Compliance Audit Readiness Review

Use this skill to convert compliance audit readiness, controls, evidence, sampling, auditor request, exception, and remediation questions into a concrete artifact with owners, gates, metrics, and recovery paths.

Workflow

1. Identify audit framework, scope, period, systems, controls, control owners, evidence sources, auditor timeline, gaps, customer commitments, and trust-center dependencies.
2. Read references/compliance-audit-readiness-patterns.md.
3. Classify work as audit scoping, control mapping, evidence collection, walkthrough prep, sample response, exception remediation, report review, or continuous compliance.
4. Define control matrix, evidence calendar, owner accountability, request workflow, sampling response, gap register, remediation SLA, claim approval, and renewal cadence.
5. Produce audit readiness plan, state machine, decision table, event schema, evidence checklist, and risk/escalation register.

When not to use

• Do not use for generic advice the base model already handles without this skill's specific artifact contract.
