Government: Permit Application Review with Claude Code: SKILL.md Template
A production playbook for permit application review in government operations using Claude Code: skill.md template, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Public sector and regulated industry operations teams
The problem
Public sector and regulated industry operations teams need permit application review to run repeatedly against application forms, evidence, maps, certificates, and agency guidance. In government operations, the pain is not one good answer; it is repeatability, auditability, exception handling, and evidence that survives handoff.
Implementation path
Put the operating procedure in SKILL.md, keep examples beside the skill, attach application forms, evidence, maps, certificates, and agency guidance per run, and let Argo turn the folder into a repeatable Claude Code execution.
Tradeoffs and failure modes
A skill folder is less flexible than an open chat, but it gives the product a versioned workflow that can be tested and rolled back. For permit application review, the practical test is whether a second run can be debugged, retried, and consumed by a product without reading the raw agent transcript.
SKILL.md starter
# SKILL.md
You run permit application review using Claude Code.
Read only /skill/.argo/inputs.
Write artifacts to /skill/output/artifacts.
Return argo.result.v1 with body.type = "government_permit_application_review".
Run this on Argo
