Reference material for writing product, technical, and operational specifications (work-item priorities, requirement families, success criteria). Loaded on demand by `specify-feature`; not directly invokable.
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
# Spec Authoring Guide ## Spec Writing Process ### 1.

Use priority criteria: P1 = core value proposition / blocks everything else / security-critical; P2 = significant value but MVP works without / enhances P1 flows; P3 = nice-to-have / future foundation / polish. - "Independent Test": one sentence — what to demo/test. - Max **200 words** per story excluding acceptance scenarios. ### 4. Technical Specs (`spec_type: technical`) …

How to install
mdr add attilaszasz/sdd-pilot/spec-authoring@sha256:c0ecc3ed5478a11eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260811.ebf539e, 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.
