Command Dependency Matrix

Complete dependency map for all 24 G-Cloud Kit workflow commands (26 total including init and pages), showing what each command reads, writes, and requires.

tender-intel = services/{NNN}-{name}/tender-intel.md, produced by /gcloud-kit:tenders. Every consumer reads it as a soft dependency — it enriches the output when present and is silently skipped when absent.

                        (scans all)          (reads all)   (requires all)

Scans existing (no hard requirements):
  plan ──────────── scans all artifacts, generates timeline
  health ────────── scans all artifacts, checks completeness

Independent (no project file dependencies):
  customize ─────── copies plugin templates to .gcloud/templates/
  sales ─────────── uses spend-data CSV only
  marketplace-data ─ uses external marketplace dataset
  customer ───────── uses URN + merge CSVs only
  targets ────────── uses URN + spend-data CSVs (optionally enriched by tender-intel)

Key Observations

supplier-profile is the root dependency — 13 of 24 workflow commands read it.
service-design is the second gate — all per-service commands require it.
submission-pack is the strictest — it requires all 6 documents (profile, declaration, design, SDD, pricing, security).
Six commands are fully independent (customize, sales, marketplace-data, customer, targets) or scan-only (plan, health) — they can run at any time.
security reads the SDD but doesn't hard-fail without it (uses 2>/dev/null), making it optional.
sdd-lot3 is the only SDD command that also reads reference data (sfia-skills.md).
dpia is the most context-rich per-service command — reads 4 artifacts plus compliance-frameworks.md reference.
presentation works at both portfolio and per-service level.
All commands now consistently use services/supplier/supplier-profile.md for the supplier profile path.
tenders is a producer whose tender-intel.md artefact is a soft input to pricing (awarded-value price anchor), compare (real competitor award evidence), and targets (live award-active buyers) — each degrades gracefully when it is absent.
