SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires ai-eng, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a unified approach to validating AI project integrity, ensuring compliance with contracts, defining ownership, and verifying operational readiness, preventing issues before they impact development.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Integrity Checks: Validates manifest counts, agent-skill references, and file existence.
  • Compliance Validation: Ensures hooks, checks, and CI workflows enforce documented rules.
  • Ownership Verification: Confirms files are in correct zones and boundaries are respected.
  • Operational Readiness: Checks for required tools, installed hooks, and initialized state.
  • Use Case: Before merging a critical AI feature, run the governance skill to automatically verify that all new skills are correctly referenced, all required security checks are in place, and the development environment is properly configured.

Quick Start

Run the governance skill to perform a full integrity and compliance check on the current project.

Frequently Asked Questions about governance

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate AI project integrity and compliance before merging new features?▼

Validate AI project integrity by running deterministic checks on manifest counts, agent-skill references, and file existence to ensure all new features are correctly referenced and ready for merge.

What is AI project governance and when do I need compliance validation?▼

AI project governance is the process of verifying operational readiness, ownership boundaries, and compliance with documented CI workflows. You need it before merging critical AI features to enforce security checks and contract compliance.

Do I need the ai-eng CLI to run ownership verification and operational readiness checks?▼

Yes, the ai-eng CLI is required because the governance skill depends on its validation and doctor commands to execute deterministic checks for installed hooks, required tools, and initialized state.

How does compliance validation enforce documented rules in CI workflows?▼

Compliance validation enforces documented rules by ensuring that configured hooks, checks, and CI workflows align with the operational contracts and security boundaries required by the AI project.

What's the best way to verify file ownership boundaries and correct zone placement in an AI project?▼

The best way to verify file ownership is to run a governance check that confirms files reside in their correct zones and that established ownership boundaries are fully respected across the project.

Why does my AI project governance check fail when operational readiness is not initialized?▼

Governance checks fail when operational readiness is not initialized because validation requires all necessary tools to be installed, hooks to be configured, and the environment to be in an initialized state.
