Resolves #11351

Implements #11328 audit Part 3 of the Discussion-graduation enforcement gap audit (Optional Upfront Ergonomics).

What ships

+7 insertions / -2 deletions in 2 files:

  • .agents/skills/ideation-sandbox/references/ideation-sandbox-workflow.md
  • .agents/skills/ticket-create/references/ticket-create-workflow.md
  1. ideation-sandbox: Added ## Discussion Criteria Mapping to the Graduated-Artifact Required Sections list (§6.6 and §6.7).
  2. ticket-create: Added Discussion Criteria Mapping as a required bullet point in the Fat Ticket Body Structure (§5) when graduating from a Discussion.

Substrate Budget Impact

Surface Delta Type
ideation-sandbox-workflow.md +6 lines Conditionally-loaded skill payload
ticket-create-workflow.md +1 lines Conditionally-loaded skill payload
Always-loaded substrate 0 bytes (AGENTS.md / AGENTS_STARTUP.md / AGENTS_ATLAS.md unchanged)

skill-manifest-lint passes: [lint-skill-manifest] OK.

How this works

These additions complement the backend check implemented in #11354 by prompting agents upfront during issue creation or ideation graduation to establish the mapping. This satisfies the epic-resolution Closeout Gates inherently by construction, rather than trying to satisfy them post-hoc.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Update ideation-sandbox §6.6 and §6.7 to require ## Discussion Criteria Mapping.
  • Update ticket-create to include a pointer to the mapping section for Discussion-origin flows.
  • npm run ai:lint-skill-manifest passes.
  • Base branch is dev.

PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Request Changes
  • Rationale: The shipped two-file skill delta is narrow, locally validated, and CI is green. Approval is held on one PR-body close-target wording issue: #11328 is the audit origin, not the issue this PR should close.

Peer-Review Opening: This is the right lightweight upstream ergonomics lane for #11351. The two-file diff matches the ticket scope and avoids the branch-pollution problem from #11352.


Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Issue ID: Resolves #11351
  • Related Graph Nodes: #11328, #11349, #11350, PR #11354

Depth Floor

Challenge: The PR body says Closes **#11328 Part 3**.... GitHub currently reports only #11351 in closingIssuesReferences, and the branch commit message is clean, but the prose still teaches the wrong close-target habit. This PR should close #11351 only; #11328 remains the umbrella audit origin.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit: Pass for the shipped files. The implementation is a small routing-contract addition in ideation-sandbox and ticket-create. The only drift is PR-body close wording around #11328.


Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: None.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: None.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: The #11351 upstream mapping pointer is the cheap side of the #11349/#11350 gates: make the mapping section exist at creation/graduation time so closeout does not have to reconstruct intent later.

Provenance Audit

  • Internal Origin: Pass. The PR traces to #11351 from the #11328 audit split.

Close-Target Audit

  • PR body close target identified: standalone Resolves #11351.
  • #11351 is not epic-labeled.
  • closingIssuesReferences reports only #11351.
  • Commit-message audit via gh api repos/neomjs/neo/pulls/11355/commits shows only feat(skills): add Discussion Criteria Mapping section to ideation workflows (#11351); no magic close for #11328.

Findings: Close-target mechanics pass, but PR-body prose should stop saying Closes #11328 Part 3 because #11328 is not closed by this PR.


Contract Completeness Audit

  • Findings: Pass. #11351 asks for lightweight mapping requirements in ideation-sandbox and ticket-create; the PR touches exactly those two workflow payloads.

Evidence Audit

  • Findings: N/A - docs/skill workflow change covered by static validation and CI.

Source-of-Authority Audit

  • Findings: Pass. No unsourced authority citation needed; review is based on PR body, ticket, diff, commit messages, and CI.

MCP-Tool-Description Budget Audit

  • Findings: N/A - no OpenAPI tool descriptions touched.

Wire-Format Compatibility Audit

  • Findings: N/A - no runtime wire format touched.

Cross-Skill Integration Audit

  • Findings: Pass. This PR intentionally touches the two upstream creation/graduation skills named by #11351. Non-blocking watch item: if the added Discussion Criteria Mapping section proves noisy for non-Epic or no-criteria graduations, route that as a follow-up clarification rather than expanding this PR.

Test-Execution & Location Audit

  • Branch checked out locally via gh pr checkout 11355.
  • Location check: changes are limited to .agents/skills/ideation-sandbox/references/ideation-sandbox-workflow.md and .agents/skills/ticket-create/references/ticket-create-workflow.md.
  • Related validation: git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD passed.
  • Related validation: node ai/scripts/lint-skill-manifest.mjs --base origin/dev returned [lint-skill-manifest] OK.

Findings: Pass.


CI / Security Checks Audit

  • Ran gh pr checks 11355 to empirically verify CI status.
  • Confirmed no checks are pending/in-progress.
  • Confirmed no deep red critical failures.

Findings: Pass - Analyze, CodeQL, integration-unified, lint, and unit are green.


Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • Update the PR body wording Closes **#11328 Part 3**... to non-closing wording such as Implements **#11328 audit Part 3**... or Part of #11328 audit.... This should be PR-body-only; the branch commit message is already clean.

Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 95 - 5 points deducted for close-target wording drift in the PR body; the file placement and Map-vs-Atlas split are otherwise aligned.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 95 - 5 points deducted because the PR body misstates the #11328 relationship as a close action.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 95 - static validation and CI are green; the only remaining issue is PR metadata/prose.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 95 - delivers the #11351 lightweight upstream pointers with one body correction needed.
  • [IMPACT]: 60 - useful ergonomics for Discussion-origin mapping, but intentionally optional and small.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 20 - two markdown workflow files, 8 insertions, no runtime code.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Quick Win - low-complexity substrate refinement that reduces future closeout friction.

No code changes requested.

Delta Depth Floor

I actively checked the live PR body, closingIssuesReferences, commit messages, and CI status; #11328 no longer appears as a close target and no new drift was introduced.

  • Location check: pass from Cycle 1; changes remain limited to ideation-sandbox and ticket-create workflow payloads.
  • Related verification run: no tests required for body-only delta; live statusCheckRollup remains green.
  • Findings: pass.

  • Findings: Pass. #11351 remains the only close target and is not epic-labeled.

CI / Security Checks Audit

  • Checked live PR #11355 statusCheckRollup after the body update.
  • Confirmed no checks are pending/in-progress.
  • Confirmed no deep red critical failures.

Findings: Pass - Analyze, CodeQL, integration-unified, lint, and unit are green.


Metrics Delta

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 95 -> 100 - prior deduction was close-target wording drift; it is now fixed.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 95 -> 100 - PR body now accurately describes #11328 as the audit origin.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 95 -> 100 - metadata/prose issue is fixed and CI remains green.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: unchanged from prior review - delivers #11351 lightweight upstream pointers.
