# Best Practices > Research and catalog industry standards and frameworks applied to the project with citations, application mapping, and maturity model. Use alongside domain research to ground the project in established practice. Use when this capability is needed. - Skill: `tomevault-io/best-practices-2` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 2 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add tomevault-io/best-practices-2` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/tomevault-io/best-practices-2/raw - Safety review: pending (external: skill-scanner PASS, skillspector PASS) - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: AI & ML - Author: tomevault-io (https://skillmd.com/u/tomevault-io) - Updated: 2026-09-17 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/tomevault-io/best-practices-2 --- Generate `BEST-PRACTICES.md` at the repository root. ## Process 1. Read `_research/DOMAIN-RESEARCH.md` for identified frameworks 2. Read `PROJECT-PLAN.md` for approach and methodology 3. Deep-research 8+ frameworks with full citations 4. Map each framework's principles to project epics 5. Build maturity model progression 6. Create practice application matrix ## Required Sections 1. **Framework Entries** (8+ frameworks, each containing): - Framework name, author/org, year - Source citation with URL - Key Principles (bullet list) - Application table (Principle | Applied In | Epic IDs) - Rationale for inclusion 2. **Process Flow**: Mermaid `flowchart TD` for a domain-specific process 3. **Maturity Model**: Table (Level | Name | Characteristics | Target Phase), 4-5 levels 4. **Practice Application Matrix**: Table (Practice | Phase 1 | Phase 2 | Phase 3 | Phase 4) 5. **Implementation Priority**: Table (Priority | Practice | Effort | Impact | Phase) ## Quality Criteria - [ ] 8+ frameworks with full citations and URLs - [ ] Mix of industry-agnostic and domain-specific frameworks - [ ] Each framework mapped to specific project activities - [ ] Maturity model progression defined - [ ] Practice application matrix complete - [ ] At least one Mermaid process flow diagram --- > Converted and distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io/claim/zircote) — claim your Tome and manage your conversions.
