gate-check

Phase validation for game development checks if required artifacts, quality standards, and blockers meet gate criteria before moving between phases. It analyzes design documents and architecture records to ensure readiness for transitions like Concept to Systems Design.

A gate check is a structured validation process ensuring a project is ready to transition between development phases. It verifies existence and content of design documents, architecture records, and resolves blockers to confirm adherence to quality standards.

Run a gate check for a specific phase by executing the skill with the target phase argument, such as '/gate-check production'. This triggers validation of artifacts, quality standards, and blockers for that phase transition.

Yes, phase validation performs artifact verification by checking the existence and content of required project artifacts. It specifically analyzes design documents and architecture records to confirm they meet the current phase gate criteria.

Yes, the gate check process includes a Director Panel Assessment that gathers comprehensive feedback for the review. It collects input from specialized Creative, Technical, Producer, and Art directors to validate phase readiness.

When blockers are found during phase validation, the Skill informs the user of the verification status and suggests specific actions for resolving the issues. This ensures adherence to quality standards before advancing the project.
