+# Social Calendar Governance Skill
+
+## When to Use
+- Building or auditing cross-network publishing schedules.
+- Coordinating regional calendars or blackout dates (events, outages, compliance windows).
+- Running retros after missed posts or conflicting campaigns.
+
+## Framework
+1. **Cadence Rules** – define min/max posts per channel/day, quiet hours, and pacing relative to paid media.
+2. **Coverage & Localization** – ensure global timezones, languages, and partner regions have representation.
+3. **Dependency Checks** – align with product launches, events, newsletters, or PR activity to avoid clashes.
+4. **Approval Milestones** – map review deadlines backwards from publish times; include contingency buffers.
+5. **Audit & Change Control** – maintain version history, note last-minute overrides, and capture rationale.
+
+## Templates
+- Calendar governance checklist (cadence, blackout, approvals, localization, dependencies).
+- Timezone coverage heatmap (channel × region × daypart).
+- Change-log template for late edits or cancellations.
+
+## Tips
+- Publish a weekly "calendar health" snapshot for stakeholders.
+- Pair with automation scripts that flag double-bookings or empty slots.
+- Store governance docs alongside calendars for auditability.
