context-anchoring SKILL.md skillA
context-anchoring from techygarg/lattice is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add techygarg/lattice/context-anchoring@git:20260903.6d09876Pins git:20260903.6d09876 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Manage per-feature living documents that capture decisions, constraints, and reasoning across AI sessions during active development. Scoped to feature-level work — design, implementation, bugfix, refactor — not for codebase-wide assessments or product-wide specifications (those define their own document lifecycles). Handles creating new context documents, loading existing ones, and enriching them with new decisions. Use when starting a new feature, resuming work, making technical decisions…
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
# Context Anchoring ## Scope > Feature-level only — anchors decisions as a feature flows from design → implementation → bugfix → refactor. ## Config Resolution This skill manages a directory of per-feature context docs. Resolution order: 1. Read `.lattice/config.yaml` in the repo root. 2. If found and `paths.context_base` is set → use that directory as the context base (the Create behavior creates it on demand). 3. If there is no config file or no `paths.context_base` key → use the default `.lattice/context/`. Each feature gets one doc at `<context_base>/<feature-name>.md`. No default principles, no overlay modes, no override files -- just a thin template and per-feature docs that grow through enrichment. ## Why Context Anchors Exist AI has no persistent memory across sessions. Early decisions get contradicted, naming drifts, and the "why" evaporates -- a forgotten decision becomes a potential contradiction, a lost constraint becomes a violation, an unresolved question becomes a silent assumption. Context anchor docs prevent this by being: - **Feature-bound** -- one doc per feature, scoped decisions only …

How to install
mdr add techygarg/lattice/context-anchoring@sha256:df2187d3c96bff44The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.6d09876, 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.
