Governance Sync
Goal
Keep governance artifacts truthful with minimal churn.
Non-negotiables
- Read-only. Do not edit files automatically.
- Recommend updates only when triggered by actual changes.
- Be explicit about what changed and why that forces a doc update.
Workflow
- Inspect what changed
- Prefer git diff/summary when available, otherwise use the user’s change summary.
- Determine which artifacts’ truth conditions changed
Common candidates:
- Tree map (Tree.txt / tree.md)
- Roadmap (roadmap.md)
- Architecture docs (ARCHITECTURE.md)
- Agent rules (AGENTS.md)
- Decision log (DECISIONS.md)
- Review queue (REVIEW_QUEUE.md)
- Suggestions log (SUGGESTIONS.md)
- Domain docs (docs/*)
- Output a delta checklist
Output (follow exactly)
