Applies stewardship virtues (Care, Curiosity, Humility, Diligence) to plugin work. Use when authoring plugins or reviewing code quality.

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

# Stewardship

## When To Use

- Working on any plugin and making design decisions
- Reviewing code for quality and contributor experience
- Reflecting at workflow boundaries (pre-commit, post-PR)

## When NOT To Use

- Quick one-line fixes that do not affect design
- External projects outside the night-market ecosystem

Apply these principles whenever you touch a plugin. The full
manifesto with research origins is at `STEWARDSHIP.md` in the
project root.

## The Five Principles

1. **You are a steward, not an owner**: the codebase belongs to
   the community. Write for the reader, not yourself.
2. **Multiply, do not merely preserve**: improve what you touch.
   Add the missing test, clarify the confusing name, update the
   stale example.
3. **Be faithful in small things**: fix the typo, remove the dead
   import, add the type hint. Small acts compound.
4. **Serve those who come after you**: write for the contributor
   who arrives with no context. Prioritize their experience.
5. **Think seven iterations ahead**: prefer simple, transparent
   patterns. Will this design hold up after seven major changes?

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add athola/claude-night-market/stewardship@sha256:8bf20a2b0db1c281

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.7246d08, 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.
