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

# goga-define-scope

## Purpose

Define the boundaries of the product change.

Transform the established problem, goals, requirements, and constraints into a clear statement of:

- what is included in the current solution;
- what is explicitly excluded;
- what should not be solved as part of this change.

The result must protect the product work from scope creep while ensuring that everything necessary to solve the identified problem remains inside the scope.

---

## Contract

```yaml
consume:
  - product
  - problem
  - goals
  - requirements
  - constraints

produce:
  - scope
```

---

## Core Principle

Scope is a boundary, not a feature list.

The central question is:

> What must be part of this product change to solve the problem, and what deliberately remains outside it?

Scope must be derived from the problem and goals.

Do not define scope based on what happens to be technically convenient or interesting.

---

## Product Interview

Scope boundaries are product decisions.

Do not infer what belongs in or out of scope solely from implementation convenience.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add qarium/goga/goga-define-scope@sha256:68aed21646c3265a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260818.89efbed, 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.
