Adding a Custom Framework

Community frameworks live in controls/<slug>/ in the SWAO workspace. Each framework requires two files:

  • framework-meta.yaml -- display name, version, contributor block
  • controls.yaml -- the control definitions

See Contributing for the full contributor guide and schema reference.

SWAO is an Accenture open-source project.
