Separating what is actually established about a feature request from what has been filled in: a ledger in which every fact carries its source, every assumption carries what would falsify it, and every unknown carries the impact of getting it wrong. Use at the start of a feature, when a request is one sentence long and the work is not, when a plan or an estimate is being built on statements nobody has checked, when two people describe the same feature differently, when picking up a feature…

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

# Feature Discovery

## Purpose

Feature rework can start with a sentence that entered the plan as a fact but was never established.
It may arrive as a reasonable inference — "they will want this exported too", "the
existing queue is obviously the right one" — and by the time it is contradicted, code depends
on it.

This skill produces one artefact: a ledger that makes the difference between knowing and
guessing visible, so that later phases can be trusted to know which is which.

## Workflow

1. **Read the request and its supplied evidence.** Preserve the request's material phrases;
   interpretation is a separate line. When inputs are paths, attachments or an existing
   ledger, open the relevant material before classifying its contents. Follow a direct citation
   when needed to check a material claim and accessible within the task; record inaccessible
   evidence as an access gap. Reading identified inputs is not a new repository investigation.
2. **Classify material statements into four classes.** Facts, assumptions, unknowns, decisions
   — split compound claims that affect the feature; omit unrelated detail. The classification
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add robsonkades/agent-skills/feature-discovery@sha256:c2d2265c91719d5f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.c769bd8, 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.
