Automated Review Cadence · Source: Jira Story GOV-201 (5 pts) · Authority: Informational (the Jira story is authoritative).

Purpose

Open review cycles automatically when due.

Why it matters

Manual scheduling drifts; automation keeps governance current.

Where this lives

Runs in the Customer AI Governance platform (components: workspace). A scheduler watches due-dates and opens a cycle plus notifies the Lead. Learn teaches this read-only.

Workflow

1. Given a review due-date is reached
2. When the scheduler runs
3. Then a cycle opens and the Lead is notified

Worked example

A review's due-date passes. What should happen without anyone clicking anything?
