Use when code is written or changed that adds a module or changes a module's public interface, in any tier. Produces an interface shaped before the code behind it, and the bar it must meet at merge. Not for designing the interface with the person (deepen-module) and not for code that leaves every interface as it was.
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
# Guide: deep modules **Applies** to any new module, and any change to what an existing module exposes: its exports, its signatures, what its callers must know. ## Shaping step 1. Before the code behind it, write the interface: the one entry point a caller uses, as signatures. 2. Name what stays inside: every type, helper and state a caller does not need. 3. Check each caller: it calls the entry, never reaches past it. 4. The interface is contested, or callers already know too much: stop and run the `deepen-module` skill. ## Ok at merge - Callers import the entry point alone; nothing behind it is imported from outside. - The interface is smaller than what it hides. - No caller was changed to work around the module.

How to install
mdr add ovich/swarmstorm/guide-deepen-module@sha256:8c3d0bb5e2a3a50eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.0f93e64, 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.
