FAQPage Schema
How do I safely review and apply changes to skill and preference candidates?

To safely apply candidates, use a strict preview-approve-apply workflow that reads candidate metadata and change history, requiring explicit confirmation before writing any modifications to target files.

How does a preview-approve-apply workflow prevent unintended writes?

A preview-approve-apply workflow prevents unintended writes by enforcing explicit user confirmation at each stage, ensuring no candidate is synchronized to formal assets without direct approval and preserving auditable traces.

What is the best way to keep an auditable change history when synchronizing skill preferences?

Keeping an auditable change history during synchronization requires recording change logs and preserving audit evidence when applying candidates, ensuring all modifications remain traceable and controlled.

Can I use this candidate management workflow without any external dependencies?

Yes, you can use this candidate management workflow without external dependencies, as it operates independently to review, preview, approve, and apply skill and preference candidates.

Why does applying a candidate fail without explicit confirmation?

Applying a candidate fails without explicit confirmation because the workflow is designed to prevent unintended modifications, strictly blocking any synchronization to formal assets until approval is granted.

What is candidate lifecycle management for skill assets?

Candidate lifecycle management for skill assets is the process of reviewing, previewing, approving, and applying existing skill or preference candidates to their formal assets while maintaining change traceability.
