Capture a FlowGoal contract as `<runtime dir>/goals/<id>.goal.yaml` — outcome, acceptance criteria with verification commands, specification (non-goals, failure modes, interface contracts, risk map), constraints, evaluator binding, continuation policy, lifecycle. Use when /flow:start passes the Spec Validation Gate, when /flow:goal create runs, or when /flow:debug confirms a hypothesis. Acceptance criteria alone are not a contract: without an evaluator binding and boundaries the Stop hook…
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
# Goal Contract Capture
## Contract
Iron law: no goal file without an evaluator binding, and no contract element invented: every specification element is lifted from the journal or escalated. Invoked by `/flow:start` (Phase 1, after the Spec Validation Gate), `/flow:goal create`, and `/flow:debug` (after the confirmed hypothesis) with a goal id, scope, source, and invocation reason (`start | goal-create | review | address | debug`). Returns the written goal path, in `draft`; the caller then invokes `goal-lifecycle` for `draft → active`, which records the `goal-created` journal artifact. Permitted skips: `review` and `address` invocations skip the specification block (they inherit the issue's capture). Nothing else may be skipped.
## Inputs
1. **Goal id**: `issue-{N}`, `pr-{N}-review`, `pr-{N}-address`, or an ad-hoc slug matching `^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]{0,63}$`.
2. **Scope**: `repo`, `branch`, optional `issue`/`pr`, optional `journal` path (`<journal dir>/issue-{N}.md`, the journal dir being what `bin/journal-dir.sh` prints).
3. **Source**: issue body, PR description, or user-supplied outcome.
4. **Invocation reason**: selects the outcome template and `evaluator.type`.

How to install
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/goal-contract-capture@sha256:2d59a2241189d69dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.fe898b3, 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.
