Summary

Adds a complete Claude skill for ISO 22301:2019 (Security and resilience - Business continuity management systems - Requirements). This is the second edition of the standard, superseding ISO 22301:2012, and is the globally recognised framework for Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS).

The implementation follows the same plugin architecture used by all existing skills in this repository. All 187 automated tests pass.


What This Skill Does

When installed, the skill activates on ISO 22301 and BCMS-related queries and enables Claude to:

  • Conduct structured gap analyses against all ISO 22301:2019 requirements (clauses 4-10)
  • Guide users through a five-phase Business Impact Analysis (BIA) methodology
  • Build risk assessments for disruption scenarios using likelihood-impact matrices
  • Design BC strategies and select appropriate recovery solutions (clause 8.3)
  • Author Incident Response Procedures (IRP), Business Continuity Plans (BCP), and IT Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP)
  • Plan and evaluate exercise programmes (tabletop, simulation, live/full)
  • Prepare organisations for Stage 1 and Stage 2 certification audits
  • Manage nonconformities, corrective actions, and the continual improvement cycle

OVERVIEW
--------
This commit delivers a complete, end-to-end Claude skill for ISO 31000:2018 Risk
Management. The skill covers the full standard -- Principles (Clause 4), Framework
(Clauses 5.1-5.6), and the Risk Management Process (Clauses 6.2-6.7) -- along with
five structured workflows, three on-demand reference files, a distributable .skill
archive, and full integration into the repository test suite and marketplace registry.

The skill is authored to the same standard as all other GRC skills in this repository:
trigger phrases in the SKILL.md frontmatter, output-format matrices, clause-cited
guidance, workflow templates, and on-demand reference file loading to preserve context
window efficiency.

tests/test_plugin_structure.py
  Added "iso31000" to the EXPECTED_PLUGINS set (line 35). This set is used by two
  inventory sanity tests:
    test_all_expected_plugins_present -- asserts all expected dirs exist
    test_no_unexpected_plugins -- asserts no unlisted dirs are present
  Without this addition, test_no_unexpected_plugins would fail when it discovers
  plugins/iso31000/ is not in the expected set.

tests/test_skill_installability.py
  Added "iso31000.skill" to the EXPECTED_SKILLS set (line 181). This set is used
  by two inventory sanity tests:
    test_all_expected_skills_present -- asserts all expected .skill files exist
    test_no_unexpected_skills -- asserts no unlisted .skill files are present
  Updated the docstring on test_all_expected_skills_present from "All 9 expected"
  to "All 10 expected" to reflect the updated total count.

INTEGRATION COVERAGE
--------------------
ISO 31000:2018 is the foundational risk management standard that underpins the risk
provisions within all ISO Annex SL (High Level Structure) management system standards.
The skill explicitly documents integration points for:

  ISO 27001:2022
    Clause 6.1 -- Information security risk assessment and treatment process; Annex A
    controls are selected and justified through the risk treatment process. A single
    integrated risk register can serve both ISO 31000 and ISO 27001 by adding an
    Annex A control reference column.

  ISO 9001:2015
    Clause 6.1 -- Risks and opportunities for the Quality Management System; Clause 8
    operational risk controls. The ISO 31000 risk process provides the methodology

CONTENT ACCURACY NOTES
-----------------------
All content is derived from the following authoritative sources and is presented
as documented fact, not inference or estimation:

  ISO 31000:2018 -- Risk management -- Guidelines
    Publisher: International Organization for Standardization
    The 8 principles (Clause 4), 6 framework components (Clause 5.1-5.6), and
    8 process activities (Clause 6.2-6.7) are documented as specified in the
    standard. Process activity names, descriptions, and relationships (including
    the continuous nature of communication/consultation and monitoring/review) are
    per the standard text.

  ISO 31010:2019 -- Risk management -- Risk assessment techniques
    Informs the risk identification technique section. All 7 techniques included
    (brainstorming, SWOT, PESTLE, SIPOC/process mapping, bowtie, FMEA, checklists/
    taxonomies) are listed in ISO 31010:2019 as suitable risk assessment techniques.
    FMEA column structure (Severity, Occurrence, Detection, RPN) follows ISO 31010
    guidance.

  ISO Guide 73:2009 -- Risk management -- Vocabulary
    Source for all risk management definitions used in the skill: risk, risk
    management, risk appetite, risk tolerance, risk criteria, inherent risk,
    residual risk, risk owner, risk treatment, risk source, event, consequence,
    likelihood, control.

  ISO Annex SL / ISO Directives Part 1 (Consolidated ISO Supplement)
    Basis for the integration mapping table. All Annex SL standards share the same
    mandatory clause structure with Clauses 4 (Context), 6 (Planning including risk
    assessment), 9 (Performance evaluation), and 10 (Improvement).

    Referenced for integration notes only. Compatibility statements are based on
    the documented relationship between ISO 31000 and COSO ERM frameworks.

Where implementation guidance represents established professional practice rather
than a direct normative requirement of the standard (for example, specific consequence
scale calibration percentages, tolerance threshold scores, or report formats), this
is presented as a template or example to be adapted by the organisation, not as
a requirement of the standard. This distinction is maintained throughout the skill
and reference files.

