Orient a spec-driven jig/servo/shaper repository with a read-only, project-wide briefing: start from the `workflow.py orient` headline, then survey open pull requests and unmerged work, Proposed ADRs, DEFERRED triggers, refinement items, release plans, the inbox, and the bug board; render one readable headline, titled sections, one recommendation, and an owning-skill handoff. Use when the user invokes `/jig:orient` or explicitly asks for a whole-project session pickup, a return-after-time-away…

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

# Orient

**One job: tell the user where the project stands and what to do next, in a shape
they can actually read.**

The user runs `/jig:orient` (or asks to be oriented) — the calm manager's question,
*"where do things stand, and what should I pick up?"* Orient answers it by reading
the project's own truth (not guessing), and presenting it in **one fixed, scannable
layout**: a headline that tells the honest state, then a short stack of **titled
sections**, each a list of **titled bullets** — never a wall of inline prose with
items buried mid-sentence.

The substance is grounded; the **format is the point**. If the answer reads like a
paragraph with five things crammed into it, the skill has failed even if every fact is
right.

This is a **project-level rescan**, not a mid-flow nudge. A bare conversational
*"what's next?"* while actively implementing a slice is asking to continue that slice
— not to re-survey the whole project. Orient is for the deliberate "step back and take
stock" moment (an explicit `/jig:orient`, a session pickup, a "where are we overall").

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ramboz/jig/orient@sha256:1bd4f500d023f03f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.13a691a, 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.
