Apply the SOLID principles as design diagnostics, detecting god classes, fragile hierarchies, fat interfaces, and hard-wired dependencies, and prescribing the smallest structural fix rather than imposing ceremony. Use when designing a new module or class, reviewing object-oriented code, or untangling a class that keeps changing for unrelated reasons.

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

Use SOLID to diagnose, not to decorate. Each principle names a specific way designs rot under change; the skill is recognizing the rot early and making the smallest cut that stops it. The failure mode of SOLID is applying it as ceremony - an interface for every class, a factory for every constructor - which produces the same unmaintainability it was meant to prevent, with more files. Every abstraction this skill recommends must be justified by a change pressure that actually exists in this codebase, not one imagined.

## Step 1: Find the change pressure

Before judging any structure, learn what actually changes here:

- `git log --oneline --follow` on the files in question: what has forced edits, and do unrelated reasons keep touching the same file?
- Where have bugs clustered? A class that breaks every time a neighbour changes is telling you where the coupling is.
- What does the team add regularly (new payment providers, new report types, new integrations)? That axis deserves an extension point; axes that never vary do not.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/solid-principles@sha256:84a02cf98e0ba38c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.4ccfb75, 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.
