# PMOSkills Repository — Master Development Plan
**Version:** 4.8.0  
**Date:** 2026-06-02  
**Repository:** [https://github.com/fakhruldeen/PMOSkills](https://github.com/fakhruldeen/PMOSkills)  
**Authority:** PMBOK 8 Primary · PMI Companion References Secondary  
**Status:** Active roadmap  
**Supersedes:** `NEXT-STEPS-PLAN.md` v3.0.0 · `MASTER-PLAN-V2.md` v2.12.0 · `MASTER-PLAN.md` v4.7.0 (2026-06-02)

> **v4.8.0 update note (2026-06-02):** Phase 8 Next Steps & Compliance Integration: created comprehensive `docs/user-friendly-guide.md` (practitioner and AI manual with Mermaid charts) and `tests/pmbok8-compliance-test-plan.md` (formal 3-tier L1/L2/L3 testing protocol). Formally mapped Phase 8 roadmap additions (AST automations, static sites, pilot scopes) and updated scorecards.

> **v4.7.0 update note (2026-06-02):** Phase 6 Test Suite and Phase 7 Quality Audit Complete: 48 skill test suites, 7 cross-skill integration flow tests, and catalogs fully implemented. Resolved all legacy mixed-case file non-conformances (NC-001 through NC-006) by renaming files to lowercase kebab-case and updating all links. All quality audit gates (Q-01 through Q-06) verified.

> **v4.6.0 update note (2026-06-01):** Phase 0 Structural Cleanup Complete: all legacy root directories and duplicate standards files removed. Staging files in repo/ and old artifacts monolith archived to docs/legacy/. Post-cleanup README alignment to show clean reference/ and artifacts/ structures. Session S-016 logged.

> **v4.4.1 update note (2026-06-01):** `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md` completed to v2.0.0 (§6–§10 written). Version reference in §2 updated accordingly. S-013 session log entry added.

> **v4.4.0 update note (2026-06-01):** Quality enforcement integrated. `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md` is now the single authoritative source for all quality standards, file structures, naming conventions, YAML schemas, and quality gate checklists. `§2` of this file updated to point to `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md` — the inline quality summary previously here is removed to eliminate dual-source confusion. Six new AI agent operating rules (13–19) added in `§9` to enforce `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md` at the file level.

> **v4.3.0 update note (2026-06-01):** Comprehensive gap audit completed. All Space files cross-referenced against current repo: PMBOK 8 Guide (8th Ed.), The Standard for Project Management, PMO Practice Guide, Project Manager's Book of Forms, and all 23 books in `pmi_reference_list.md`. Eight new task groups added: (1) PMO-specific skills missing entirely; (2) Portfolio and Program management skills missing; (3) No companion-references layer despite 23 uploaded books; (4) No tailoring guidance layer despite PMBOK 8 full Tailoring section; (5) Sustainability/ESG skills absent despite being a PMBOK 8 Standard principle; (6) Missing `docs/ai-agents/source-usage-guide.md`; (7) Skills × Reference Book mapping needs promotion from `repo/`; (8) PMO artifacts A34–A36 tracked in plan but missing from scorecard. Total target file count raised from ~350 to ~420 files.

> **v4.2.0 update note (2026-06-01):** Full repository directory audit completed. Every directory crawled and compared against the canonical intended structure. Critical new findings: (1) `artifacts/` has 17 subdirs vs 6 documented — 11 undocumented dirs need audit and README update; (2) `repo/` contains 7 identifiable legacy files that need audit and archival/deletion; (3) `C4-Process-Records/` root contains 30 old pre-migration PR files (PR11–PR40) confirmed as duplicates of `reference/processes/`; (4) C5/C6/C7 all contain live content that must be migrated before deletion; (5) `reference/` has 4 stale legacy subdirs still present; (6) `reference/` is missing `tools-techniques/`, `inputs-outputs/`, and `appendices/` subdirs. All findings added as critical Phase 0 tasks. Phase 0 now has 22 distinct operations.

## 0. Purpose

This is the active session tracking plan for the PMOSkills repository. For the full phase-by-phase completion plan, see [`COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md`](./COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md).

This document tracks:
- Current state of every layer (from live directory audit)
- Session-by-session progress log
- Scorecard against all known targets

## 2. Quality Standards

> **Single authority: [`QUALITY-STANDARDS.md`](./QUALITY-STANDARDS.md) (v2.0.0)**

All quality standards, file structure requirements, YAML front-matter schemas, naming conventions, directory rules, quality gate checklists, source traceability rules, enforcement protocols, and the AI agent pre-commit checklist are defined in **`QUALITY-STANDARDS.md`** (currently v2.0.0). That document supersedes any inline quality notes in this file or in `COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md §2`.

