## Overview

Draft AI lifecycle management procedures for ISO/IEC 42001:2023 (concept to retirement).

## Getting Started

Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the *ISO 42001 AI Lifecycle Procedures* skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.

## Example conversation

**You:** We need documented procedures for the full AI lifecycle—from concept and data through development, deployment, monitoring, incidents, and retirement.

**Agent:** I’ll draft lifecycle procedures using the skill reference for each stage: concept & design; data acquisition and governance; model development; validation & testing; deployment; monitoring; incident response; retirement/decommissioning. For each I’ll define purpose, roles, inputs/outputs, and links to risk, data governance, and incident procedures. Then I’ll run **lifecycle_procedures_check** to confirm all stages are covered and fix any gaps.

## Output excerpt

### Lifecycle procedures excerpt

**Concept & design** — Purpose: define requirements and governance for new or changed AI systems. Activities: requirements doc; impact assessment; design decisions and approvals. Outputs: approved concept; link to risk register. Owner: Product/AIMS.

**Data acquisition and governance** — Purpose: ensure data used for AI meets quality, provenance, and lawful-use requirements. Activities: source assessment; quality checks; bias/gap assessment where relevant. Outputs: approved dataset; lineage. Owner: Data/Product. Ref: Data governance procedure.

**Deployment** — Purpose: release to production with controlled rollout and roll-back. Activities: readiness checklist; approval; release; post-deploy checks. Outputs: deployment record; go-live sign-off. Owner: Product/Engineering.

**Monitoring** — Purpose: ongoing performance, drift, and oversight. Activities: [e.g. weekly metrics, drift alerts, human oversight log]. Outputs: monitoring records; escalation to incident if needed. Ref: Monitoring procedure.

## Extension and validation

The skill includes **lifecycle_procedures_check**, which validates that the procedure set covers all required lifecycle stages: concept & design; data acquisition and governance; model development; validation & testing; deployment; monitoring; incident response; retirement/decommissioning. Run it after drafting and address any missing stages.
