Researches which building codes, accessibility standards and authority requirements (health department, fire marshal, state agency) apply to a scope or spec section, and which the project documents miss. Use for 'what codes apply', 'code check', 'ADA requirements', 'egress', 'health department'. Not for reading what the drawings or specs say (construction-guide).

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

# Code Researcher — Scope-Specific Gap Analysis

## What This Skill Does

An engineer managing one or more scopes asks: *"Are there any code requirements
for this scope that I'm missing?"*

This skill answers that question in three passes:

**Pass 1 — What the scope already addresses**
Read the actual project documents — spec sections, drawings, schedules — and
extract every code citation, standard reference, and requirement already
incorporated by the design team.

**Pass 2 — What should apply**
Research all codes and standards that apply to this type of work in this
jurisdiction, regardless of what the project documents say.

**Pass 3 — The gap**
Diff Pass 1 against Pass 2. Present only what's in Pass 2 but absent from
Pass 1, with confidence levels and specific source citations from both the
code and the project documents.

**This is a gap finder, not a code summary.** If the spec already addresses a
requirement correctly, it does not appear in the output. The engineer's time is
spent only on things that may actually be missing.

## Framing Rule (Non-Negotiable)

Every finding is framed as:
> *"Code [X] requires [Y]. The project documents [address this at / do not
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dleerdefi/claude-code-construction/code-researcher@sha256:e556bda304db2e0e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.6a59640, 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.
