pbb-design skillA

pbb-design is agent-read markdown (skill) from romabeckman/harness-kit: Designs a Product Backlog using the Product Backlog Building (PBB) methodology from an initial product or feature scope..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

## Mode Detection — Resolve Before Anything Else

```text
IF invoked by autonomous-orchestrator or an explicit autonomous runtime context:
    mode = AUTONOMOUS
    Skip all interactive prompts.
    For each decision-relevant gap:
        Generate a suggested answer and rationale.
        Use the suggested answer as the resolved answer.
        Set answered_by = "model".
        Mark the answer as a provisional model assumption.
    Continue through backlog generation without pausing.

OTHERWISE:
    mode = INTERACTIVE
    For each decision-relevant gap:
        Ask one question at a time.
        Show the suggested answer and rationale.
        Let the human accept, replace, defer, or mark the answer unknown.
        Preserve the human answer exactly.
        Set answered_by = "human" for accepted or replaced answers.
    Do not finalize the backlog until all questions are answered, deferred, or
    marked unknown.
```

In both modes, apply resolved answers to affected problems, expectations,
personas, functionalities, and PBIs before final validation. Never present an
autonomous answer as a confirmed business fact.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add romabeckman/harness-kit/pbb-design@git:20260918.5fe8074
Exact content
mdr add romabeckman/harness-kit/pbb-design@sha256:bfdea3f861e476bd

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
