Decide whether an addition belongs in the thing being changed at all, for any language, project or task. Use before adding, changing, reviewing or fixing anything - creating a feature or a new unit, changing an existing one, reviewing a change, or fixing code after a review. Domain skills supply the concrete boundary rules; this skill supplies the concept, the outcomes and how each activity applies them.
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
# Change Scope Every unit of work - a module, a package, a service, a library, a component - has a purpose. Scope is the question whether an addition belongs inside that purpose. Ask it before writing anything, and again when judging what someone else wrote. This skill holds the concept. A domain skill holds the rules for its kind of unit: how the boundary is derived, which lists are closed, where the exception record lives, and how a finding is written. When a domain skill has scope rules, apply them through this skill. When none exists, apply the principles here directly and say that no domain rules were available. ## What scope answers, and what it does not Scope answers one question: does this addition belong here. It does not answer whether the addition is worth doing, how well it is written, or how many people want it. Quality stays with the domain's other checks, and nothing here overrides them. A narrow audience is not a scope failure: there is no mechanical test for it. ## Outcomes | Outcome | When | Resolved by | |---------|------|-------------| …

How to install
mdr add modulestf/modulestf/change-scope@sha256:72623a3ed2452b00The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.de257cf, 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.
