PHI Readiness Stages

Assess the current PHI Readiness Stage (PRS) of a workload, repository, system, or environment; determine HIPAA applicability and role; identify evidence gaps; and recommend next actions using official HHS/OCR and NIST sources with conservative evidence caps.

This top-level SKILL.md is the canonical install and publish entrypoint for the repository root.

It is suitable for Codex, Claude Code, and OpenClaw-compatible registries that publish a root skill folder directly.

The detailed PRS assessment workflow lives in skills/phi-readiness-review/SKILL.md.

If you are using this as an installed or published skill, always load files in this order:

1. skills/phi-readiness-review/SKILL.md
2. framework/assessment-rules.md
3. framework/assessment-evidence-handling.md
4. framework/applicability-role-matrix.md
5. framework/stage-rubric.md
6. framework/evidence-levels.md
7. framework/evidence-freshness.md
8. framework/minimum-artifact-matrix.md
9. framework/regulatory-boundaries.md
10. framework/output-contract.md

Then load only the additional control, checklist, and reference files needed for the specific assessment.

When a review needs rule-level traceability or a baseline-versus-policy distinction, also load mappings/hipaa-security-rule-crosswalk.md.

If you are using the repository itself as context rather than as an installed skill, start from AGENTS.md.
