ftd SKILL.md skillA

ftd from ericrisco/rsc-harness is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

Use for ordinary authorised change — the default lane once the decisor has ruled out a question and not selected the chain. Keeps one feature document per feature in 02-DOCS holding intent, scope, checklist, evidence and next step, checks tasks off only against observed proof, and asks whether to branch before the work writes code. NOT the ten-phase chain (that is `sdd`), NOT the classification itself (that is the decisor in `suggest`), NOT a request for information, which writes nothing.

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

# FTD — Fast-Track Development

The lane ordinary work takes. Not a lighter methodology: the **same** discipline about evidence with
none of the coordination the ten-phase chain exists to buy. One document instead of five, written
because the work might be interrupted, not because somebody has to approve it first.

You are here because the decisor in `../suggest/SKILL.md` ruled that this turn authorises a change
and did not select `../sdd/SKILL.md`. If it is still a question, you are in the wrong place: go back
and answer it.

## Why this lane exists

The constitution's seventh principle has said it from the start: *«la fricción es proporcional al
riesgo. Silencio para lo trivial, ceremonia solo donde el fallo es caro. Un sistema que molesta en el
80% inofensivo acaba apagado, y apagado no protege el 20% que importa.»*

The harness spent a long time contradicting it — every request that sounded like building went
through ten phases. This lane is that principle finally implemented, not a new idea.

## The feature document

One per feature, in the workspace wiki under `02-DOCS/wiki/ftd/<slug>.md`. **Never inside the code

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ericrisco/rsc-harness/ftd@sha256:a26c53d3b9f0b79a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.93b3873, 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.
