This Skill prevents moving forward in a game project without the required design, technical, production, and QA artifacts in place, reducing costly rework and phase derailment.

Phase gating in game development validates project readiness by checking required artifacts and quality criteria before advancing between stages like concept, pre-production, production, and polish. It produces a PASS, CONCERNS, or FAIL verdict with specific blockers to prevent costly rework.
To check project readiness for advancing to the production phase, you run a gate-check validation against required design, technical, and QA artifacts like GDDs, ADRs, and playtest evidence. It deterministically verifies file structures and flags missing or incomplete content.
Required artifacts for a phase gate review include Game Design Documents (GDDs), Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), tests, playtest reviews, and QA evidence. The gate verifies both the presence and meaningful content of these files to ensure phase readiness.
Yes, you can optionally run parallel director panel assessments for phase readiness validation. The gate synthesizes domain readiness signals from Creative, Technical, Producer, and Art directors to combine their assessments into the final recommendation.
Gate-check requires a YAML-specified configuration to validate phase transitions. This configuration drives deterministic file-structure checks via reading and globbing to locate required artifacts and assess whether the project meets the criteria to advance.
When a phase gate passes and the user confirms, the system updates the production/stage.txt file with the new stage name. This stage progression update records the transition, such as moving from Systems Design to Technical Setup or Production to Polish.
