Use when the user invokes /cdev (with or without arguments) in a repo conditioned for continuous autonomous development, or asks to run the active sprint, "follow the plan", "sigue el plan", or overnight/unattended work — starts the single execution loop, adapted through the role profile the repo resolves to.

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

# CDev — the execution loop

Single entry point, single loop. Invoking it is the **elevated autonomy** mandate: work
proactively assuming what the project needs and stop **only at real blockages** — never to ask
what to do next.

The repo is the memory: `SPRINTS.md` = plan · `AGENT_PROGRESS.md` = handoff · git = state. The
repo's specifics live in its `docs/develop/AGENT_EXECUTION_PROTOCOL.md`; the role's specifics
live in a **role profile**; this skill is the generic operating system and the autonomy
threshold. If the repo's protocol is stricter about *when to stop and ask*, this explicit
invocation elevates it; on safety gates the strictest always wins.

## Resolve the role

Read the repo guide (`AGENTS.md`; hosts with their own filename read it through a pointer,
e.g. `CLAUDE.md`) and `docs/develop/` (RECOGNITION document if present, protocol).
Then load the matching profile from this package's `profiles/` directory: resolve this skill's
base directory to its **real path first** (dereference junctions/symlinks), then go to
`../../profiles/`:

- **Backend** (API/services/own schema, no UI) → `profiles/backend.md`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add elmayii/cdev/cdev@sha256:e825a928b71df604

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260815.3aeef27, 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.
