The NHS already has DCB0129/0160 clinical safety standards - the gap isn't missing frameworks, it's that they're often treated as paperwork rather than live safety cases. Worth asking whether 'documentation' is the right lever, or whether assurance should be tied to deployment gates.

10/ `SAFETY.md` started back from first principles too - obtaining new copies of all the original DCB0129 and 0160 source documents, processing them into Markdown again (much faster in 2026!), and developing the 'proto-standard' to make it scale from one file up to a full CSMF + Hazard Log

8/ Earlier this year I got to know about #ArcKit, an incredible suite of LLM skills for all kinds of documentation and compliance tasks across ALL OF GOVERNMENT I.T!

I decided to contribute some #DCB0129 and #MDR documentation to see how it worked. It's amazing.

7/ Next up I worked with some friends to build a simple open source platform around this template.
github.com/turva-uk/dcb...
The idea was that the free service would allow a CSO to make and manage a few CSMFs.
No Word docs for your CSMF.
No Excel sheets for Hazard Logs.
Definitely better, but..

5/ Then I thought we could do with a GitHub Template Repo for this, so that future projects could have a very easy path to a comprehensive Clinical Safety documentation site.

However the CSOs I showed this to found it was a bit too techy to get going...

4/ One of the first steps was to get a version of the DCB0129 specification that was not in a PDF.
I pulled it all out into Markdown with scripts and manual editing (in 2021 - WAY before LLMs mate)

3/ Over the years I've gathered some of the learning around 'How We Do Open Source MDR and DCB0129 Documentation' - so this thread will be a bit of a showcase of that stuff.
It's all open source.
The best ones will be the last and latest.
