Risk Requirements Analysis

Overview

Use this skill to make requirement-level risk visible before release commitments are locked.

Scope Boundaries

• Use this skill when the task matches the trigger condition described in description.
• Do not use this skill when the primary task falls outside this skill's domain.

Shared References

• Requirement risk scoring rules:
  • references/requirement-risk-scoring-rules.md

Templates And Assets

• Requirement risk register template:
  • assets/requirement-risk-register-template.csv

Inputs To Gather

• Approved requirement baseline and dependencies.
• Incident history and known failure modes.
• Delivery timeline and operational constraints.
• Compliance/security criticality context.

Deliverables

• RSK-* register linked to REQ-*.
• Mitigation and contingency ownership map.
• Residual risk summary for decision makers.

Workflow

1. Identify failure modes per requirement.
2. Score risks using references/requirement-risk-scoring-rules.md.
3. Record risks in assets/requirement-risk-register-template.csv.
4. Assign mitigation and contingency owners with dates.
5. Publish residual-risk decision package.

Quality Standard

• High-risk requirements have explicit risk entries.
• High-severity risks have mitigation and contingency plans.
• Risk acceptance authority is explicit.

Failure Conditions

• Stop when critical risks have no owner or decision date.
• Stop when compliance risks are accepted without authority.
• Escalate when residual risk exceeds commitment policy.
