Model-Card

A standards-anchored template system for documenting large language models: a single YAML master source generates synchronised Word, Excel, Markdown, and JSON outputs, with role-based guidance for developers, reviewers, auditors, and downstream integrators.

What it demonstrates about governed AI

This site's own glossary defines a model card as documentation of a model's capabilities, limitations, and known risks. This repo is a working answer to the practical failure mode that definition doesn't cover: four different audiences each want the model card in a different format, and those four copies drift apart the moment any one of them is hand-edited.

What it is

A versioned schema (a 'master contract' defining every field's type and requirement status) plus rendering and validation scripts, anchored to NIST AI RMF 1.0, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act. The rule the README states plainly: never hand-edit a generated file — edit the YAML and re-render.

Governance notes

The controls built into the work, and the risks they answer, linked back to the Library.

Single source, multiple outputs Library entry
A schema-versioned YAML file generates every downstream format, so a model card can't quietly drift out of sync with itself across a Word version, an Excel version, and a Markdown version.
Role-based guidance
Separate guidance for developers, reviewers, auditors, and downstream integrators — the same audience-register discipline this site applies to board, heads-of, and practitioner readers, applied to one document instead of one site.
