Metadata Standard¶

Why This Exists¶

Metadata makes the Algosure Blueprint governable. It records ownership, status, version, review date, and business value for every document.

Owner¶

The owner is the Chief Product Officer and Enterprise Architect.

Business Value¶

Metadata improves auditability, reduces ownership gaps, and enables the repository to scale as Algosure grows into an AI-native Digital Enterprise.

Required YAML Front Matter¶

Every document under docs/ must include YAML front matter.
