Requirements Triage Extension

Provides decision-making knowledge for triaging requirements-related findings during the finalize phase.

Purpose

This skill is a triage extension loaded by the plan-finalize workflow skill when processing requirements documentation findings. It provides domain-specific knowledge for deciding whether to fix, suppress, or accept findings.

Key Principle: This skill provides knowledge, not workflow control. The finalize skill owns the process.
