| name | fork-readiness-audit |
| description | Use this skill before scaffolding any fork, before opening a fork PR, or whenever verifying that pre-fork gate conditions are met. Trigger when: the Fork Scaffolding agent is about to create a fork, when checking whether a fork is ready to launch, or when any agent needs to verify which pre-fork issues remain open. Run this skill first and get a documented pass/fail before any fork scaffolding begins. A partial fork creates more remediation work than waiting. |
Fork Readiness Audit
Run this checklist in full before scaffolding any fork. Every gate item must pass and be documented. A single unresolved P0 or P1 gate item blocks scaffolding.
Universal gates (required before ANY fork)
These must be closed before any of the three forks are scaffolded.

Launch sequence recommendation
- Fork 2 (Rational→Pluralistic) — most content ready; launch first
- Fork 1 (Amber→Rational) — amber-shadow module is the key remaining gate
- Fork 3 (Pluralistic→Integral) — three bridge modules must be created first; launch last