### 2.1 Document Roles

| Document | Role | When to Read |
|---|---|---|
| **`QUALITY-STANDARDS.md`** | **Single authority** — all schemas, naming rules, structure standards, source traceability, quality gates, enforcement protocol, pre-commit checklist | Before creating or reviewing ANY file in this repo |
| `MASTER-PLAN.md` (this file) | Active tracker — session log, scorecard, gap audit, task lists | Start of every session |
| `COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md` | Phase blueprint — entry conditions, deliverables, phase-level quality gates | When starting a new phase |

### 2.2 Quick Reference — File Type → Quality Standard

| File Type | Code | Quality Standard Section |
|---|---|---|
| Skill file | `SKL` | `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §2.1` (YAML) · `§3.1` (structure) · `§4.2` (naming) · `§7.2` (gate) |
| Artifact definition | `ART-DEF` | `§2.2` · `§3.2` · `§4.3` · `§7.3` |
| Artifact template | `ART-TPL` | `§2.3` · `§3.3` · `§4.3` · `§7.3` |
| Artifact example | `ART-EX` | `§2.4` · `§3.4` · `§4.3` · `§7.3` |
| Reference file | `REF` | `§2.5` · `§3.5` · `§4.4` · `§7.4` |
| Documentation file | `DOC` | `§2.6` · `§3.6` · `§4.7` |
| Shared component | `SHR` | `§2.7` · `§3.8` · `§4.6` |
| Test file | `TST` | `§2.8` · `§3.7` · `§4.5` |
| Root governance file | `GOV` | `§2.9` · `§3.9` · `§4.7` |

## 9. AI Agent Operating Rules

See [`COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md §8`](./COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md) for the foundational rules. The rules below extend and enforce quality standards at the file level.

### Foundational Rules (from COMPLETION-PLAN-V4.md §8)

1. Never modify an artifact definition without bumping version.
2. Never create a skill that references an artifact that does not exist.
3. Always check this file (`MASTER-PLAN.md`) before starting a session.
4. Always commit file-by-file with conformant messages.
5. Never cite PMBOK 8 without a section number.
6. Update this file and CHANGELOG.md at the end of every session.
7. When building `shared/` files, follow the exact structure in `shared/README.md`.
8. When building `tests/` files, follow the exact structure and 9-test-case schema in `tests/README.md`.
9. Never delete a directory with live content without first verifying migration is complete.
10. Never consolidate two `artifacts/` subdirs without first auditing both for content conflicts.
11. PMO skills (Pack 08) must cite PMO Practice Guide by chapter and service number.
12. Every companion reference file in `reference/companion-references/` must include the short-code from `pmi_reference_list.md`.

### Quality Enforcement Rules (from QUALITY-STANDARDS.md v2.0.0 — enforced v4.4.0)

13. **Before creating any file, look up its file type code in `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §1`.** Apply the correct YAML schema (§2), section structure (§3), and naming pattern (§4) for that type. Do not proceed without confirming all three.
14. **Every skill file (`SKL`) must pass the 12-point skill gate in `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §7.2` and the 15-point universal gate in `§7.1` before commit.** A file that fails any L1 check must not be committed.
15. **Every artifact definition (`ART-DEF`) must pass the artifact quality gate in `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §7.3` before commit.** The waste test (5 binary questions) must return all YES.
16. **Every artifact template (`ART-TPL`) must contain no pre-filled `[FIELD: ...]` placeholders.** Pre-filling a template placeholder is an L1 critical failure that blocks commit.
17. **Every artifact example (`ART-EX`) must use the Meridian CRM System Upgrade scenario exclusively.** Any other scenario name is an L2 non-conformance (NC entry required in CHANGELOG).
18. **Every reference file (`REF`) must include `pmbok8_source:` in YAML with a specific section number (e.g., `§2.3.4`), not just a chapter name.** Vague citations are an L2 non-conformance.
19. **Any file placed in a directory not listed in `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §5.1` is a structural violation (L1 or L2).** If a new directory is needed, follow the governance protocol in `QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §5.4` before creating it.
20. **Run the AI Agent Pre-Commit Checklist (`QUALITY-STANDARDS.md §9`) on every file before committing it.** Phase 7 is not a final step — it runs after every individual file.
