## Overview

Guided elaboration of CIS Controls v8 implementation plan — safeguard selection, IG1/IG2/IG3 alignment, and mapping to existing policies or controls.

## Getting Started

Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the *CIS Controls Implementation Author* skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.

## Example Conversation

> **You:** We need a CIS Controls v8 implementation roadmap for IG1. Map safeguards to owners and status.
>
> **Agent:** I'll draft the implementation roadmap with selected IG1 safeguards, implementation status, owner per safeguard, and mapping to our existing policies (e.g. access control, patch management).
>
> **You:** Run the validator. **Agent:** I ran `check_cis_safeguard_coverage`. CIS safeguards and status/owner content present. No warnings.

## Sample Output Excerpt

**Safeguard 1.1** — Inventory: Implemented. Owner: IT Ops. **Safeguard 2.1** — Secure configs: Planned Q2. Owner: Security. Mapping: Policy ACC-01.

## Built-in Validation Tools

**check_cis_safeguard_coverage** checks for CIS/safeguard content and implementation status/owner. Run on implementation document after drafting.
