Bounded spike: web research plus local study to a verdict.
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
# /spike — Mechanism-Derisking Investigation Prove — or disprove — that a specific mechanism is viable before a plan commits to it. Binary, same shape as `/dogfood`: converges to a viable/not-viable verdict, or switches gears — no open-ended "keep researching" path (that's `coordinator:research`). spike is the research door's verdict class (`coordinator/commands/research.md`). Siblings: `coordinator:research` is broad, non-binary, and runs no code on this machine. `coordinator:systematic-debugging` is backward-looking (why did one known thing break). `coordinator:dogfood` is fix-through on a thing already built. `coordinator:shape` is problem-shaping (what to build), not mechanism-proving (can we build it this way). **Announce at start:** "Running `/spike <mechanism>` — bounded derisking investigation. Binary outcome: viable or not-viable." ## Invoke Gating — Structural, Not Self-Classified One invocation surface, two entry paths — the gate is a structural signal, never a runtime self-classification: - **Research-door entry (default).** The PM says 'spike', or the EM sizes `research.value_class: spike`. The EM's sizing is the authority …

How to install
mdr add dbc-oduffy/coordinator-claude/spike@sha256:f91860a93241de89The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
