/arckit:uae-priorities-alignment generates a National Priorities Alignment Statement under the UAE Federal Government Guide to Aligning Digital Government Projects with National Priorities. Captures reuse-vs-build justification, capability-reuse register (UAE Pass, FedNet, etc.), and strategy alignment to NIS 2031 / AI 2031 / Digital Economy Strategy / We the UAE 2031.

Review Checklist
- Strategic alignment matrix references all four national strategies.
- Reuse considered for every major capability before "build" is chosen.
- Capability Reuse Register lists each federal capability used (or explicitly considered and rejected).
- Resource-efficiency calculation is quantitative.
- Pilot / phased plan has named gates and approvals.
- Reuse outputs feed UAE Pass integration design and SOBC.
Key Notes
- Reuse default: Federal Government Guide expects "reuse first, build last" — every "build" decision needs documented justification.
- Run late: This artefact synthesises the UAE-specific stack — run after the upstream UAE commands so it can cite their outputs.
- SOBC integration: Output is designed to flow directly into the Strategic Outline Business Case via
/arckit:sobc. - Community-contributed: Output should be reviewed by qualified federal strategy / compliance counsel before reliance.
