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

# AGENTS.md - AI Software Architect Framework

> **For Claude Code Users**: This file contains cross-platform instructions. For Claude-specific features including Skills and MCP integration, see [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md).

## Project Overview

AI Software Architect is a markdown-based framework for implementing rigorous software architecture practices with AI assistant collaboration. The framework provides structured architecture documentation, multi-perspective reviews, and architectural decision tracking for any project.

**Technology Stack:**
- Markdown-based documentation framework
- Node.js MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for tool integration
- Claude Skills for reusable architecture operations
- YAML configuration files
- Git for version control

## Framework Development Setup

This repository contains the AI Software Architect framework itself. If you're contributing to or customizing the framework:

### Repository Structure

```
.architecture/          # Framework's own architecture documentation
├── decisions/          # ADRs for framework design decisions
├── reviews/           # Architecture reviews of framework features
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codenamev/ai-software-architect/AGENTS.md@sha256:cf513be806b54aba

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.bc0defd, 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.
