spec-contract skillA

spec-contract is agent-read markdown (skill) from broomva/skills: The content contract for a design doc — what must be IN it, as against make-spec which owns how it LOOKS. Synthesised from five primary sources read verbatim (Lynch/Refactoring English + his worked example, Design Docs at Google, the Rust RFC template, Nygard's original ADR post, Oxide RFD 1). The load-bearing rule is the cost of reversing a decision, not its importance: a choice fixable in an afternoon is review noise, a one-way door left unargued is the failure a design doc exists to prevent. .

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add broomva/skills/spec-contract@git:20260917.b709d10
Exact content
mdr add broomva/skills/spec-contract@sha256:10c2d626e953a846

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
