Files a new tech-debt GitHub issue for an out-of-scope code-review finding. Builds the dedup key, skips an open or declined-closed match, else creates the labeled issue and touches the debt-count sentinel. Trigger on asks like "file a tech-debt issue", "record this as tech-debt", "file this finding as debt". Do NOT trigger on draining, fixing, listing, or prioritizing existing debt (that's `/gaia-debt`), nor on general "clean up the code" or "fix this bug" asks that aren't about filing a new…
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
# File a tech-debt issue This skill is the single source of truth for turning one out-of-scope finding (a real problem spotted while reviewing something else, and therefore not fixed in place) into a durable, deduplicated GitHub issue. It covers building the key, checking for a prior match, filing when there is none, and nudging the debt-count display to refresh. It does not decide *which* findings are out-of-scope, does not fix anything, and takes the caller's word on whether a finding is security-sensitive (section 0), it only files. **Callers own their own bookkeeping around this recipe.** Some callers record their own disposition-ledger entry and gate their own downstream state on it after filing succeeds; others file and stop. That bookkeeping is caller-specific and lives in the caller, not here. Follow the steps below exactly as written; do not invent a bookkeeping record, a completion flag, or a run-tracking step of your own on top of them, that would duplicate (or fight with) whatever the caller already does. …

How to install
mdr add gaia-react/gaia/file-tech-debt@sha256:407548c5c1a2d9f8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.61b8186, 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.
