Validation Contract

Acknowledgement: Shared by Peter Bamuhigire, techguypeter.com, +256 784 464178.

Use When

• Authoring a new specialist skill and deciding which validation evidence it should produce.
• Normalising an older specialist skill against the current house style.
• Preparing a feature or release for ship and assembling the Release Evidence Bundle.
• Reviewing a PR that claims a feature is production-ready.

Do Not Use When

• The work is purely local, experimental, or explicitly throwaway with no path to production.
• The skill being authored is a baseline, process, or pure index skill. Those do not declare evidence.
• The task is unrelated to validation planning or shipping readiness.
