WORKFLOW / PROGRESS / CHECK BEFORE ISSUE
Progress with a visible shop review boundary
A PipeShop AI guide to progress, source context, review ownership, exception handling, and clean shop handoff.
THE SHOP REVIEW BOUNDARY
Use progress to connect source, owner, review state, and handoff evidence; it does not replace the person responsible for release.
Progress should leave the shop with a clearer record, not another isolated status view.
Inspect the state change
Show what becomes easier to find, compare, or verify after progress enters the workflow.
Carry it to handoff
Define the evidence, open issue, and next owner that travel with progress when the work changes hands.
