Move a software change to its next supported delivery state using durable records, observable checks, and the authority already granted. These are model-neutral instructions, not a runtime, scheduler, security boundary, or claim that every model can perform every task.

Start at the requested scope

• Deliver a change: locate its current stage and continue the authorized work.
• Adopt a process: inspect the existing delivery path and propose or implement only the requested improvements. Read adoption and evaluation.
• Audit a process: compare observed practice with required outcomes; return evidence, gaps, and the smallest repairs. Do not implement during a read-only audit.

Do not restart an accepted change at requirements gathering. A small fix can use one issue or PR for its problem, plan, checks, and handoff. Add a separate artifact only when it resolves an actual ownership, review, persistence, or retrieval need. Keep the user's existing document names and formats.
