Analyze workspace copilot instructions to identify documentation gaps that impact agent automation.
Currently Missing (would block agent operations if required):
- GitHub Authentication — No workspace instructions on GitHub token management, PAT scope requirements, secret rotation
- Azure Authentication — No workspace-level guidance on Azure credential types (managed identity vs service principal), subscription scoping, token acquisition
- Infrastructure Provisioning — No standard patterns for infrastructure-as-code, bicep variables, resource naming conventions
- Environment Variables — No canonical .env handling, secret masking, development vs production separation
- Deployment Pipelines — No standard CI/CD patterns, approval gates, rollback procedures documented workspace-wide
- Database Migrations — No governance for breaking schema changes, rollback procedures, evidence tracking
- Secrets Management — No workspace pattern for secret storage, rotation, audit trails
- Cost Governance — No resource quota enforcement, budget alerts, cost optimization patterns
- Compliance Requirements — No HIPAA/SOC2/FedRAMP requirements per project documented
- Monitoring Standards — No canary deployment patterns, health check definitions, alert response procedures
- Rate Limiting — No API throttling governance, per-service quotas, backoff strategies
- Infrastructure Constraints — No documentation about regional deployments, latency requirements, SLA targets
Already Well-Documented: DPDCA process, Veritas MTI scoring, evidence layer queryability, agent governance patterns
- Blocking Status: Items #7 (Secrets), #2 (Azure Auth), #1 (GitHub Auth) would block agent automation if required today
- Non-Blocking: Items #4-6, #8-12 are project-specific or implementable without workspace-level standards
WORKSPACE INSTRUCTIONS FILES (version-controlled, human-readable):
- DPDCA process documentation
- Governance templates (PLAN, STATUS, ACCEPTANCE)
- Best practices and patterns
- Release notes and changelogs
- Purpose: Stable, human-facing guidance

- L33 (agent-policies): Per-agent constraints (can_deploy, can_modify_secrets, quota limits)
- L34 (quality-gates): Test coverage %, MTI thresholds, merge gates
- L35 (deployment-policies): Pre-flight checks, post-deployment validation, rollback triggers
- L36 (testing-policies): Framework requirements, coverage targets, CI gates
- L37 (github-rules): Branch protection rules, commit standards, PR review requirements
- L38 (validation-rules): Field constraints, pattern matching, enum enforcement
- L39 (azure-infrastructure): Desired infrastructure state (IaC source of truth)
- Purpose: Runtime enforcement, agent-queryable, audit-trailed
- ✅ Clear Files vs Data Model responsibilities established
- ✅ 12 missing topics catalogued for future workspace documentation
- ✅ Identified 7 new layers needed for agent automation governance

Three-Layer Model:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ DESIRED STATE (L39: azure-infrastructure) │
│ - ACA replicas, CosmosDB throughput, APIM quotas │
│ - Source of truth for agent deployments │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
↓
[Deploy Engine]
↓
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ACTUAL STATE (Azure Resources) │
│ - Live ACA, CosmosDB, APIM, App Insights │
│ - Continuously monitored for drift │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ L41 (DRIFT DETECTION) │

└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
| Phase | Step | Safety Gate | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. DISCOVER | Query L39 (desired state) | L34 (quality gates): MTI >= 70 required | Desired infrastructure loaded |
| 2. PLAN | Generate Bicep IaC + diff | L35 (deployment-policies): pre-flight checks (API health, secrets absent, quota ok) | Deployment plan created |
| 3. GENERATE | Create Bicep templates from L39 | L38 (validation-rules): field constraints enforced | Bicep IaC artifacts ready |
| 4. DEPLOY | Execute Bicep deployment | L33 (agent-policies): deployment authorization + rollback triggers | Resources deployed |
| 5. VALIDATE | Health checks + smoke tests | L36 (testing-policies): post-deployment test suite | Deployment confirmed |
Hard Stops (Automatic rollback):
- Policy violation (e.g., agent not authorized to deploy)
- Quota exceeded (e.g., ACA scale target above limit)
- Secret detected hardcoded in Bicep
- Health check fails (e.g., API endpoint 404)
- Error rate > 5% post-deployment
- Response time > 2000ms (SLA breach)
Soft Approvals (Configurable):
- Canary deployment (deploy to 10% first, measure metrics, gradually increase)
- Manual approval required (e.g., production deployments)
- Notification to admin (e.g., major infrastructure change)
| L# | Layer | Role in IaC Workflow |
|---|---|---|
| L33 | agent-policies | Authorization gating (who can deploy) |
| L34 | quality-gates | Merge gating (MTI >= 70 required before deploy) |
| L35 | deployment-policies | Pre/post-flight checks, rollback conditions |
| L36 | testing-policies | Post-deployment smoke test suite |
| L37 | github-rules | PR approval gates before Bicep merge |
| L38 | validation-rules | Field constraint enforcement on L39 |
| L39 | azure-infrastructure | Source of truth for deployment |
| Week | Tasks | Deliverables |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Create L39-L43 in data model; populate initial infrastructure state | L39-L43 schemas live, seed data deployed |
| 2 | Build Bicep generator (parses L39 → generates .bicep files); add diff preview | Generator script, diff preview output |
| 3 | Implement deploy engine (orchestration, pre-flight, post-flight); add health checks | Deploy orchestrator script, health monitoring |
| 4 | Records/drift/costs/compliance integration; full end-to-end testing | L40-L43 populated, audit trails complete |
