Sets up and installs the AI Software Architect framework in a NEW project for the FIRST time. Use when the user requests "Setup .architecture", "Setup ai-software-architect", "Initialize architecture framework", "Install software architect", or similar setup/installation phrases. Do NOT use for checking status (use architecture-status), creating documents (use create-adr or reviews), or when framework is already set up.
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
# Setup AI Software Architect Framework Sets up and customizes the AI Software Architect framework for a project. ## Overview This skill performs a complete framework installation: 1. Locates the framework source (plugin install dir or legacy clone) 2. Analyzes the target project (languages, frameworks, structure, patterns) 3. Scaffolds `.architecture/` in the target project from framework templates 4. Customizes team members and principles for the detected tech stack 5. Performs an initial system analysis 6. Reports customizations and findings, with explicit next steps **Detailed procedures**: [references/installation-procedures.md](references/installation-procedures.md) **Customization guide**: [references/customization-guide.md](references/customization-guide.md) ## What happens when you run `Setup ai-software-architect` The skill creates a `.architecture/` directory in your **target project** (not in this plugin's repo) and populates it with templates customized for your tech stack. After it finishes you'll have: - `.architecture/decisions/adrs/` — empty, ready for `create-adr` - `.architecture/reviews/initial-system-analysis.md` — your team's first pass at the codebase …

How to install
mdr add codenamev/ai-software-architect/setup-architect@sha256:667af58359f4e17fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.428d29d, 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.
