Workflow handover checklist

A handover checklist for workflows that must run without their original builder.

The problem

A working implementation can still depend on its builder. This template makes the responsibilities and evidence for handover explicit.

Use the resource

  1. Download the Markdown file and copy it into your documentation tool.
  2. Replace the bracketed fields and remove checks that are genuinely outside scope.
  3. Rehearse a normal run, a failure, and a routine change with the receiving operator.
  4. Record acceptance, unresolved risks, and the ongoing support arrangement.

Included

  • Named owners and access requirements
  • Normal operation, exceptions, and recovery
  • AI-specific controls and evaluation cases
  • Completion, review-effort, and cost measures
  • An acceptance record and maintenance plan

Design decisions

Plain Markdown keeps the resource usable without an account or a new service.

Acceptance is based on an operator rehearsal rather than a documentation-completeness score.

Limitations

  • This is a reference template, not an application or an automated assessment.
  • Completion does not establish security, regulatory compliance, or production readiness.
  • Use approved sample data. Do not add credentials or confidential client information to a public copy.

Maintenance
