Use when a build, QA pass, demo, user complaint, or abandoned attempt leaves the next pass needing lessons rather than code. Not for changelog extraction. Not for session handoff: use handoff.

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

# Cycle memo

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | After a build, QA pass, demo, user complaint, or abandoned attempt when the useful output is what the next pass must learn rather than the code itself. |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes or refreshes only local docs under the project; rollback is restoring or deleting those docs. No VCS, credential, published, deployed, or remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Writes or refreshes local docs for the cycle: a memo for lessons and a plan for next-cycle contracts, gates, and vocabulary. |
| Done | Every lesson traces to observed cycle evidence; every anti-pattern names a concrete failure mode and the gate that catches it; no lesson is a single reported case in disguise (each covers a class with specifics as evidence); a fresh agent can tell what to preserve, discard, and test first without reading the whole old session. |

## Inputs

Required: the original objective for the cycle and the final artifact it produced. Without both, lessons cannot be traced to evidence and the skill stops blocked.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add outlinedriven/outline-driven-development/cycle-memo@sha256:51cc5ec890f5106d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.5c5b759, 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.
