The Trilogy

Decisions, governance, and execution — enforced by tools.

Shipped

Three tools that turn agent improvisation into auditable, evidence-based execution — research earns decisions, Governor records contracts, and Docket executes within them.

The contract

Agents don't get to skip governance, guess at decisions, or lose track of execution. The trilogy enforces that contract with three tools, each handling one concern:

research.md earns decisions with evidence. Candidates are scored against locked criteria. The research is the receipt.
Governor records what the project has committed to — vision, goals, guardrails, ADRs. If a task would violate a guardrail, the answer is already no.
Docket executes tasks within those contracts. Every task links to the goal it serves. Definition of Done is explicit, not assumed.

The flow

The three tools aren't a pipeline — they're a dance. Research can trigger new guardrails. Execution can surface findings that reopen research. Governance evolves from what execution discovers. Each tool can be used alone, but new capabilities emerge when they work together.

A decision earned in research.md becomes a contract in Governor. A guardrail in Governor constrains what Docket can execute. A task completed in Docket can surface evidence that feeds back into research.md. The loop is continuous, not linear.

Install

pip install research-md governor-md docket-md

Three packages. One contract. Each is an MCP server — agents read and write governance through tool calls.
