Isolate domain logic behind ports it owns while frameworks, databases, and transports live in adapters that plug into those ports. Use when business rules keep getting entangled with the web framework or database and you want the core testable and swappable in isolation.
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
# Hexagonal architecture Also called ports and adapters. The idea is a hard rule: the domain depends on nothing, and everything depends on the domain. When the HTTP handler and the SQL query bleed into the business rules, you cannot test the rules without a server and a database, and you cannot change either without risking the rules. ## Method 1. **Define ports as interfaces the domain owns.** A port is a Python Protocol, a Java interface, a Go interface declared inside the domain package. The domain names the shape it needs, `PaymentGateway.charge(amount)`, and never imports the thing that fulfills it. 2. **Keep the domain import-clean.** No `import requests`, no ORM base class, no framework annotation inside the core. Grep the domain package for your web and database libraries: a single hit is a leak to fix, not to tolerate. 3. **Split ports into driving and driven.** Driving (primary) ports are how the outside calls in: a use-case interface a REST controller invokes. Driven (secondary) ports are how the domain calls out: repositories, gateways, clocks. Naming the two directions keeps the wiring legible. …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/hexagonal-architecture@sha256:7525e7fba7e0cd97The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260718.ea9bc00, 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.
