SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This protocol enforces a mandatory debrief audit before builds to ensure traceable, auditable changes and a verifiable audit trail across commits.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • File location & naming: mandates storing debriefs in Notes/docker-claude/debriefs/ and using a consistent debrief-NNNN-keyword-keyword-keyword.md filename pattern.
  • Timing discipline: requires writing the debrief prior to initiating a build and updating it after failures or changes.
  • Structured content: defines required sections (Task Summary, Changes Made, Design Decisions, Build & Test Results, Open Questions / Risks, Suggested Follow-ups) for comprehensive accountability.

Quick Start

Create the first debrief file under Notes/docker-claude/debriefs/ using the debrief-NNNN-keyword-keyword-keyword.md format before requesting a build.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce a mandatory code audit before builds for compliance traceability?

You enforce a pre-build audit by mandating a structured debrief document with defined sections like Task Summary and Changes Made, ensuring changes are reviewed and verified before initiating any build process.

What sections are required in a pre-build debrief for change auditing?

Required debrief sections for change auditing include Task Summary, Changes Made, Design Decisions, Build & Test Results, Open Questions or Risks, and Suggested Follow-ups to ensure comprehensive accountability across commits.

How do I structure debrief filenames for consistent build verification?

Structure debrief filenames for build verification using the debrief-NNNN-keyword-keyword-keyword.md pattern, storing them in a mandated directory like Notes/docker-claude/debriefs/ to maintain a verifiable audit trail.

When do I need to update a build audit debrief during development?

You need to update a build audit debrief prior to initiating a build and after any failures or changes, ensuring the document accurately reflects the current state of commits for compliance reviews.

Does a pre-build debrief protocol work without external dependencies?

Yes, a pre-build debrief protocol works without external dependencies, imposing file location and naming schemes directly within your software development pipeline to enforce timing discipline and structured content.
