Govern AI Coding

An Agent Skill for keeping complex AI-assisted coding changes aligned with project facts, decisions, and evidence.

It resolves document authority before edits begin, then binds semantic review, frozen final content, project validation, and human decisions before work is called complete.

Every governed workspace declares a root README.md as the common navigation starting point for humans and AI. That navigation role does not implicitly make README authoritative for product, architecture, work state, release, or history.

Install in Codex

git clone https://github.com/Odinary-AI/govern-ai-coding.git
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills/govern-ai-coding
cp -R govern-ai-coding/README.md govern-ai-coding/LICENSE \

Use

Before implementation:

Use $govern-ai-coding to govern this change before implementation begins.

Before completion:

Use $govern-ai-coding to close out this change against project facts and evidence.

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or later.
• Git is optional and is used only for Git-backed change inventory.

The Skill does not decide product meaning, architecture meaning, formal release claims, or irreversible archival choices. Generated findings remain evidence until written into the project's mapped authority documents.

See SKILL.md for the complete workflow and the adapter schema for project integration.
