What this module owns
Production standards tend to live across templates, review checklists, and platform knowledge. That makes readiness depend on who reviews a release and whether they remember every requirement. This module applies a named standards pack consistently, gathers evidence for every failure, and routes exceptions through an explicit waiver. Good looks like every production service carrying an accountable owner, operational evidence, and a current readiness verdict before traffic depends on it.The workflows inside it
This module contains 3 workflows.Pre-release readiness gate
Starts when a release candidate is ready. It selects the standards that apply to the service, scores the candidate, gathers evidence for each failed standard, and either passes the release, blocks it, or routes a scoped waiver for approval.Standards drift sweep
Runs nightly across production services. It selects the applicable standards for each service, compares the new score with the previous run, and notifies owners when a service regresses after its initial release.New service onboarding review
Starts from a new-service request. It checks the requirements needed before traffic is enabled, records the evidence behind the verdict, and creates owned follow-up work for any gaps.What it needs connected
Enabling it
1
Open Modules → Overview
Production Readiness & Standards appears in the AI Software Operations family with the three
workflows it contains.
2
Review the configured module
Open the module from your sidebar and choose the standards pack and service scope for each
workflow.
3
Set gate and waiver policy
Choose whether a failing score blocks, warns, or only records a result, then set who may grant
a waiver and when that waiver expires.
What you see when it runs
The module lists readiness reviews and standards regressions. Each record shows the service, standards pack, score, verdict, failed requirements, and evidence collected for each one. A blocked release that permits an exception carries the requested waiver, approver, and expiry alongside the original failure.Next steps
