Applies microkernel architecture with minimal core and plugin extensibility. Use when building platforms where third parties extend core functionality.
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
# The Microkernel (Plugin) Architecture Paradigm ## When To Use - Building extensible systems with plugin architectures - Products requiring customer-specific customizations ## When NOT To Use - Monolithic applications without plugin extensibility needs - Systems where all features are core and tightly coupled by design ## When to Employ This Paradigm - When building platforms, Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), data ingestion pipelines, or marketplaces where third parties need to extend core functionality. - When the core system requires extreme stability, while extensions and features must evolve and change rapidly. - When isolating optional dependencies and sandboxing untrusted code provided by plugins is critical. ## Adoption Steps 1. **Define Core Services**: Clearly delineate the minimal responsibilities of the microkernel, such as scheduling, component lifecycle management, core domain primitives, and messaging. 2. **Specify the Plugin Contract**: Design and document the formal contract for all plugins, including registration procedures, capability descriptors, lifecycle hooks (e.g., start, stop), and the permission model. …

How to install
mdr add athola/claude-night-market/architecture-paradigm-microkernel@sha256:15554e32e1e2c9daThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.ad5ceb4, 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.
