Use when reviewing a PR to tractorjuice/arc-kit that adds or extends a community jurisdictional overlay (e.g. au-*, ca-*, uae-*, fr-*, at-*, eu-*, future state-level like au-vic-*) — produces a structured review with blockers, important issues, minor issues, and positive callouts.
PR Review — Community Overlay (ArcKit)
Reviews ArcKit community-overlay PRs (xx-* jurisdictional command bundles) against the integration checklist that catches the recurring failure classes. Encodes the checklist used on PR #441 (au-federal) which surfaced 4 blockers and 6 important issues that the author had missed.
When to Use
PR adds new community overlay (e.g. au-federal, ca-federal-fitaa, future au-vic-*)
PR extends an existing overlay (new xx-* command, new recipe target)
PR ships a new build recipe alongside xx-* commands
Author is contributor (not maintainer) and PR is large (10+ files, 5K+ lines)
Skip for: official-baseline command changes, plugin infrastructure, hooks, agents — these have their own review surfaces.

The 5 recurring blocker classes
These are the failure modes that recur across overlay PRs. Check each, in order:
B1 — Templates lack ## Document Control heading
Symptom: Templates have <!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER --> directly under the > **Template Origin**… blockquote with no ## Document Control heading above.
Why it matters: The partial (document-control-uk.md / document-control-uae.md) is just the table — it has no heading. After inlining, artefact has a Document Control table with no section heading.
Verification:
for f in plugins/arckit-claude/templates/<prefix>-*-template.md; dohead -10 "$f" | grep -q "^## Document Control" || echo"MISSING heading: $f"done
Working precedent:plugins/arckit-claude/templates/ca-pia-template.md:5-7 and uae-pdpl-template.md:5-7 both have ## Document Control\n\n<!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER -->\n<!-- Resolved at command-execution time per _partials/RENDERING.md. -->.
B2 — Commands don't override the UK classification line
Symptom: Overlay introduces a non-UK classification scheme (Canadian Protected/A/B/C, AU UNOFFICIAL/PROTECTED, etc.) but commands say only Resolve the <!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER --> marker per RENDERING.md. — no instruction to substitute the classification line.
Why it matters:plugins/arckit-claude/templates/_partials/RENDERING.md only routes governance_framework: UAE Federal or classification_scheme: UAE Smart Data to a non-UK partial. Everything else falls back to document-control-uk.md which renders [PUBLIC / OFFICIAL / OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE / SECRET]. Without an explicit override, the body content (which references the AU/CA/etc. ladder) becomes inconsistent with the header.
Verification:
grep -L "classification scheme\|UK line in the header" arckit-<prefix>/commands/<prefix>-*.md
# Files printed = files MISSING the override
Working precedent:plugins/arckit-ca/commands/ca-pia.md:32:
Use the Canadian classification scheme (UNCLASSIFIED / Protected A / Protected B / Protected C / CONFIDENTIAL / SECRET / TOP SECRET) — replace the standard UK line in the header.
Proper long-term fix (separate PR): ship a document-control-<regime>.md partial, extend RENDERING.md routing, extend plugin.json userConfig to accept the regime governance framework value.
Why it matters: Script signature is PROJECT_ID DOC_TYPE [VERSION] [OPTIONS]. With one positional arg, TYPECODE is read as PROJECT_ID and DOC_TYPE is empty.
Working precedent:plugins/arckit-ca/commands/ca-pia.md:32:
scripts/bash/generate-document-id.sh <PROJECT_ID> PIA --filename
Note:uae-* commands share this bug. Worth fixing in the same sweep.
B4 — Converter outputs are stale
Symptom: Re-running python scripts/converter.py on the PR branch produces drift on files that were not the focus of the PR (commonly arckit-pages variants).
Why it matters: Author may have run the converter at branch creation and not re-run after rebasing main. Result: variants regress to an older version of canonical commands.
Verification:
git checkout pr-<N>
python scripts/converter.py
git status --porcelain | grep -v "memory/"# Should be empty. Anything printed = stale converter output in the PR.
Cross-check: Run the same on main first to confirm main itself is clean (otherwise the drift isn't the PR's fault).
Fix: ask author to rebase on main, re-run converter, and amend.
B5 — Regime not registered in REGIMES / REGIME_LABELS
Symptom: New regime: '<XX>' declared on each new doc-type entry in plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs, but the <XX> code is missing from the exported REGIMES array and/or REGIME_LABELS object.
Why it matters: Per-record regime: controls which bucket each artefact falls into, but consumers iterating REGIMES (dashboards, group headers, navigator UI) silently skip the unregistered jurisdiction. The HIGH_SEVERITY_BY_REGIME derivation has a fallback so the local file still works — but downstream consumers don't. Symptom is invisible in unit tests.
