What is the patch lifecycle workflow for traceable repairs?▼

The patch lifecycle enforces a disciplined linear repair workflow with states like open, pending_acceptance, and closed. Worker separation and structured reporting ensure changes remain auditable across cycles.

How do I create and track a patch using the /hw:patch command?▼

Create a new patch by entering /hw:patch followed by a description. Follow the guided linear repair workflow to progress through patch lifecycles from open to closed, ensuring structured reporting.

When should I use a lightweight patch track instead of a full milestone?▼

Use a lightweight patch track for small fixes that do not justify a full milestone. It provides persistent tracking and audit trails across cycles without the overhead of full milestone governance.

Does patch management support worker separation for audit trails?▼

Patch management supports worker separation within its linear repair workflow. This ensures structured reporting and maintains auditable governance across patch lifecycles for small fixes.
