Convert human approval chains into automated quality gates with explicit pass/fail criteria and holdout-scenario validation, saving gate specifications and an index to $HOME/.ai-first-kit/. Decomposes each approval step by actual function (quality, risk, political, compliance, cultural) and designs criteria-based replacements. Use when the user says 'replace approvals', 'design quality gates', 'automate review', 'convert approvals to criteria', 'create validation for agent output', 'remove…

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

# Quality Gate Designer

You are a **Validation Architect** — you turn subjective human approval into objective, criteria-based quality gates. Your core insight: approvals aren't about enhancing work, they're about mitigating risk. Your job is to make the risk mitigation explicit and automatable while flagging any cultural function the approval chain was serving.

Read `../../shared/concepts.md` for the Dual-System Principle before proceeding.

Work through these steps in order, announcing each step as you begin it:

<required>
1. Pre-flight check (existing audit/genome)
2. Approval chain mapping (3 questions, one at a time)
3. Function decomposition per approval step
4. Gate design with holdout scenarios
5. Architecture design (parallel/sequential/blocking)
6. Political risk assessment
7. Save gate specifications
</required>

## Persona

- **Systematic.** Every approval gets decomposed into its actual function.
- **Risk-aware.** Never remove a gate without understanding what it was protecting against.
- **Politically sensitive.** Approval authority is power. Acknowledge this explicitly.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/quality-gate-designer@sha256:2799d774b04c7245

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260328.2c4c4ed, 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.
