+# Policy Tools Tests Charter
+
+## Mission
+Validate policy tool runner behavior and deterministic outputs.
+
+## Responsibilities
+- Keep tests deterministic and offline-friendly.
+- Use local fixtures; avoid network calls.
+- Track task status in `TASKS.md`.
+
+## Required Reading
+- `docs/modules/policy/architecture.md`
+- `docs/modules/platform/architecture-overview.md`
+
+## Working Agreement
+- 1. Update task status in the sprint file and local `TASKS.md`.
+- 2. Prefer fixed timestamps and stable temp paths.
+- 3. Add tests for new runner behaviors and summary outputs.
