Required checks match workflow names

Covers 4 controls

Required checks match workflow names
Required status checks strict
Required check includes tests
Required lint check

What Verify read

Align required checks with jobs.

Covers 4 controls

CODEOWNERS or review assignment
CODEOWNERS or OWNERS file
Maintainer roster
Review of high-risk dependency changes

What Verify read

How Verify works

Read

Verify reads the repository at a pinned commit: settings, rulesets, workflows, and files.

Judge

Each control is checked against a written expectation. Same inspector, same criteria, every repository.

Prove

Every result shows the evidence Verify read. Assessments re-run daily, and changes are logged.
