brief SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

Use when a problem, idea, or change of intent is worth capturing as a long-form page, or the person asks to write it up. Never chooses a solution; the tracker issue belongs to create-ticket.
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
# Brief
A brief says what is wrong or wanted, for whom, and how a user would know it is solved. It survives a change of approach, because it contains no approach. Alternatives belong in the options document. Steps belong in the plan.
## Capture the intent
- Preserve the person's language and constraints. Ground every statement in a source: the conversation, an issue, a bug report, the code.
- Keep four things visibly apart: facts, decisions already made, proposals, and open questions. Label suspected causes and unmeasured impact as such.
- Capture the trigger: what happened, what was expected, and what it costs. For a new idea, capture the unmet need.
- When the request arrives with a solution attached ("add patches to cut editing costs"), look at the actual behaviour and cost first, and write the problem underneath it.
- Ask what is missing instead of inventing it: what prompted this, who is affected, what a good result would enable, what would make the current approach good enough.
- Read the code, or give a fresh-context subagent one question to answer with the `gather-evidence` skill, when a fact about today's behaviour is needed. Give the subagent just that question.

How to install
mdr add greenfield-inc/pane/brief@sha256:260269765ac14942The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.44e305d, 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.