Verification:
# Confirm the new regime code appears in BOTH the array and the labels object.# Anchor on the export blocks (avoids matching every doc-type entry as noise).
grep -nA 1 "^export const REGIMES" plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs
grep -nA 12 "^export const REGIME_LABELS" plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs
# Then cross-check against the regime values declared on new doc-types
grep -oE "regime: '[A-Z]+'" plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs | sort -u
Working precedent: PR #441 (au-federal) added both 'AU' and 'CA' (the latter a corrective for an earlier omission), e.g. plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs:165-179. Note the REGIME_LABELS ordering convention is officially-maintained-first then community alphabetical.
Discovered in: Test review of merged PR #432 (ca-federal-fitaa) where 12 doc-types declared regime: 'CA' but the REGIMES array shipped without 'CA'. Bug shipped and was only fixed retroactively in #441.
Integration checklist
Beyond the 4 blockers, verify:
Check
Where
What to verify
Doc-types registered
plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs
All new type codes present, correct category (Compliance/Governance/Procurement), correct regime. Regime registered in REGIMES + REGIME_LABELS (B5). Severity-HIGH check: grep "severity: 'HIGH'" plugins/arckit-claude/config/doc-types.mjs | grep "regime: '<XX>'" — assessment-class types (PIA-equivalent, AI-assurance, FITAA-equivalent, ITSG-equivalent) should be HIGH.
New [COMMUNITY] section with command table, type codes, recipe link, "help wanted" call.
CHANGELOG entry
CHANGELOG.md
Unreleased entry. Verify command count math:ls plugins/arckit-claude/commands/*.md | wc -l should match the post-PR total.
Overlay guide
docs/guides/<recipe>-overlay.md
Exists. Check that the governance_framework / classification_scheme userConfig values it tells users to set are actually wired through RENDERING.md (per B2).
Citation traceability
plugins/arckit-claude/references/citation-instructions.md referenced from each command
Inline [DOC_ID-CN] markers required when reading external docs/MCP/web. Often missing — flag as IMPORTANT, not BLOCKER (precedent across all overlays).
Per-command checklist
For each new xx-* command file:
Frontmatter:description present. No invalid fields (name:, color:, permissionMode:, tools: are NOT valid plugin command frontmatter — name: in particular is a common contributor mistake; filename is source of truth).
$ARGUMENTS placeholder present in body — tests/plugin/test_commands_structure.py::test_arguments_placeholder_present checks this. Existing ca-*/uae-* commands fail this test (32 known failures); new overlay commands should pass.
create-project.sh lookup — only required for project-bootstrapping commands (principles, requirements, the first command someone runs). Most overlay commands assume the project already exists and skip this; that matches the FR/AT/EU/CA precedent. Not a defect when absent.
generate-document-id.sh invoked correctly (B3).
<!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER --> resolution instruction (B2 — should override classification when not UK/UAE).
Write tool used to save artefact (32K output token limit otherwise).
Handoffs: every handoffs.command value resolves to a real file in plugins/arckit-claude/commands/. Common bug: pluralisation (risks vs risk); deps on commands shipping in sibling PRs. Validation needs YAML parsing (handoffs are nested under YAML frontmatter — raw grep misses), e.g.:
import yaml, glob, pathlib
cmds = {pathlib.Path(p).stem for p in glob.glob('plugins/arckit-claude/commands/*.md')}
for f in glob.glob('arckit-<prefix>/commands/<prefix>-*.md'):
fm = yaml.safe_load(open(f).read().split('---')[1])
for h in (fm or {}).get('handoffs', []):
if h['command'] notin cmds: print(f, '→', h['command'])
Template path references ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/<name>-template.md with templates-custom then .arckit/templates/ fallback.
A small number of intentional comparison references is fine (PR #441 had 2 in au-dss.md + au-pia.md) — author should call them out in the PR body. Anything else is leakage.
Tests + CI
Run pytest tests/plugin/ and check for new failures specific to this PR's files.
If PR adds .github/workflows/* (first-time CI), run the full suite locally and report pre-existing failure count to the author.
If PR adds a recipe-validation test, verify it codifies the headline scorecard claims (target count, deps, doc-types registration, regime registration, pages allow-list).

Posting the review
Use the heredoc form so the markdown renders correctly:
PR #432 (ca-federal-fitaa, merged 2026-05-05) — fixture for B5 (regime registration). Shipped 12 doc-types with regime: 'CA' while 'CA' was missing from the REGIMES array. Bug only surfaced retroactively in #441. Validates the skill against an already-merged overlay where B1–B4 all PASS but a different blocker class exists.
