Extracts and structures development decisions from diffs, manages decision journal entries, and detects human gate triggers. Use when logging decisions during gh-start, gh-commit, or gh-address. Use when summarizing decisions for PR bodies or when checking for gate-triggering changes like new dependencies, security modifications, or scope deviations.
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
# Decision Journal Captures, structures, and persists significant decisions made during AI-driven workflow execution. Uses post-hoc extraction from diffs rather than AI self-reporting during execution. ## Purpose In a fully AI-driven workflow, decisions happen invisibly. This skill makes them visible by: - Extracting decisions from completed diffs (what changed vs. what was expected) - Detecting high-stakes changes that warrant human approval (gates) - Structuring decisions into a machine-parseable journal format - Condensing journals into PR-body-ready summaries ## Mode Routing This skill operates in one of three modes. The calling command specifies the mode in its invocation prompt. | Mode | When Used | What It Does | |------|-----------|-------------| | `init` | gh-start after branch creation | Creates journal file header | | `log` | gh-start, gh-commit, gh-address after changes | Extracts decisions from diff + evaluates gate triggers | | `summarize` | gh-pr during PR content generation | Condenses journal for PR body | …

How to install
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/decision-journal@sha256:a0fa02d611efe8c3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260306.fe36a41, 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.
