Manage technical programs made of multiple related projects, products, teams, or vendors: establish the program mandate and benefits, align component work, manage cross-project dependencies and shared capacity, govern risks and decisions, coordinate transformation and adoption, and communicate program health to executives, delivery teams, and partners. Use when the work is a coordinated change larger than one project or when component projects are locally green but the combined outcome is at…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Technical Program Management

Program-level control can fail even when every component is on its own track. Use this skill to see and manage the seams, not to replace project managers or product governance.

## First move: prove the program boundary

A program is not a larger project: it exists because coordination, shared constraints, or benefits across components require decisions that no component owner can make alone.

Read existing strategy, business case, component plans, dependency records, benefits
assumptions, and recent status evidence before creating ceremony. Establish:

- the shared outcome and why the components belong together;
- the senior accountable owner and program decision rights;
- component projects/workstreams, owners, interfaces, and operational recipients;
- expected benefits, benefit owners, measures, baselines, timing, and disbenefits;
- shared capacity, funding, architecture, vendors, environments, and policy constraints;
- the current phase, critical decision, evidence gaps, and stop/revisit conditions.

If the work is one bounded project, route to [technical-project-management](../technical-project-management/SKILL.md).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add magnus919/agent-skills/technical-program-management@sha256:e221720962ae04e7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.e28b44f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
