Route development work by scope, risk, and the need for a lasting work record.

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

# Using development-skills

For development work, read the [development loop](../../shared/development-loop.md).
Read the [engineering contract](../../shared/engineering.md) before design or code changes, and apply `rethink` to each design.
Skip this router for a bounded subagent task.
Resume an active plan at its recorded step. Otherwise select the path that fits the task.
Read [full-path.md](../../shared/full-path.md) only for work that needs a lasting decision record or designed proof.
The loop owns authorization; use `brainstorming` only for material open decisions.
For unavailable Claude tool names, read [Codex tools](references/codex-tools.md).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add reidemeister94/development-skills/using-development-skills@sha256:02ec8fea6f48382d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.a82a617, 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.
