Authoring processes
A process definition is plain EDN describing stages and the evidence each one requires. Tickets pin it by content hash, so a definition is a document with an identity rather than a mutable setting.
- Writing a definition — the shape, the guard vocabulary, and the design law that separates a process from a task list.
- Lint, simulate, test — proving the definition does what you meant.
- Roles and authority — who may sign what, and keeping membership current.
Start from an interview rather than a blank file:
tik author # answer questions; tik writes the definition
tik author --template bug # start from a finished interview
tik author prompt # an LLM recipe that yields the answers file
