What each solution can do
- Capability Partial
Governed IT definition inventory
Maintain a shared IT inventory whose typed definitions, review decisions and access responsibilities stay connected across framework views. Browser authoring, tenant/object policy and identity synchronization remain planned beyond the existing authentication foundations.
Addresses Pain points(4)
- The architecture repository is out of date the day it’s written.
- Anything can change anything — there is no approval trail.
- Reviewers work from different selections and lose related decisions across meeting notes.
- Architecture, compliance, and quality tools don’t speak to each other.
Supports Values(10)
- Keep consequential changes attributable
- Keep governance closer to its evidence.
- Give AI attributable context.
- A shared workspace for IT decisions.
- Make shared context attributable.
- Use evidence to inform revisions.
- Make transitions inspectable.
- Separate exploration from acceptance.
- Repeatable review boundaries
- Coherent records of related decisions

IT governance fabric composition
Compose selected frameworks and internal obligations against a shared IT inventory, review overlaps and gaps, and retain revision-bound adoption decisions. Composition does not itself evaluate or enforce compliance.

Evidence-backed IT definition sourcing
Reconcile evidence-backed candidates from selected code revisions into reviewable IT definition drafts, with collection coverage, source age and recoverable runs visible throughout. Analysis and client-owned draft registration are planned; inspected source is not deployed reality.

Scoped IT compliance evaluation
Appraise scoped IT definitions, carry versioned findings into accountable corrective reviews, and reappraise revised proposals. Preserve applicability and unknown states; continuous live-system assurance additionally requires observations and scheduling.

IT dependency analysis and decision support
Assess proposed IT changes by combining dependency and obligation paths with cited, read-only answers over authorized definitions. Planned analysis exposes missing boundaries and insufficient evidence; causal simulation additionally needs validated scenario dynamics and explicit uncertainty.

IT artifact generation
Turn a selected IT baseline into consistent architecture and evidence document families, then review outputs against the definitions and decisions they cite. Recurring production retains pinned inputs and exposes incomplete jobs; generation is not substantive acceptance.

Governance lifecycle controls
Control the progression from closed evidence collection to reviewed and activated definition revisions, keeping board sealing separate from approval. Existing transition controls need acceptance for identity-bound decisions, graded validation and concurrent intake integrity; committed-change notifications are a planned extension.

Collaborative contribution intake
Give collaborating sources a shared intake and retained evidence history so clients can compare contributions and revisit the basis for candidate selection. Panels and storage exist; end-to-end validation, complete auditing, client reconciliation and authorized draft promotion remain integration boundaries.

Scoped Norm verdict evaluation
Combine access to versioned governed definitions with pure applicability and assertion evaluation over pinned rules and supplied instances. Planned verdicts preserve non-evaluable states and support comparison of proposed rules without dispatching effects; coherent input selection needs acceptance, and running-system claims additionally require observations.

Bounded Mechanism execution
Translate eligible Mechanism definitions into effects through selected technology adapters under explicit execution and transport contracts. Existing execution and adapters need acceptance for atomic frames, caller authority, budgets, cancellation and partial or unknown outcome receipts; wider adapters are optional.

Governed context for AI
Supply AI clients with a shared, versioned definition context through direct APIs and planned MCP access, combining policy-filtered selection with bounded operations. API foundations exist; authorized selection and evaluated tool/answer boundaries still need acceptance. Direct authoring does not require sourcing.

Systemic primitive vocabulary
Describe structure, behavior, interactions and governance through eight common subject types whose domain vocabulary and constraints are expressed by Archetypes. This supplies a typed basis for scoped system modeling, not proof that the fixed core is universally adequate.

Open domain typing
Extend domain vocabulary and constraints with governed Archetypes grounded in the fixed GSM subject types, while the Ascription lifecycle gives changes versioned review and activation semantics. Extension does not add subject types; processors must implement the specified typing and lifecycle rules.

Governance grammar and lifecycle
Connect governance scope and evaluable constraints to immutable snapshots that progress through review, activation, suspension and retirement. Current DNA grammar and lifecycle content exist in source, with publication pending; enforcement belongs to processors, and future grammar extensions require accepted Change Proposals.

Selected framework and regulation sourcing
Bring selected architecture, quality, security and regulatory concerns into a common governance vocabulary with reviewable source mappings and reusable templates. Existing content is selectively scoped and legal templates remain unbound; adopter interpretation, full coverage, future frameworks and update delivery are separate responsibilities.

Describe IT subjects, their protocol interactions and evidence attribution using reusable domain and protocol vocabulary. Selected HTTP, IT and PROV content exists, while other protocols are planned; these schemas neither dispatch interactions nor populate or verify provenance automatically.

Profile-scoped definition interchange
Specify definition interchange that preserves subject types, Archetype constraints, governance relationships and lifecycle meaning across an explicit conformance profile. Qualification compares processor exports and imports; independent compatibility evidence and preservation of nonconformant DRAFTs remain gates before complete-migration claims.

Research-informed model evolution
Connect hypotheses about system behavior and governance to case evidence, recorded decisions and proposed model revisions. Research records support scrutiny, not accepted semantics: conceptual cases differ from executed experiments, and normative evolution requires discriminating evidence and accepted Change Proposals.

Scoped artifact contract checks
Turn shared artifact schemas and templates into checks on mediated write sets so delivery outputs can be validated against declared contracts. Structured-data and Markdown-metadata checks exist; contract resolution, parsing and atomicity remain integration boundaries, while substantive prose quality and unmediated writes are outside their coverage.

Agentic SAFe operating model
