description	Use when creating the named SDLC artefact; use the nearest phase neighbour when it owns a different decision or deliverable.
metadata	{"portable":true,"compatible_with":["claude-code","codex"]}

Skill name

State the procedure's purpose and the concrete SDLC deliverable it controls.

Use When

• Name a concrete positive trigger.
• Name the lifecycle state that makes this procedure applicable.

Do Not Use When

• Name the nearest neighbour and the condition that routes there.
• Do not run when a required decision owner or source artefact is absent.

Required Inputs

Artefact	Source or provider	Required?	Behaviour when missing
Project context	projects/<ProjectName>/_context/	Yes	Stop and identify the missing source file.

Workflow

1. Inspect the required inputs and record the sources used.
2. Apply the domain decisions and produce the named artefact.
3. Stop when a required source, decision owner, or test oracle is absent.
4. Recover by returning the narrowest qualified draft and a specific gap list.

Outputs

Artefact	Consumer	Acceptance condition
Named deliverable	Downstream phase owner	Required sections, trace links, and deterministic acceptance checks are present.

Evidence Produced

Evidence	Reviewer	Acceptance condition
Source and validation record	Delivery reviewer	Paths, checks, failures, and unresolved gaps are recorded.

Capability and permission boundaries

Read and search are required. Editing is allowed only when the request authorises document creation or repair. Publishing, production mutation, destructive action, spending, and certification claims require explicit authority.

Degraded mode

If a required file, tool, network source, renderer, or execution capability is unavailable, return the narrowest useful qualified result and mark the check not assessed; never convert it into a pass.

Decision Rules

Choice or condition	Action	Failure or risk avoided
Required source is present and current	Continue and cite it in the evidence record.	Unsupported requirements.
Required source is absent	Stop or issue a qualified draft with the gap named.	Fabricated context.

Quality Standards

• Tie each requirement or decision to project context and a deterministic review or test oracle.
• Apply the repository anti-slop gate before release.

Anti-Patterns

• Inventing a missing requirement. Fix: stop and request or flag the source gap.
• Treating a template heading as evidence. Fix: cite the populated project artefact.
• Declaring an unexecuted check passed. Fix: mark it not assessed.
• Hiding a neighbour collision. Fix: state the routing boundary in the description and triggers.
• Publishing or mutating production without authority. Fix: return a reviewable draft or plan.
