# Design Branch Protection Rules

Produce a repository-appropriate branch protection plan covering pushes, merges, reviews, status checks and exceptions.

## Purpose

This is a publishable P0 built-in DevRunbook package. It is designed for the `plan` work mode with default autonomy `plan` and risk tier `moderate`.

## Required context

- Branch strategy: Describe the intended development and release branch model.
- Team model: Describe who pushes, reviews and administers the repository.

## Completion

- Rules balance safety and realistic workflow.
- Exceptions and rollout risks are documented.
- Validation evidence and unresolved limitations are reported honestly.

## Quality status

Editorially reviewed and covered by static structure and determinism fixtures. It is not represented as execution-validated or battle-tested until the platform stores corresponding evidence.
