Use when the user wants a small, ad-hoc change handled with GSD guarantees (atomic commits, STATE.md) but without the full pipeline. Tasks land in .planning/quick/; --full, --discuss, --research, --validate add the skipped agents back.
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
<objective> Execute small, ad-hoc tasks with GSD guarantees (atomic commits, STATE.md tracking). Quick mode is the same system with a shorter path: - Spawns gsd-planner (quick mode) + gsd-executor(s) - Quick tasks live in `.planning/quick/` separate from planned phases - Updates STATE.md "Quick Tasks Completed" table (NOT ROADMAP.md) **Default:** Skips research, discussion, plan-checker, verifier. Use when you know exactly what to do. **`--discuss` flag:** Lightweight discussion phase before planning. Surfaces assumptions, clarifies gray areas, captures decisions in CONTEXT.md. Use when the task has ambiguity worth resolving upfront. **`--full` flag:** Enables the complete quality pipeline — discussion + research + plan-checking + verification. One flag for everything. **`--validate` flag:** Enables plan-checking (max 2 iterations) and post-execution verification only. Use when you want quality guarantees without discussion or research. **`--research` flag:** Spawns a focused research agent before planning. Investigates implementation approaches, library options, and pitfalls for the task. Use when you're unsure of the best approach. …

How to install
mdr add coco-research/coco/gsd-quick@sha256:ff7ce04432af2ceeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.e75f220, 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.
