Compose the upgrade readiness brief on request — which upgrade readiness findings need the user's decision now, what else the week found, and where the full report is — from the Saturday review's record and the findings queue, in the brief's fixed shape. Never the readiness table, never a summary of the report, never "nothing needs a decision" while a critical row is queued or surfaced.
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
# upgrade-readiness-brief — The Week's Decisions, On Request
The Saturday job `upgrade-readiness-weekly-review` grades every cluster and registers each blocker
and risk on the findings queue; the job `upgrade-readiness-weekly-brief` composes the week's brief
from both under `/opt/data/profiles/platform/governance/upgrade_readiness_brief_sop.md`. This skill is that SOP's "On request"
route: a user asks for the brief, or for what needs their decision, or for this week's report, and
gets the same shape in chat. Read only. Register nothing, decide nothing, upgrade nothing.
## Steps
1. Read the review's copy:
- `cat /opt/data/upgrade-readiness/weekly/latest.json` — the summary: `generated_at`, `projects`,
`clusters` (reviewed, blocked, ready, unknown, unread), `counts`, `findings` (rows with `id`,
`severity`, `check`, `entry`, `project`, `cluster`, `namespace`, `object`, `title`, `action`,
`outcome`), `new_ids`, `suppressed_ids`, `no_longer_reported_ids`, `project_failures`,
`registration_errors`, `report_path`.
- `cat /opt/data/upgrade-readiness/weekly/latest.md` when a line needs more than the row says.

How to install
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/upgrade-readiness-brief@sha256:f2e2fc2eb6275d3bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.f9472a7, 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.
