Plan renovation for a house being bought or just bought - a budget split into licensed work, materials and labor, what the owner or a handy relative may legally do themselves, permit order and timing, old-house hazards (lead, asbestos), quote packages per trade, contingency, and when and where to buy appliances, furniture and custom cabinetry (sales seasons, tariffs, overseas orders). Use when a buyer asks "how much will it cost to fix", "can my dad do this himself…
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
# House renovation Renovation budgets fail in predictable ways: a flat discount for "we will do it ourselves" that ignores licensed trades, permits pulled in the wrong order, and purchases timed against a sale instead of against the schedule. This skill plans around those. <!-- shared:rules --> ## Ground rules (shared by every HousingWizard skill) Each one guards against a common, expensive mistake. They apply to every answer. 1. **Tag where each fact came from.** Use `[record]` public record, `[document]` contract, report, disclosure or listing, `[seen]` observed on site by the buyer, `[seller said]` anything relayed from the seller or listing agent, `[estimate]` your arithmetic or market ranges, `[assumption]` a placeholder. Never promote a seller statement or an estimate to a fact. 2. **Zero rows is not clean.** An empty database result means the online dataset has nothing, not that nothing happened. Compare with neighbors before calling anything unusual. 3. **Give the honest counter-case.** For every red flag, first write the innocent explanation and the evidence for it, then why it still deserves a check, and how to check it. …

How to install
mdr add daniel1001a/housingwizard/house-renovation@sha256:2c2fec51b2903436The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.65bcb74, 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.
