Review designs, products, and features with Steve Jobs'' standards: ruthless simplicity, focus, and end-to-end excellence.

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.

# Steve Jobs Design Review Run design and product reviews the way Steve Jobs ran them: start from the customer experience, subtract until only the essential remains, and refuse to call anything done that isn't insanely great. ## Core Principle **"You've got to start with the customer experience and work backwards to the technology."** Review every product from what a customer sees, feels, and accomplishes — never from the feature list, the org chart, or the technology that happened to be available. And remember the standard: "Design is not just what it looks like and feels like.

Bands: **9-10** = insanely great, ships; **5-8** = real cuts and fixes required; **≤4** = not done, back to demos. There is no "pretty good"; state the score, the exact rows that failed, and the specific cuts or fixes required to reach 10/10. ## Framework ### 1. Simplicity Is the Ultimate Sophistication …

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.
