AAW Standard Operating Procedures

This skill ensures all code changes follow the auditable workflow required by enterprise compliance.

Core Principle

All code changes MUST follow the auditable workflow:

/aaw-plan → /aaw-implement → /aaw-test → /aaw-evidence

Workflow Requirements

Phase 1: Planning (Required)

Before ANY code change:

1. Start an audit session with mcp__aawctl__start_session
2. Read and understand policy with mcp__aawctl__read_policy
3. Create a detailed implementation plan
4. Get user approval before proceeding

Never skip planning. Even small changes need documentation.

Phase 2: Implementation (Required)

During code changes:

1. Use mcp__aawctl__exec for ALL shell commands
2. Never use direct Bash tool
3. Provide clear purpose for each execution
4. Follow scope-specific policies
5. Document any deviations from the plan

Phase 3: Testing (Required)

After implementation:

1. Run tests via mcp__aawctl__run_tests
2. Capture test artifacts via mcp__aawctl__capture_artifact
3. Do not proceed if tests fail - report and wait for decision

Phase 4: Evidence (Required)

After successful testing:

1. Generate evidence bundle via mcp__aawctl__bundle_evidence
2. Provide bundle location to user
3. Bundle must be reviewed before deployment

Policy Hierarchy

Global Policy: /aaw.policy.yaml
     ↓
Package Policy: packages/{name}/aaw.policy.yaml
     ↓
(Package policy extends global, can only be MORE restrictive)

Audit ID

Every session has an audit_id. This ID:

• Links all actions in a session
• Must be passed between phases
• Is included in the evidence bundle
• Should be referenced in commit messages

Compliance Checklist

Before marking any task complete, verify:

• Audit session was started
• Policy was checked
• All commands went through aawctl
• Tests were run and passed
• Evidence bundle was generated
