SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

## What problem does it solve? This skill provides a governance mechanism to decide whether mutating actions in board-superpowers should auto-execute or wait for architect approval, ensuring safe and auditable changes to cards, PRs, configs, and credentials.

## Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decision-table authority for every mutating action.
  • 5-step triage rule to escalate Auto actions when needed.
  • Dual-layer overrides (user and project) with project layer precedence.
  • Uses matrix.md and action-id catalogs to derive final autonomy class.

Quick Start

Provide an action_id and repo_root to obtain the final autonomy class (A, R, or N) after applying default matrix, triage rules, and overrides.

Frequently Asked Questions about classifying-actions

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I determine if a mutating action should auto-execute or require architect approval?

To classify mutating actions for auto-execution or architect approval, provide an action_id and repository root to apply a 5-step triage rule and decision matrix, returning an effective autonomy class of A, R, or N.

How do user and project autonomy overrides interact when classifying board-superpowers actions?

Autonomy overrides for classifying board-superpowers actions use a dual-layer system where project-layer overrides take precedence over user-layer overrides during conflicts to compute the final action class.

What happens when parsing fails during a mutating-action triage decision?

When parsing fails during a mutating-action triage decision, the classification applies a conservative fallback to ensure safe governance, defaulting to a restrictive autonomy class rather than auto-executing.

What inputs do I need to start triaging mutating actions for governance decisions?

To start triaging mutating actions for governance decisions, you need to provide a valid action_id and a repository root path to consult the action catalogs and derive the final class.

Can I escalate an auto-action to require architect approval using triage rules?

Yes, you can escalate Auto actions to require architect approval by applying the 5-step triage rule, which evaluates specific conditions to override the default decision matrix classification.

What is the decision matrix used for governing mutating actions in repositories?

The decision matrix serves as a rulebook authority for governing mutating actions, using matrix.md and action-id catalogs to derive the final autonomy class for safe and auditable repository changes.
