AI Readiness Check
Production-ready AI requires more than prompting. Check off the capabilities your team has solved. Your result tells you which protocol fits.
Based on the Production-Ready AI Patterns framework. 12 capabilities across 4 categories.

How This Works
This checklist is based on Production-Ready AI Patterns, the capabilities an organisation needs for production-grade AI work. It's upstream of the protocol family.
The gap between where you are and where the checklist says you should be is the engagement scope. Most organisations have mostly white checklists. That's not a problem, that's a starting point.
The protocol fills the gap. uno teaches persistent memory. duo teaches structured collaboration. tre teaches autonomous quality gates. Each one builds capabilities that move items from white to black.
