OSQAr (Open Safety Qualification Architecture)

OSQAr is a documentation-first framework for producing, verifying, and integrating auditable evidence shipments for safety/compliance work.

A shipment is a reviewable bundle containing Sphinx documentation with traceability, plus implementation, tests, and verification reports — all integrity-protected with checksum manifests.

🚀 Getting Started

• Getting Started with OSQAr — start here: what OSQAr is, install, first shipment in 5 minutes

• Using the OSQAr Boilerplate — comprehensive guide: mental model, terms, workflow recipes

• Setting Up A Project From Scratch — scaffold a new project or migrate an existing one

📖 Guides (by role)

• Supplier’s Guide — produce auditable evidence shipments for a component

• Integrator’s Guide — verify, intake, and integrate received shipments

🏢 Professional Deployment

For organizations adopting OSQAr across teams and projects:

• Lifecycle Management — requirements lifecycle, baselines, change management

• Multi-project workflows — workspace orchestration, dependency closure, batch intake

• Collaboration workflows (multi-user) — multi-user workflows, review processes, team coordination

• Integrating Verification into CI — wire OSQAr into GitHub Actions or other CI pipelines

🔧 Reference

• CLI Reference — full per-command reference (all flags, exit codes, examples)

• Configuration and hooks — project/workspace config files, custom commands, hooks

📦 Examples

OSQAr ships with reference examples for C, C++, Rust, and Python:

• All examples

For safety-related embedded projects, OSQAr recommends C or Rust. The Python example is an easy-to-run demo for the documentation and traceability workflow.

Full demonstration — OSQAr-cJSON

For a complete, real-world qualification project, see:

• OSQAr-cJSON — an ISO 26262 SEooC qualification attempt of the cJSON library targeting ASIL D, with CI-driven evidence shipments, 88% statement coverage, 162 Unity tests, and reproducible builds.

🧠 Agent Skills

OSQAr ships with content-authoring skills that help authors — human engineers and AI agents alike — map ISO standards requirements onto OSQAr qualification needs.
