Write a north-star architecture document that sequences migrations and guides decisions without pretending to be a roadmap. Use when a team's technical direction is unclear or every design debate restarts from zero.

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

# Technical vision

A technical vision is the shared picture of where the architecture is
going and why, so that a hundred independent decisions pull in the
same direction instead of scattering. It is not a roadmap (no dates,
no deliverables) and not a fantasy (it sequences reachable steps); it
is the coherence that lets teams decide locally and still converge.

## Method

1. **State the destination and the why.** The target
   architecture in a few Container-level diagrams (see
   architecture-diagrams) and the forces driving it
   (scaling limits hit, team boundaries, a strategic
   capability the current shape cannot support): the *why*
   is what lets people apply the vision to situations it
   did not anticipate. A destination without a rationale
   gets cargo-culted or ignored.
2. **Anchor in current reality, honestly.** Describe the
   system as it actually is (the real diagram, not the
   aspirational one: see architecture-diagrams' honesty
   rule), including the debt and the ugly parts; a vision
   that pretends the starting point is clean produces a
   plan that does not survive contact with the codebase
   (see tech-debt-register).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/technical-vision@sha256:26419b0f2686fad6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.c4fdb05, 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.
