SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Teams need a recorded, human-made decision that delivered work actually satisfies an approved specification, rather than inferring sign-off from green tests or merged pull requests. This Skill runs the acceptance gate on a devbook chapter and writes the accepted status with its fingerprint fields. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Evidence-Based Review: Shows the built work running against the chapter as evidence, refusing summaries or screenshots as substitutes. - Blocking Condition Checks: Refuses acceptance over open question fences, missing approval records, or lapsed approval hashes. - Three Explicit Outcomes: Takes accept, send back, or decline from a person, writing status: accepted with accepted-by, accepted-at, and accepted-hash only on a human decision. - Use Case: After a feature is implemented against an approved domain chapter, run this Skill to walk a reviewer through the evidence and record their sign-off, or lift a stale acceptance when chapter content has changed. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to accept the delivered work against a specific devbook chapter and record the acceptance decision.

FAQPage Schema
How do I accept a devbook chapter after implementation?▼

Run the chapter-accept flow, which shows the built work against the chapter as evidence, checks for blocking conditions, and asks a person to accept, send back, or decline. On acceptance it writes status accepted with accepted-by, accepted-at, and accepted-hash fields.

What is the difference between chapter approval and chapter acceptance?▼

Approval states the specification is right; acceptance states what was built satisfies it. Acceptance stands on an existing approval record, and both records are removed together when the chapter content changes.

Can a chapter be accepted without prior approval?▼

No. Acceptance requires an approved-by and approved-at record with a current approved-hash matching the chapter fingerprint. If approval is missing or lapsed, the flow routes to chapter-approve first.

Why does acceptance fail when a question fence is open?▼

An open kind: question fence is a blocking condition because devbook's check reports it as an error. The open questions must be resolved before the chapter can be accepted.

What happens to acceptance when chapter content changes?▼

The acceptance and approval records are lifted together in one change: status returns to the ordinary rung and all six metadata fields are deleted. Re-acceptance is a new decision that starts the flow over on the new content.
