Record a change that reshaped the repository — what moved, why it was worth doing, and which areas it touched. Use after a migration, a rewrite, or a decision that changed how part of the system works.

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

# Record a milestone

A git log says what changed. It rarely says **why the change was worth making**, and never says
which areas moved together. Six months later that is what somebody needs — usually while deciding
whether they are allowed to undo it.

## When to write one

For a change big enough that a newcomer would ask "why is this part like that?"

- a migration — a database, an auth model, a framework
- a rewrite of a module, or a service split in two
- a design reversal: something was done one way, then deliberately undone

Roughly a handful a year on an active repository. If you are writing one a week, they are commits,
not milestones, and the file stops being readable.

## When not to

- **A task, or something in progress.** That is `STATE.md`, or a session record.
- **A single decision with no structural change.** That is `/chamnan:remember` →
  `.chamnan/memory/decisions/`.
- **A repeated procedure.** That is `/chamnan:capture`.
- **Anything with a status, an owner, or a due date.** This is not project management, and adding
  those fields would quietly turn it into a worse version of a tool you already have.

## Where it goes

.chamnan/milestones.md

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arcticfox2029/chamnan/milestone@sha256:d6f5a1d9aed5c3f2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.e1270de, 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.
