architecture review boards with membership, quorum, and responsibilities. - Decision Authority Matrix: Maps budget, scope, schedule, and technical decisions to the correct approval level with thresholds. - Change Control & RACI: Produces change request templates, classification rules, phase gates, and a full RACI matrix for project activities. - Use Case: After your roadmap and work breakdown structure are signed, run this Skill to produce the Phase 7 governance document that downstream development skills (tech-doc, code-standards, defect-log) depend on. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create the governance framework document for your project once the roadmap and work breakdown structure are signed.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a project governance framework document?▼

Provide the project name, organization structure, decision-making culture, regulatory requirements, and change control needs. The Skill generates a full governance framework covering governance bodies, decision authority, RACI matrices, change control, and escalation paths.

What documents must exist before generating a governance document?▼

The roadmap and work breakdown structure documents from Phase 6 planning must exist and be signed. The Skill blocks execution and reports which prerequisite is unsigned if either is missing.

What does a decision authority matrix include?▼

It maps decision types such as budget, scope, schedule, resource, technical, and risk decisions to approval levels based on impact thresholds, routing minor decisions to the PM and major ones to the steering committee.

Who approves the governance document?▼

The Product Owner holds final approval authority over the governance document. The Project Manager and PMO review completeness and organizational compliance but do not gate the signature.

Why is the governance document blocked from signing?▼

Signing is blocked if prerequisites are unsigned, the document is not at its canonical path, placeholders remain, sections are empty, the document ID is malformed, or cross-references point to missing documents.
