spec-conformance skillA

spec-conformance is agent-read markdown (skill) from clickety-clacks/tightbeam: A verdict rests on a clause-by-clause reading of the ask against the work: satisfied, unsatisfied, unproven, or out-of-scope, each with evidence, each weighed by whether the MVP needs it. Use to build the clause table behind a verdict..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified before it reaches your agent: the main file against the SHA-256 recorded here, the others against the git hashes of its source commit. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Spec conformance

The clause table is how you SEE the work, not the verdict. It proves the review
happened and shows which clause carried which evidence; the verdict is the facet
adjudication applied to it. A verdict without the table is a rubber stamp. A table
that blocks on every row is the other failure.

1. Read the ask at its source. Under heavy posture that is the canonical spec at its
   canonical path (verify the work item's pinned sha256 when present; conformance is
   owed to the ruling text). Under light posture the work item's input is the spec:
   enumerate its asks as the clauses. Either way, list every requirement clause: every
   invariant, every acceptance item, every stated behavior. Non-goals enter the list
   as exclusions to verify.
2. Mark each clause must-have or post-mvp before you look at the code: can the ask
   ship without it? This is the facet adjudication from `reviewer-code.md`,
   carried down to clause grain.
3. Classify each clause with evidence:
   - **satisfied**: the implementation meets it, and you can cite the code, test, or
     run output that proves it.
   - **unsatisfied**: the implementation contradicts or omits it; cite where.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add clickety-clacks/tightbeam/spec-conformance@git:20260905.dbe46a8
Exact content
mdr add clickety-clacks/tightbeam/spec-conformance@sha256:535be8720dada5b3

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 for exact bytes. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install fetches those bytes again and checks them, so it installs them exactly or fails.
