# guide-board

`guide-board` is a certification and compliance preparation framework. It turns
standards, conformance, regulatory, and repository-quality claims into structured
evidence that can be reviewed, repeated, compared, and used during assessments.

The root project owns the framework contracts. Domain-specific work lives in
extensions.

## Local Baseline

The first core is intentionally dependency-light. From a clean checkout:

```sh
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board extensions list
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board extensions validate
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board profile validate-target profiles/targets/sample-repository.json
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board profile validate-assessment profiles/assessments/sample-noop.json
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board plan \
  --target profiles/targets/sample-repository.json \
  --assessment profiles/assessments/sample-noop.json
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board run \
  --target profiles/targets/sample-repository.json \
  --assessment profiles/assessments/sample-noop.json
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board runs list
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board runs trend
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board runs gate
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board serve --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8080
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest discover -s tests
```

External extension repos plug in with `--extension-dir`:

```sh
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board --extension-dir ../open-cmis-tck extensions list
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m guide_board --extension-dir ../open-cmis-tck plan \
  --target ../open-cmis-tck/profiles/targets/kontextual-cmis-compat.json \
  --assessment ../open-cmis-tck/profiles/assessments/cmis-browser-baseline.json
```

The same CLI contracts are packaged by the container baseline. See
[docs/CONTAINER.md](docs/CONTAINER.md). The dependency-light local API wraps
those contracts for service and container operation; see
[docs/LOCAL-SERVICE-API.md](docs/LOCAL-SERVICE-API.md).

The `sample-noop` extension exercises the guide-board contracts without invoking
an external harness. `open-cmis-tck` is the first real seed extension.
