protected-surface-amend

To generate a compliance record for a protected surface configuration change, provide the target file path, change description, rationale, governing roadmap reference, and explicit diff plan to produce a verified governance amendment block.

A protected surface edit in regulatory compliance refers to modifying security-critical files, invariants, or workflows that require explicit governance approval, structured documentation, and an audit trail to prevent unauthorized changes.

Document approval authority and scope for security-critical file modifications by creating a structured markdown block detailing the change rationale, governing roadmap reference, authorizer, and explicit diff plan to ensure accountability.

Before amending a critical module invariant, you need a detailed change description, a explicit diff plan, the governing roadmap reference, and verified approval authority to ensure regulatory compliance and avoid governance gaps.

No, a governing roadmap reference is required to verify scope and align the protected surface edit with governance policies, preventing poorly scoped modifications and ensuring proper accountability and audit trail generation.

If an audit trail is not generating for protected-surface-amend, you are likely missing required inputs such as the explicit diff plan, change rationale, or verified approval authority needed to produce the compliance markdown block.
