License
a license file GitHub does not identify

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

# SDD workflow (Codex CLI)

This project uses the sdd spec-driven development workflow. Large changes (>150 lines /
3+ files / new dependency / architecture choice) go through the gated flow instead of
being implemented directly:

```
$spec-research → $spec-ask → ($spec-design) → $spec-propose → [HARD GATE] → $spec-apply → $spec-verify → $spec-archive
```

Rules that bind you, the agent:

- **Never write project source before the HARD GATE is approved.** After emitting the
  `<HARD-GATE>` block at the end of `$spec-propose`, stop and wait for the user. The
  `<!-- APPROVED: ... -->` marker is appended by `$spec-apply` itself — do not add it,
  and never add it on the user's behalf.
- **Artifacts are fixed**: `spec/changes/<name>/` holds research.md, design.md (optional),
  proposal.md, tasks.md (optional), verify.md; project-durable facts go to
  `spec/knowledge.md`. Inventing extra artifact files requires explicit user approval.
- **Verification is independent**: `$spec-verify` spawns the spec-verifier agent
  (`~/.codex/agents/spec-verifier.toml`) with a fresh context. The conversation that
  implemented a change never audits itself.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kamioj/spec-workflow/codex/AGENTS.md@sha256:c9dd3f559ac1e329

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260714.2d7154d, 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.
