AI Playbook

Practical guidance for working with AI coding tools inside the STRATA governance framework — session boundaries, authority chain constraints, prompt patterns, and governed delivery workflows.

The AI Playbook guides practitioners through working effectively with AI coding assistants — GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, and similar tools — within the STRATA governance framework. It covers session setup, authority chain mandates, prompt structures, escalation handling, and governed delivery patterns that keep AI-assisted work traceable, recoverable, and defensible.

The foundational material for AI-assisted STRATA delivery is available now:

Introduction

What the AI Playbook covers and how AI coding tools operate within the STRATA authority chain and execution loop.

Concepts

The authority chain pattern, session mandates, and the session drift failure mode — the three concepts that underpin every governed AI session.

The Authority Chain

How to establish the constitutional framework — operative constitution and copilot mandate — that constrains your AI tool for the full project lifecycle.

The Execution Loop

How the governed delivery cycle works — from phase planning through AI-assisted implementation to human sign-off.

The Prompt Library

The member-only AI session guides provide per-stratum, ready-to-paste prompts for GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude. Each stratum has a dedicated prompt page covering the specific workflow moments where AI assistance is most valuable — from initial project classification through artifact trail maintenance. Prompts are structured with purpose, timing, and usage notes so practitioners know exactly when to invoke each prompt and what output to expect.

Structured prompt sets for each of the five strata — designed for GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude. Available with a Professional member account.
