Use when designing levels, comp bands, equity-vs-cash, geo adjustments, or raise vs promotion vs market correction. Triggers on 'set our comp bands', 'is this raise market'.
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
# comp-banding ## When to use - Levels and comp bands need a first pass (or an annual refresh) and the question is *what shape the ladder takes*, *where the bands sit*, and *how cash / equity trade*. - A specific compensation decision crosses the desk (counter-offer, retention, market correction, promotion, geo move) and the question is *which lever is the right one*. - A funding event, geo expansion, or org-stage transition makes the existing comp shape misfit reality. Do NOT use as a payroll / equity-administration substitute (this skill produces the cognition; payroll / cap-table tools implement), as an individual-performance review (route to Q4 `perf-feedback-craft`), or for hiring-loop / sourcing design (separate skill area). ## Cognition cluster - **Mental model 1 — First principles.** Strip every comp question to: *what behavior are we paying for, over what horizon, with what risk-bearing?* Cash pays for present effort; equity pays for future co-built value with risk; bonus pays for outcome-linked behavior. Mixing the levers without first-principles intent produces confusion. See [`mental-models.md`](../../../docs/contracts/mental-models.md) § 1. …

How to install
mdr add event4u-app/agent-config/comp-banding@sha256:09b1ad2edc42447eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260603.668ed88, 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.
