Applies repository-specific Gherkin and BDD conventions to feature files. Use this skill when creating or editing `.feature` files.
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
# Feature Files Authoring ## Discover the Repository Contract Before editing, find and read the repository's agent instructions, contribution guide, feature-file README, documentation standards, test-runner configuration, and nearby feature files. Treat repository rules and established local structure as authoritative. Determine the following without assuming fixed names or locations: - Feature-file roots and component or suite layout. - Allowed tags and their placement. - Required user-story or narrative format. - Requirement and specification traceability formats. - Supported Gherkin dialect and runner. - Formatting, linting, dry-run, and test commands. If identifier allocation or a required tag cannot be derived safely, ask for direction instead of inventing it. ## Author Executable Behavior - Keep each feature focused on one coherent capability unless repository rules explicitly permit cross-component coverage. - Describe observable behavior and outcomes rather than implementation details. - Use domain language consistently with requirements, specifications, and existing scenarios. - Give each scenario one clear behavioral purpose. …

How to install
mdr add cypher0n3/dotagents/feature-files-authoring@sha256:77c92605e177fe69The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.eb38ca7, 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.
