Compliance Readiness Check

Pressure-testing any compliance program before starting a new framework, planning an audit calendar, or preparing for certification stage 1.

What it does

Pressure-testing any compliance program before starting a new framework, planning an audit calendar, or preparing for certification stage 1.

Procedure

When this skill is activated, Chalie follows these steps:

  1. Use memory to recall any prior compliance assessments, known gaps, or active certifications already documented.
  2. Use memory to surface any stored framework selections, then identify all applicable compliance frameworks by asking about industry, customer requirements, and geography — flag any commonly missed overlays (NYDFS for financial services, HIPAA for healthcare, ISO 42001 for AI systems).
  3. Use document to map overlaps between the identified frameworks — record where a single evidence artifact satisfies controls in multiple frameworks to reduce audit effort.
  4. Use document to verify and record that every evidence artifact has a single accountable owner with a documented refresh cadence — shared ownership without accountability is the most common cause of stale evidence.
  5. Use calendar to check the audit calendar: confirm surveillance audits are not stacking in the same window, auditor independence is maintained, and small teams have a rotation plan.
  6. Use search to verify the current status of any relevant harmonized standards, regulatory deadlines, or framework updates that could affect scope.
  7. Use schedule to note the management review cadence: recommend one quarterly cross-framework review covering all applicable frameworks rather than separate reviews per framework.
  8. Use document to save a compliance readiness report with: frameworks in scope, evidence inventory gaps, ownership assignments, audit calendar, and prioritized remediation actions.
