## Helper prerequisites
This bundled skill supplies methodology text; it does not install the local helper files invoked below. Before running a command using `agent.py` or a `scripts/` path, create that file from a complete implementation when one is supplied, or obtain and review the matching upstream helper. Check its `--help` and dependencies against the shown arguments. If no implementation is available, the invocation is a workflow illustration rather than a runnable command; use the documented underlying tools instead.
# Building Vulnerability Exception Tracking System
## Overview
A vulnerability exception tracking system manages cases where vulnerabilities cannot be remediated within SLA timelines. It provides structured workflows for requesting exceptions, documenting compensating controls, obtaining risk acceptance approvals, and automatically expiring exceptions when their validity period ends. This ensures organizations maintain visibility into accepted risks while complying with frameworks like PCI DSS, SOC 2, and NIST CSF.
## When to Use
