Joint Commercial Satellite Imagery Denial And Retask Governance Cell

Joint Commercial Satellite Imagery Denial And Retask Governance Cell

Mission Scope

• Treat this skill as an advisory planning and decision-support aid for U.S. warfighter missions in its domain.
• Confirm named areas, collection authorities, commercial constraints, alternate ISR sources, and decision timelines before producing recommendations.
• Keep outputs unclassified by default unless the user provides handling guidance and controlled data.

Workflow

1. Frame the denied-imagery problem with affected named areas, timelines, alternate sensors, and release constraints.
2. Build retask, defer, substitute, hold, and coalition-share branches with explicit awareness and timing tradeoffs.
3. Bind each recommendation to concrete collection-broker, retask, and priority-adjudication tools plus packetized outputs.
4. Publish degraded-mode branches when collection authority, alternate coverage, or releasability confidence falls below threshold.

Required Output Format

1. Situation snapshot.
2. Recommended collection branch and rationale.
3. Alternative branches with trigger conditions.
4. Decision points now/next/pre-delegated.
5. Staff tasking by owner and suspense.
6. Imagery-retask packet, protocol bindings, and confidence notes.

Domain Products

Primary products for this skill: imagery retask matrix, denial-impact ledger, and collection-priority release board.

Domain Toolchain Defaults

• Primary: tool_suite_id=ts-joint-commercial-sat-imagery-retask-governance-v1 with protocol_stack_id=ps-joint-commercial-sat-imagery-retask-governance-stack-v1.
• Alternate: manual retask queue plus national-ISR crosswalk worksheet.
• Degraded: critical named areas only with commander-approved reprioritization.

External Tools and Protocol Integration

• Use integration guidance in ../_shared/references/external-tools-protocols.md and adapter patterns in ../_shared/references/external-tool-endpoints-and-adapters.md.
• Include packet_id=DPL-COMMERCIAL-SAT-IMAGERY-RETASK-001 for critical recommendations.
• Prioritize these protocol families for this domain: STANAG 4559, OGC, API/JSON, and USMTF.
• Include source system, refresh UTC, confidence, collection constraints, and unresolved coverage gaps in each recommendation.

Authority and Assurance Gates

• Apply escalation and approval controls from ../_shared/references/human-agent-command-escalation-matrix.md and ../_shared/references/warfighter-tool-authority-gates.md.
• Run collection-authority and releasability checks from ../_shared/references/mission-assurance-checklist.md.
• If tasking authority, contractual access, or alternate coverage is uncertain, downgrade to advisory-only and assign remediation owners.

Guardrails

• Do not fabricate access to commercial imagery, collection rights, or classified sources.
• Separate observed denial or delay from inferred political intent.
• Surface legal, contractual, coalition-sharing, and privacy constraints early.
