analyze-mini SKILL.md skillA

analyze-mini from tmusser/ai-engineering-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add tmusser/ai-engineering-skills/analyze-mini@git:20260727.5a2073a

Pins git:20260727.5a2073a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Risk-triggered consistency checkpoint that detects when task artifacts, assumptions, or verification no longer support a safe build decision.

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

# Analyze Mini

## Purpose

Prevent stale or contradictory reasoning from crossing into `build-one` without turning analysis into a routine gate.

`analyze-mini` is conditional. The cheap safeguard is an eligibility check over artifacts already being read for build or handoff. Run the full skill only when that check finds a meaningful trigger.

## When to use

Run a full analysis when one or more of these are true:

- `HANDOFF.md` marks analysis `REQUIRED` or `STALE`
- task-defining inputs changed since the last `FRESH` analysis: `SPEC.md`, `PLAN.md`, `TODO.md`, scope-freeze notes, selected task, or a decision/assumption that changes implementation
- the selected task cannot be traced cleanly from acceptance criterion to implementation slice to verification
- an unresolved decision or assumption could materially change implementation shape
- compatibility seams, data/metric semantics, or cross-boundary behavior create interpretation risk
- failed verification caused the implementation strategy or plan to change
- reconciling a stale handoff changed the live task state

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tmusser/ai-engineering-skills/analyze-mini@sha256:55756b8a8f555567

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260727.5a2073a, 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.