Branch  : feature/iso3001-skill
Base    : main (tag 0.3.0, commit 55346eb)
Standard: ISO 22301:2019 - Security and resilience - Business continuity
management systems - Requirements (second edition, supersedes ISO 22301:2012)

OVERVIEW
--------
This commit introduces a complete Claude skill for ISO 22301:2019, covering
the full lifecycle of a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). The
implementation follows the same plugin architecture used by all existing GRC
skills in this repository and passes all 187 automated tests (up from 186).

The skill enables practitioners to: conduct gap analyses against ISO 22301,
perform Business Impact Analyses (BIA), build risk assessments for disruption
scenarios, design BC strategies and select recovery solutions, author BC plans
and Incident Response Procedures (IRP), plan and evaluate exercises and tests,
prepare for Stage 1 and Stage 2 certification audits, and manage nonconformities
and corrective actions through the PDCA improvement cycle.

Standard: ISO/IEC 27017:2015 - Information technology - Security techniques -
Code of practice for information security controls based on ISO/IEC 27002 for
cloud services.

Published by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27, first edition December 2015.

OVERVIEW
--------
ISO 27017 is an extension of ISO/IEC 27002:2013 that provides cloud-specific
implementation guidance for information security controls. It addresses both
Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and Cloud Service Customers (CSCs), and
introduces 7 additional controls prefixed with 'CLD' that have no equivalent
in the base ISO 27002 standard.

The standard is a code of practice, not a certifiable standard in its own
right. Organisations certify against ISO 27001; ISO 27017 supplements that
with cloud-specific control implementation guidance.

BASE STANDARD RELATIONSHIP
---------------------------
ISO 27017 is explicitly based on ISO/IEC 27002:2013 (114 controls, 14 domains).
It provides cloud-specific guidance for 37 of those controls, covering domains:
5 (policies), 6 (organisation), 7 (HR security), 8 (asset management),
9 (access control), 10 (cryptography), 11 (physical security), 12 (operations),
13 (communications), 14 (acquisition/development), 15 (supplier relationships),
16 (incident management), 17 (business continuity), and 18 (compliance).

THE 7 CLOUD-SPECIFIC CLD CONTROLS
-----------------------------------
CLD.6.3.1  - Shared roles and responsibilities within a cloud computing
             environment. Requires both CSP and CSC to formally document and
             agree the allocation of security responsibilities, including in
             the cloud service agreement.

CLD.8.1.5  - Removal or return of cloud service customer assets. Requires
             CSPs to provide data return in usable formats and certified
             deletion of all CSC data after service termination.

CLD.9.5.1  - Segregation in virtual computing environments. Requires CSPs to
             implement logical isolation between tenants at compute, storage,
             and network layers including hypervisor-level isolation.

CLD.9.5.2  - Virtual machine hardening. Requires CSPs and CSCs to apply
             hardening standards to VMs including patch management, unnecessary
             service removal, encrypted storage, and host-based controls.

CLD.12.1.5 - Administrator operational security. Requires CSPs to apply MFA,
             least privilege, role separation, and comprehensive logging to all
             cloud service administrator accounts and activities.

CLD.12.4.5 - Monitoring of cloud services. Requires CSPs to make monitoring
             data available to CSCs and requires CSCs to actively monitor their
             own cloud usage and integrate CSP logs into their SIEM.

CLD.13.1.4 - Alignment of security management for virtual and physical
             networks. Requires CSPs to ensure virtual network security
             controls are equivalent to and consistent with physical network
             controls.

SHARED RESPONSIBILITY MODEL
----------------------------
A core concept of ISO 27017 is the explicit shared responsibility model.
Control allocation varies by service model:
- IaaS: CSP manages physical, network, and hypervisor; CSC manages OS and above
- PaaS: CSP extends to OS and runtime; CSC manages applications and data
- SaaS: CSP manages almost all technical controls; CSC manages IAM and data

MARKETPLACE
-----------
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json updated to include the iso27017 plugin entry
with description, version, author, homepage, category, and keywords.

DESIGN DECISIONS
----------------
- Reference numbering uses ISO 27002:2013 control IDs throughout because
  ISO 27017:2015 is explicitly based on the 2013 edition; the 2022 renumbering
  of ISO 27002 does not apply to ISO 27017 as no updated edition has been issued
- CLD controls are documented with CSP-specific and CSC-specific guidance
  separated, matching the structure of the standard itself
- The shared responsibility matrix covers all major control areas across all
  three service models (IaaS/PaaS/SaaS) to support practical use
- Templates are production-ready starting points, not illustrative examples;
  all placeholders are clearly marked with [BRACKETS] for user substitution
- The SKILL.md description field includes specific CLD control numbers and
  synonyms to maximise skill trigger accuracy in Claude Code

QUALITY ASSURANCE
-----------------
- No guessed or inferred control mappings; all guidance is derived from the
  published ISO/IEC 27017:2015 standard structure
- Shared responsibility allocations reflect the authoritative split described
  in the standard for each service model
- All 7 CLD controls documented with: purpose, CSP requirements, CSC
  requirements, cloud service agreement provisions, required audit evidence,
  and common implementation pitfalls
- All 37 ISO 27002 controls with cloud guidance documented with both CSP-side
  and CSC-side implementation notes
