design-increment from danmcinerney/orchflows is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add danmcinerney/orchflows/design-increment@git:20260918.c9794adPins git:20260918.c9794ad in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Turn a goal, options and research into one implementable increment and an old/new evaluation plan.
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
Use the [handoff contract](../../references/design-loop-contract.md). Inputs: request context, baseline, options, research evidence and any prior observations; equivalent caller material suffices. For assignment `design-increment`, choose one coherent increment; explain the choice and rejected alternatives. Specify changed behavior, boundaries, implementation outline, risks and dependencies. The first cycle must target a minimum working PoC from the actual baseline. Return an implementable design and evaluation plan fixed before implementation: acceptance criteria, baseline behavior to preserve, shared inputs/harness and conditions, expected old-state deficits, improvement measures, and required/optional checks. Mark blocking questions. If no change is justified, return that conclusion and evidence for analysis.

How to install
mdr add danmcinerney/orchflows/design-increment@sha256:f5aba92ded67d407The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260918.c9794ad, 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.
