This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 4 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

aps-planning from eddacraft/anvil-plan-spec is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add eddacraft/anvil-plan-spec/aps-planning@git:20260903.28cb5ab

APS awareness, truth validation, and reconciliation. Loads plan context, validates selected work against current project truth before implementation, and reconciles plan state at task boundaries.

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

# APS Planning Skill

## Activation Guard

If `plans/index.aps.md` does not exist in the current project, do nothing.
This skill is inert in projects without APS plans. Do not mention APS, do not
offer to create plans, do not load any context. Silently skip all sections
below.

## Session Start -- Load Context

When a session begins and `plans/index.aps.md` exists, build APS awareness in
working memory. Do this quietly -- do not print output to the user unless they
ask about plan status.

### Step 1: Read the index

Read `plans/index.aps.md`. Extract the Modules table. Identify active modules
-- those whose status is NOT `Done`, `Complete`, `Merged`, `Released`, `Shipped`,
`Released/Shipped`, or `Archived`. Note the plan title and any current-window
notes.

### Step 2: Read active modules

For each active module, read its `.aps.md` file from `plans/modules/`. Extract
all work items with their fields:

- **ID** (e.g., `AUTH-001`)
- **Title**
- **Status** (the native APS CLI currently transitions `Draft`, `Ready`,
  `In Progress`, `Complete`, and `Blocked`; it recognises `Proposed` as `Draft`
  and `Done` as `Complete`. This catalogue additionally follows ADR-0013:
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eddacraft/anvil-plan-spec/aps-planning@sha256:838cbadccfeb9014

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.28cb5ab, 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.
