Plan and execute material repository changes with the AI SAFE2 development method. Use when a coding task needs a delivery-shape decision, risk-adjusted design depth, isolated implementation, test-first or explicit substitute evidence, systematic debugging, review cadence, before/after comparison, or a completion receipt. Do not use for read-only explanations, trivial edits, or as authority to merge, release, deploy, accept risk, or change policy.

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

# AI SAFE2 Development Method

Convert software-development discipline into decision evidence. Keep policy,
implementation, verification, semantic review, and human authority separate.

## Workflow

1. Read the nearest repository instructions and current policy before acting.
2. Classify delivery shape independently from risk:
   - `spike`: disposable learning; implementation does not become production output.
   - `bounded`: limited scope with explicit acceptance conditions and exclusions.
   - `architectural`: cross-boundary or durable design requiring a written spec and plan.
3. Create a `safe2.development-plan-source.v1` source and run
   `safe2 dev plan SOURCE --output PLAN`. Use the repository policy when present.
4. If the plan is `review_required`, pause only for the named missing decision.
   Low- and medium-risk bounded work may proceed under existing user authority.
   Never work around an `invalid` plan.
5. Isolate repository-changing work. Preserve unrelated user changes.
6. Use the selected evidence mode:
   - code: observe a failing behavior first, then the passing behavior;
   - existing ambiguous behavior: characterize before changing it;
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cyberstrategyinstitute/ai-safe2-framework/ai-safe2-development-method@sha256:dbd29a0688936329

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.c1c1302, 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.
