What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a comprehensive, battle-tested checklist to validate patches to specs/CONTRACT.md, ensuring consistency, safety, and test coverage across governance documents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces single source of truth for rules and cross‑references to prevent duplication and drift.
  • Detects duplicate enumerations and promotes centralized definitions.
  • Requires acceptance tests for every normative requirement (MUST / SHALL / REQUIRED) and provides guidance on AT blocks.
  • Enforces patch hygiene by labeling and accounting for section references, cross-references, and patch minimality.
  • Tracks cross‑reference validity and drift to maintain contract integrity.
  • Guides handling of threshold changes and boundary testing in contracts.

Quick Start

Review a patch to specs/CONTRACT.md using the checklist:

  • Scan for pasted normative language (MUST, SHALL, REQUIRED) and ensure an AT‑### block exists.
  • Verify there is a single canonical source for each rule and that cross‑references are valid.
  • Check for new or renamed terms and confirm they are defined and test-bound.
  • Confirm patch changes are minimal and well-scoped to reduce churn.
