Low-risk findings worth noting
Fill the folder for the phase the service is in. Do not fill a later phase early. A production design in Discovery, or a production environment treated as the beta platform in Alpha, fails that phase.
| Folder | Copy it when |
|---|---|
discovery/ | You are defining the problem and can still stop or join another service |
alpha/ | You are testing risky ideas with throwaway prototypes and spikes |
beta/ | Real users are on a private beta, and you are preparing the full 14-point panel |
live/ | The service is running, and you can show operation, research, and published performance since the last assessment |
Where a template asks for something you do not have, write Not held and the owner. An empty heading is missing evidence.
panel/dialogue.md stores the full chat after each question is closed. The panel asks in the conversation, one question at a time. Later assessments read the file with the other evidence.
coverage.md lists the files in each phase and the red lines those files are there to catch. The scoring rules are in the plugin at rules/phase-expectations.md.
