plan-a-phased-build from testdouble/han is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add testdouble/han/plan-a-phased-build@git:20260909.dde8d4a

Pins git:20260909.dde8d4a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Splits a body of context into a sequence of vertical-slice build phases where each phase is independently demonstrable to a real user and each builds on the previous. Use when the user wants to plan, sequence, phase, slice, break down, or order the build of a feature, capability, system, or initiative, and produces a plain-language phased build outline. Does not produce implementation detail — use plan-implementation. Does not specify behavior that has not been decided — use plan-a-feature.…

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

## Project Context

- CLAUDE.md: !`find . -maxdepth 1 -name "CLAUDE.md" -type f`
- project-discovery.md: !`find . -maxdepth 3 -name "project-discovery.md" -type f`
- personal config directory: !`bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/han-config-dir.sh" 2>/dev/null || echo "$HOME/.claude"`
- project .han/config.md: !`cat .han/config.md 2>/dev/null || echo ""`

As your first action, use the Read tool on `.han/config.md` inside the `personal config directory` path above. A read
that returns no file is no personal configuration: continue silently. When that file or the `project .han/config.md`
probe supplies content, apply it per [config-rule.md](../../references/config-rule.md), which governs precedence
between the two files, relative-path resolution, and what to do with a file that reads but cannot be used.

## Operating Principles

- **Plain language is the default surface.** The build-phase outline never contains file paths, line numbers, function
  or class names, library mechanics, or language primitives. It uses product-level subsystem names ("the events
  processing system", "the database"), user-facing UI vocabulary (popover, modal, toast), behavioral verbs (publishes,

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add testdouble/han/plan-a-phased-build@sha256:f2bf1992239db53d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.dde8d4a, 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.
