Kickoff for a new project, app, or feature: grill, PRD, design, then a plan. Use when the user wants to start, set up, scope, or spec something new before building it. Not when a plan already exists.
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
# Kickoff Take one new project, app, or feature from an idea to a saved plan. Five stages run in order, and Kickoff writes documents only, never product code. A **gate** is the user's confirmation before the next stage starts. Stages 1 and 2 end with one `ask_question` card: **Continue**, **Revise**, **Stop**. Stages 3 and 4 run Impeccable flows that end with their own confirmation; that confirmation is the gate, so don't add a second card. Never start a stage before the previous gate passes. ## Resume from disk Work out the current stage from files, not chat memory. The chat may have been reloaded or compacted, and an agent-started run is not pinned to the chat. Find the **slug** first: from the user's message, from root `PRD.md`'s header, or by listing `documentation/plans/references/*-context.md`. If more than one candidate fits, ask which one. | On disk | Resume at | |---------|-----------| | No `<slug>-context.md` | Stage 1 | | Context file; no PRD | Stage 2 | | PRD; UI work; no `PRODUCT.md` | Stage 3 | | UI work; no design artifact | Stage 4 | | Stages done or skipped; no `documentation/plans/<slug>.md` | Stage 5 | | Plan exists | Finish | Paths by Kind: …

How to install
mdr add henrigrimm/minnow/kickoff@sha256:6efbcdc0166ecb18The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.e20ca80, 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.
