Section goal

Cross-domain closure dashboards, signoff manifests, waiver governance, and tapeout readiness discipline.

How to study this section

1. Start with the topic hub to learn the integration contract.

2. Use mechanism and reports pages to connect contract to metrics.

3. Use debug and worked-example pages for war-room readiness.

4. Close with checklist and PPA impact before closure signoff.

Reports and artifacts

• closure dashboard

• signoff manifest

• waiver aging report

• TRR checklist

Mini case study

A near-tapeout risk was caught when manifest mismatch invalidated an apparently green closure report.

Debug branches

• Validate manifest integrity

• Bound waiver risk

• Audit cross-domain owner approvals

Senior review question

Ask: what baseline, owner, and artifact prove this topic is truly closed?
