SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Gate-check validates whether a project is ready to advance from one development phase to the next by verifying required artifacts and assessing quality criteria.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validates readiness for phase transitions (concept→system design, system design→technical setup, production→polishing, etc.).
  • Produces a structured gating verdict (PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL) with blockers and recommended actions.
  • Integrates with artifact repositories and cross-GDD reviews to ensure alignment before progression.

Quick Start

Ask the gate-check to evaluate the current phase readiness and return a gating verdict with blockers.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify project readiness for phase transitions before moving to the next development stage?

Gate-check verifies phase transition readiness by enforcing artifact presence, design reviews, and accessibility considerations. It checks transitions like concept to system design or production to polishing, delivering a PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict with identified blockers.

What is a phase gate review in product development and how does it validate milestones?

A phase gate review validates milestones by enforcing artifact presence, design reviews, and accessibility considerations before a project advances. Gate-check performs this milestone verification, delivering a structured gating report with a PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict for decision-makers.

Can I use gate-check to validate transitions from system design to technical setup?

Yes, gate-check supports validating transitions from system design to technical setup. It assesses required artifacts and quality criteria across these specific phase boundaries, returning a structured PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict along with blockers and recommended actions.

What's the best way to identify blockers preventing a project from advancing to the next development phase?

To identify blockers preventing advancement, run a gate-check evaluation. It verifies required artifacts and quality criteria, producing a structured gating report that delivers a PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict along with specific blockers and recommended actions for decision-makers.

Does design review and artifact validation require cross-GDD alignment before phase progression?

Yes, design review and artifact validation require cross-GDD alignment before phase progression. Gate-check integrates with artifact repositories and cross-GDD reviews to ensure alignment, enforcing artifact presence and design reviews before delivering a gating verdict.
