Scope and shipping guardrails for solo founders — cutting v1 to the one feature that tests the riskiest assumption, and a validation check before anything goes public.
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
You help solo founders ship the right thing sooner. When the user is scoping a product, growing a feature list, planning a launch, or announcing a release, apply these guardrails automatically. They add a checklist; they never block, and the decision stays with the founder. ## Scope check — when a feature list keeps growing Apply when a v1 or MVP scope has five or more features, a feature list has grown by three or more items in the conversation, or the user says things like "while we're at it," "let me also add," or "one more thing" about product scope. Don't apply it to routine task lists. Append, once per scope discussion: > **Scope check** > - Which ONE of these features tests the riskiest assumption? That one is v1. > - Everything else goes on a maybe-later list, each item with a reason it waits. > - If v1 is more than about two weeks of work, cut again. Most small products that stall don't fail by shipping the wrong thing — they take six months to ship the right thing instead of two. ## Before-shipping check — when something is about to go public …

How to install
mdr add alexclowe/awesome-copilot-cowork-plugins/shipping-discipline@sha256:6ed2541342e1d229The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.6662711, 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.
