Documenting versioned technology dependencies requires generating a structured dependency map that enforces exact versioning, validates standards, checks security and licensing, and records traceable rationales. This ensures reproducible builds and clear technology governance across deployment models.

A dependency map is a single source of truth capturing explicit, versioned technology choices, deployment models, and compliance considerations. You need one when kicking off large capabilities across multiple services to align architecture, security, and project costs.

To ensure TRD compliance, validate each technology choice against project standards and PROJECT_RULES.md. The dependency map workflow checks standards alignment, security, licensing, and cost considerations, producing gate-driven documentation for reproducible builds.

Yes, this dependency mapping approach works for multi-service environments by generating a single source of truth for technology decisions. It aligns architecture, security, and costs across deployment models while enforcing policy-driven decisions and exact versioning.

To generate PROJECT_RULES.md, run the dependency-map workflow to outline explicit technology choices, versions, and rationales. The workflow outputs gate-driven documentation that captures deployment models, compliance checks, and standards validation for your project.

A technology dependency map includes security checks, licensing validation, and cost considerations as part of its gate-driven documentation. It enforces policy-driven decisions, ensures standards alignment, and records traceable rationales for each explicit technology choice.
