govctl-orgOfficial·9 Agent Skills Included

govctl

Governed RFC, ADR, and work item workflows for coding

Turns prompts and code changes into governed RFCs, ADRs, work items, and verification guards. Stops silent spec drift, lost design decisions, and unverified 'done' claims in AI-assisted development. Enforces phase-gated lifecycles and executable completion checks so every change is reviewable and traceable.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema

How to install govctl?▼

Run `npx skills add govctl-org/govctl --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What problem does govctl solve?▼

It prevents AI-generated code from drifting away from specifications by requiring RFCs, ADRs, work items, and verification guards before changes count as done.

Does govctl work with Claude Code and Codex?▼

Yes. It ships native integrations for Claude Code and Codex, installed via `govctl agent install claude` or `govctl agent install codex`.

Can I adopt govctl in an existing project?▼

Yes. The migrate workflow discovers past design decisions in your codebase and backfills ADRs and RFCs incrementally without rewriting history.

Do I need to write governance files by hand?▼

No. Your AI agent drafts RFCs, ADRs, and work items through guided skills, and the govctl CLI validates and renders them automatically.
