Use when a bank, control account or subledger reconciliation does not agree: tracing each break from the reconciliation row back to the originating ledger entry and source record, stating the cause in one sentence and listing the evidence, owner and next action for review.
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
# Reconciliation break trace Root-cause each difference that a reconciliation leaves open, so the reviewer sees what differs, why and who must act. Run this after `month-end-close`, `year-end-workpapers`, `bas-preparation` or `workpaper-tie-out` reports a reconciliation that does not agree. This skill diagnoses. It does not adjust, plug, post, match or clear anything. ## Inputs needed 1. The reconciliation that does not agree: account, period, ledger balance, source balance and the difference, with the report it came from 2.

The firm's materiality or investigation threshold, if it sets one. Where none is supplied, every difference is traced …

How to install
mdr add ryanduguid/australian-accounting-skills/reconciliation-break-trace@sha256:f818fb4d236a922bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.f683e9a, 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.
