Approval Governor

Apply approval discipline without turning every task into bureaucracy.

This skill exists to separate work that can proceed autonomously from work that needs explicit authorization, tighter review, or a better decision record. Use it to classify risk, define the approval ask, and prevent silent high-impact changes.

Scope

Use this skill for:

• approval gating before roster changes
• role, ownership, or permission changes
• structural reconfiguration of teams, systems, or routing
• destructive or difficult-to-reverse actions
• policy exceptions
• risk-based escalation decisions
• drafting concise approval requests
• documenting why a guarded action should proceed, wait, or be denied
