gate-check

Automate phase gate readiness checks by evaluating artifact presence, design reviews, and ADR coverage to produce a formal PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict. This validation confirms whether a project can safely advance to the next development stage.

Phase readiness evaluation is the automated process of certifying that required artifacts and quality checks are complete before transitioning between development stages. You need it to reduce misaligned transitions and surface blockers when moving phases like Pre-Production to Production.

Yes, you can auto-detect the current development stage by omitting the target phase argument. The system will automatically identify the stage and prompt for user confirmation before proceeding with the readiness evaluation.

Yes, phase gate validation supports lean and solo modes as configured. It adapts the readiness evaluation process to accommodate different project management scales and workflows across stages from Concept through Release.

A phase gate check validates required artifact presence, design reviews, ADR coverage, and director coordination requirements. It coordinates parallel director panels and returns actionable blockers to determine readiness for advancing to the next development stage.

Automated phase gating operates specifically across defined stages from Concept through Release and relies on satisfying artifact presence checks and director coordination. It cannot evaluate phases outside this lifecycle or bypass required ADR coverage and design review mandates.
