Can I use this for non-technical SOPs?

Yes, while optimized for developer workflows using Git, the principles of versioning and lifecycle management apply to any procedural documentation.

How should I handle SOPs that are no longer in use?

This skill provides a deprecation template that preserves historical context while clearly directing users to the modern replacement.

What is the best way to organize a large collection of SOPs?

Use the directory structure pattern provided by this skill, which separates active, deprecated, and template SOPs with a central index.

How does this skill help with documentation rot?

It provides systematic review schedules and checklists to ensure SOPs are regularly updated to reflect current technical environments and processes.

Does this integrate with Git?

Yes, it emphasizes treating SOPs as code, utilizing Git for commit messages, version tracking, and repository organization.

Manages the evolution of Standard Operating Procedures by providing frameworks for versioning, updates, and deprecation.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for maintaining the accuracy and relevance of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) within software development environments. It equips teams with standardized practices for version control, lifecycle management—from creation to archiving—and systematic review processes. By integrating SOPs directly into the development workflow using tools like Git, this skill ensures that documentation evolves alongside infrastructure and codebases, preventing documentation rot and ensuring that team processes remain reliable after system changes or production incidents.
