# gz-adr-check

Run the ADR evidence gate using `gz adr audit-check`.

## When to Use

- Before marking an ADR Completed/Validated
- During CI checks for a target ADR
- Before `gz closeout`, `gz attest`, or `gz audit`

## Invocation

```bash
uv run gz adr audit-check ADR-0.3.0
uv run gz adr audit-check ADR-0.3.0 --json
```

## Behavior

- Verifies linked OBPI briefs are complete and evidence-ready
- Returns non-zero on missing evidence or incomplete briefs
- Produces JSON output for automation when `--json` is used
