BDD-driven feature/fix discovery before any implementation. Use when planning a feature, designing a fix, or exploring options before building. Trigger on "pocket-grinding", "brainstorm", "think through", "plan this", "before we build". Invokes pocket-planning at handoff.

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

# Pocket Grinding

Production-grade requirement discovery using BDD principles. Gathers project context, defines scope, questions from three expert lenses, maps concrete examples to scenarios, validates against existing architecture, and produces a spec ready for delegation.

**Core principle:** Scenarios first, design second. Architecture must be validated before handoff. No implementation until spec is approved.

## When to Use

Trigger this skill when:
- Planning a feature whose shape or requirements aren't yet clear, or that spans multiple files/phases (small, clearly-specified additions → `hotfix`)
- Fixing a non-trivial bug with design implications
- Refactoring a system boundary or changing an API contract
- User says "let's think through", "plan this", "explore options", "before we build"

Do NOT use for:
- Trivial single-line fixes (typo, config value, rename)
- Small, well-understood changes touching only **1–4 files** and resolvable in **1–2 requests** → use `hotfix` instead (Phase 1.5 surfaces this off-ramp mid-flow)
- Work that already has an approved spec

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rfxlamia/pocketto/pocket-grinding@sha256:a1e8e539152fb742

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.e11fe76, 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.
