SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The risk-scorer create-risk skill addresses the manual and error-prone process of logging persistent risks in a governance program. It helps teams systematically discover existing risks, gather consistent context (impact, likelihood, controls) via interactive prompts, and write a new risk entry file that aligns with docs/risks/TEMPLATE.md, while ensuring the risk register index is updated.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discover existing risks in docs/risks/ and determine the next available slot.
  • Gather context via AskUserQuestion prompts and derive metadata (ID, category, dates).
  • Generate a new risk file under docs/risks/ with a standardized template and update docs/risks/README.md.
  • Update the risk register and provide a change history and traceability.

Quick Start

Invoke the risk-scorer create-risk workflow and provide the required prompts to generate a new risk entry and update the risk register.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new standing risk entry and update the risk register?

To create a new standing risk entry, the skill identifies the next available slot in docs/risks/, gathers context via interactive prompts, and writes a new active risk file while updating the risk register README.md.

What is the process for calculating inherent and residual risk scores for a governance risk?

Calculating inherent and residual risk scores happens during the risk entry creation process, where the skill derives metadata from user-provided context like impact, likelihood, and existing controls to populate the standardized risk file.

How do I ensure my new risk file aligns with existing risk policy and ADRs?

To ensure your new risk file aligns with existing risk policy and ADRs, the skill reads existing risk files and governance documentation before populating the new entry to maintain consistency and traceability.

Do I need a specific template format to log persistent risks in a governance program?

You need the existing docs/risks/TEMPLATE.md format to log persistent risks. The skill automatically generates the new risk file using this standardized template to ensure governance consistency.

What metadata is required when adding a new active risk to the risk register?

Required metadata when adding a new active risk includes the risk ID, category, ownership, next review cadence, and computed inherent and residual risk scores, all gathered through interactive AskUserQuestion prompts.

Can I assign risk ownership and review cadence automatically when scoping a new risk?

Yes, you can assign risk ownership and record the next review cadence when scoping a new risk. The skill captures this context interactively and writes it directly into the active risk file.
