Standards Analysis Reporter Skill
Domain Knowledge
- Source Documents:
STANDARDS_AND_DOCS.MD(Primary index of standards)ROVER_SOFTWARE_PROPOSAL.MDROVER_COMMANDS.MDreports/ARCHITECTURE_ANALYSIS.MD(Technical architecture reference)
- Primary Data Sources:
landers/(Commercial provider integration specs)rovers/(Reference implementations)SPACE_ENTITIES.MD
- External Framework Reference:
- Institutional: NASA (Artemis, CLPS), ESA (Argonaut), ISO 10788, ISO 14624.
- Commercial: Astrobotic (Griffin/Peregrine PUG), Intuitive Machines (Nova-C/D PUG), ispace (HAKUTO-R/APEX PUG).
- Interoperability: LunaNet Interoperability Specification (LNIS), CCSDS (SOIS, XTCE).
Instructions
Institutional Standards Review:
- Synthesize requirements from NASA, ESA, and ISO standards as listed in
STANDARDS_AND_DOCS.MD. - Focus on environmental testing (ASTM E595, MIL-STD-810/461), lunar soil simulants (ISO 10788), and deep space interoperability.
- Synthesize requirements from NASA, ESA, and ISO standards as listed in
Commercial Framework Analysis:
- Decompose the integration requirements for Astrobotic, ispace, and Intuitive Machines.
- Compare power buses (28V vs 120V), data interfaces (RS-422, Ethernet, LTE), and wireless protocols (Wi-Fi, 4G).
- Reference specific lander profiles in
landers/for technical grounding.
Gap & Opportunity Analysis:
- Identify "Interface Frictions": Use findings from
reports/ARCHITECTURE_ANALYSIS.MDto pinpoint where commercial providers disagree or diverge from institutional guidelines. - Pinpoint "Standardization Deserts": Where are there no current standards (e.g., standard deployment mechanisms for micro-rovers)?
- Propose "LORS Bridging Solutions": How can LORS-compliant rovers bridge these gaps through abstraction or universal gateways?
- Identify "Interface Frictions": Use findings from
Adoption Status and Benchmarking:
- For each major standard, explicitly state its Adoption Status:
- Governmental: Primary owners (e.g., NASA, ESA, CNSA) and their enforcement level.
- Commercial: Level of adoption by private entities (e.g., SpaceX, Intuitive Machines). Note where commercial entities "tailor" or simplify institutional standards.
- Use a specific categorization: De Facto Standard, Institutional Requirement, or Emerging Commercial Practice.
- For each major standard, explicitly state its Adoption Status:
Missing Information & Research TBDs:
- Critically evaluate the current dataset.
- Identify specific technical areas where information is missing (e.g., restricted PUGs, lack of deployment standards).
- Label these clearly as [TBD] or [RESEARCH REQUIRED] within the report to guide future data collection.
Report Writing Standards:
- Academic/Scientific Rigor: Use formal technical terminology. Ensure evidence-based conclusions.
- Clarity & Conciseness: Avoid fluff. Use tables for comparative analysis.
- References: Cite specific sections of
STANDARDS_AND_DOCS.MDand internal lander/rover files.
