etkm-project-standard

To enforce production readiness, load this skill at project initiation to verify a completed Project Card, execute mandatory QC gates, and finalize a proper handoff Brief before any work starts.

A Project Card is a mandatory layer within a six-layer framework required for project packaging. You need it during scoping sessions, production audits, and before any handoffs to Manus or Claude Code to prevent improvisation.

Structure your project workflow by applying the six-layer framework: Project Identity, Project Card, Agent Stack, Gates, Handoff, and Benchmark. This establishes standardized packaging and enforces QC gates before production begins.

Yes, this production standard explicitly loads and coordinates with etkm-brand-kit, etkm-brand-foundation, etkm-format-standards, etkm-deliverable-qc, and etkm-ai-roles to govern production readiness and ensure consistent project packaging.

Yes, this workflow standard applies to new projects, scoping sessions, handoffs to Manus or Claude Code, and quality audits. It prevents improvisation by ensuring a completed Project Card exists before production.

Your project workflow fails because the production standard requires a completed Project Card to establish a locked, standardized packaging layer. Without it, mandatory QC gates cannot execute and handoffs are blocked to prevent improvisation.
