Use this skill when a team must define what its management system covers before a certification project, or its current scope is one vague sentence, and asks "write our ISMS scope", "what should be in scope", "can we exclude the sales office", "scope for the certificate", "draw the boundary of our management system" or "the auditor says our scope is unclear". Drafts the scope statement with boundaries, interfaces, dependencies and justified exclusions, for a security, privacy or AI management…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Use this before risk work starts, because every later document (risk register, applicability statement, audit plan) inherits the scope. You get two documents in a new folder, `./scope-statement-drafting/`: the scope statement itself, a short document saying what the management system covers and why, ready for leadership to approve (`scope-statement.md`), and a table of every team, site, product and system marked in or out with the reason (`boundary-table.md`). This skill drafts for a human to review and sign; this skill never marks a control effective. Leadership decides the scope; the agent proposes it. End `scope-statement.md` with `## Not checked`: what this run did not read or could not open, what it assumed and what it did not verify, specific to this run. Then add a blank `## Review record` for the approver: reviewer role and competence basis, items sampled and the source each was traced to, what was changed or rejected, one item the draft did not flag and what checking it showed, decision, date and draft version reviewed. ## Inputs to gather …

How to install
mdr add better-isms/grcskills/scope-statement-drafting@sha256:cc1daf76bc9a4f82The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.94f7f3e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
