Engineering Project Contract

Project scope

GitHub Project amandykovxd/projects/1 tracks work required to move Anticheat Telemetry from a development sensor to a qualified Windows Ring 0/3 integration.

The board covers:

• kernel driver build and reliability;
• user-mode collector behavior;
• shared protocol and event contracts;
• signing, packaging, and lifecycle;
• launcher and application identity integration;
• event delivery and server correlation;
• security, compatibility, and performance qualification.

Field model

Field	Type	Values
Status	Single select	Backlog, Ready, In progress, In review, Done
Priority	Single select	Critical, High, Normal
Area	Single select	Kernel, Collector, Protocol, Delivery, Integration, Backend, Validation
Milestone	Single select	Foundation, M1 Kernel CI, M2 Reliability, M3 Package, M4 Session, M5 Manifest, M6 PE Integrity, M7 Transport, M8 Correlation, M9 Qualification

Status contract

• Backlog: scope is recorded but prerequisites or design decisions remain.
• Ready: acceptance criteria are complete and implementation can start.
• In progress: an assignee or linked branch is actively implementing the item.
• In review: an open pull request contains the implementation.
• Done: the pull request is merged, required checks pass, and documentation is updated.

Only the repository owner moves an item to Done.

Priority contract

• Critical: blocks safe repository operation or an active release.
• High: blocks production qualification or a dependent roadmap milestone.
• Normal: scheduled capability or maintenance work without an immediate production blocker.

Automation contract

Configure project workflows to:

1. add new repository issues labeled roadmap, good first issue, or help wanted;
2. set new items to Backlog;
3. move an item to In progress when an assignee or linked implementation branch is added;
4. move an item to In review when a linked pull request is opened;
5. move an item to Done only after merge to main;
6. retain closed, unmerged items for audit instead of deleting them.

Project automation does not replace branch protection, required status checks, CODEOWNERS approval, or the owner-only update ruleset.
