Checks and review
Applying adopted requirements without making formal audit storage universal.
Points in this Area
4 PointsChecks govern writing, not authority
This separates local verification requirements from optional reporting machinery during ordinary Atlas edits.
Posture, lifecycle, review, and relations remain distinct
Recorded relation neighbors create a bounded review queue while code, documents, and external sources remain necessary for unrecorded impact.
The useful test controls semantic scope
Review should challenge unsupported authoring ceremony against explicit evidence and maintenance cost.
Validation and Checks close the write loop
Writers must distinguish actual verification from optional reporting and disclose incomplete checks.
