Choose a stack that fits a project and check that it still fits. Use when the user wants to pick, review or audit their stack across frontend, backend and infrastructure (framework, hosting, database, auth, email, storage, payments, monitoring, analytics, search, realtime, jobs, CMS, flags, AI APIs, mobile subscriptions); asks what Vercel, Supabase, Firebase, Clerk, Stripe, OpenAI or any other service will cost at 1k, 10k or 50k users; worries about plan limits, free-tier caps, rate limits…

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

# Manifestack

Helps choose a stack that fits a project (budget, users, requirements, team experience) and keeps checking that it still fits: limits, bills, risks, requirement gaps, overlapping services and overbuilt infrastructure. There is no Manifestack server. Everything runs here, in this session.

`<skill-dir>` below is the folder that contains this file. Run scripts as `node <skill-dir>/scripts/<name>.mjs …` from the user's repository root. They need Node.js 22+, no packages, no network.

## 1. Pick the mode

1. If the user named a mode (`/manifestack init "B2B dashboard, EU users"`, `/manifestack audit`, `/manifestack compare neon supabase`), use it.
2. If the user names two or three vendors for the same job and asks which one to use ("Neon or Supabase?", "Resend vs Postmark at 200k emails") → **compare**. When both are already in the project ("we have Clerk and Supabase Auth, which should stay?"), that is an `Overlap` → **audit**; for two services of one cloud, which never show as an Overlap, use **compare**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add manifestack/manifestack/manifestack@sha256:099d053ad044c4ed

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.5.1, 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.
