# FileGRC

> Run a SOC 2 program as files in Git.

## What it is

FileGRC is a Git-native GRC workspace for founder-led engineering teams. It
connects policies, controls, evidence, recurring work, event checklists, program
readiness, audit readiness, and audit packets in one reviewable repository.

JSON holds structured records. Markdown holds long-form work. Git supplies file
history, authors, timestamps, diffs, commit messages, and revisions.

## Start a workspace

```sh
npx create-filegrc@latest company-grc
cd company-grc
npm run validate
npm run serve
```

The starter content is a proposal. Management must review policies, tailor
controls, name owners, connect evidence sources, and record work that actually
occurred before treating records as final.

## Product path

1. Define the service boundary and criteria.
2. Review and approve policies.
3. Tailor and implement controls.
4. Connect evidence sources and prove collection works.
5. Operate recurring and event-driven work.
6. Record the CPA engagement and prepare the audit packet.

## Interfaces

- Local web app for people maintaining the program
- CLI for engineers, agents, and CI
- Plain JSON and Markdown for direct review
- Read-only build for sharing a committed program state

## Boundaries

FileGRC manages GRC records and audit evidence. It does not replace workforce,
identity, source-control, deployment, infrastructure, monitoring, endpoint,
backup, vulnerability, training, signature, procurement, contract, vendor-risk,
or auditor systems.

FileGRC checks management preparation and packet integrity. The independent CPA
firm selects samples, tests controls, evaluates exceptions, judges evidence,
and issues the SOC 2 report.
