📊 Decision Matrix Quick Reference

GO Criteria (ALL must be TRUE)

  • ✅ Quality score ≥78/100
  • ✅ Security tests: 26/26 passing
  • ✅ Build errors: ≤11 (baseline)
  • ✅ Skills count: 59
  • ✅ Files staged: package.json + README.md only
  • ✅ Network connectivity: OK
  • ✅ Git permissions: OK

STOP Criteria (ANY is TRUE)

  • ❌ Security tests failing
  • ❌ Build errors increased
  • ❌ Network unavailable
  • ❌ Git errors cannot be resolved
  • ❌ Unexpected file changes
  • ❌ Critical bugs discovered

ROLLBACK Triggers (ANY is TRUE)

  • 🚨 Security vulnerability introduced
  • 🚨 Production system breaking
  • 🚨 Data corruption detected
  • 🚨 Critical user impact
  • 🚨 Cannot fix quickly (<1 hour)

🎯 Quick Decision Points

At Each Phase:

  1. Run the checks for that phase
  2. Follow the decision tree
  3. GO → Proceed to next phase
  4. STOP → Fix issues, retry, or abort
  5. ROLLBACK → Execute emergency procedure

Time Estimates by Phase:

  • Phase 1 (Pre-flight): 5 min
  • Phase 2 (Edits): 10 min
  • Phase 3 (Validation): 15 min
  • Phase 4 (Git ops): 10 min
  • Phase 5 (Push): 5 min
  • Total: ~45 min (with buffer: 60 min)

Risk Levels:

  • 🟢 LOW: Proceed confidently
  • 🟡 MEDIUM: Proceed with caution
  • 🔴 HIGH: Stop and investigate
  • 🚨 CRITICAL: Rollback immediately
