Tekton — the shared architecture-intent substrate for co-designing systems with the agent. One typed graph across six tiers (system / journey / data / infra / decisions / qualities); views are queries, not separate diagrams. The canonical artifact is a diff-friendly YAML model both human and agent read and write; it renders to Mermaid (agent-legible, GitHub-native) and a self-contained tabbed HTML viewer (human-visual). Cross-tier traceability (`tekton query <from> <to>`) answers…
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
# Tekton — co-design architecture over one shared model ## What it is A substrate for **human↔agent architecture partnership**. The design lives in one YAML model both of us edit; git is the round-trip. You *see* it (HTML viewer); I *read and write* the same model. We think over the same context. The failure it fixes: a hand-authored HTML/SVG doc is a terminal render — you can't traverse, query, or edit it back, and its diagrams carry no meaning. Tekton moves the live model **upstream** of the render. ## Engine `scripts/tekton.py` (Python 3, pyyaml). Ontology in `references/ontology.md`. ```bash python3 scripts/tekton.py validate <model.arch.yaml> # integrity check python3 scripts/tekton.py lint <model.arch.yaml> # v0.2 — fitness functions; exit 1 on violation python3 scripts/tekton.py stats <model.arch.yaml> # node/edge/status/rule counts python3 scripts/tekton.py views # list the 6 views python3 scripts/tekton.py mermaid <model.arch.yaml> <view># raw mermaid (embed/agent) python3 scripts/tekton.py render <model.arch.yaml> [-o out.html] # on-brand HTML viewer …

How to install
mdr add broomva/skills/tekton@sha256:7065adfccea588b5The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, 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.
