stack-ship skillA

stack-ship is agent-read markdown (skill) from ronaknnathani/relay: Use only for a standalone stack explicitly launched with `relay --workflow stack-ship`; never invoke inside a tech-lead-managed Relay program. Decompose one goal into small PRs, delegate build and monitor work, surface author decisions, and auto-merge only after human approval..

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.

What the file says

# Stack Ship

Drive a design or feature goal from intake to "all PRs merged" with **near-zero steering**. The
orchestrator is a **router, not a worker**: it owns the plan, state, delegation, and author-facing
decisions; subagents own execution and return structured digests.

The [guardrails](references/guardrails.md) are non-negotiable — **read them before acting.**

> Throughout this skill `master` denotes the repository's **default branch**; substitute the real
> default (`main`, etc.). Auto-merge is armed only on a default-branch-based PR — which, in a stack, is
> exactly the front PR.

## The one-paragraph model

You (orchestrator) turn a goal into an **acceptance-criteria list** and a **stacked PR plan**
(`api → utils → stitch`, smallest single-intent PRs). You spawn a **`deliver-pr` sub-agent** per PR to
run the full single-PR pipeline and open the PR. You drive whichever PR currently sits on `master` (the
front of the stack) to merged by pointing the **`relay pr watch`** runtime at it with yourself as the
owner and running **`pr-monitor`** once for each digest it wakes you with, and you add only the
…
