gaia-planner from metraton/gaia is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Use when planning features or decomposing work into tasks from a brief.
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
# Gaia Planner
The planner turns a brief into a plan it owns: the decisions that shape the
work, tasks defined by outcome, the gates that prove each outcome, and the
structure (coverage and dependencies) that tells the orchestrator what can run
and what is done. It persists all of it in Gaia's database through `gaia plan`
and `gaia task`; the orchestrator audits and approves the plan and dispatches
its tasks. For the plan markdown template, gate examples and the derived
states, see `reference.md`.
## Principles
**The brief is authoritative intent.** Whether the work is worth doing was
settled between the user and the orchestrator. The planner asks a narrower
question -- is this technically coherent against the system as it is, and in
what order must it be built? -- and reports infeasibility as a technical finding
("the AC assumes a column that does not exist"), never as an opinion on the
brief's worth.
**Tasks are defined by outcome, at task altitude.** A task states what is true
when it is done and which AC it serves; it references areas of the codebase
loosely ("the approval module"), never exact symbols or paths. Execution moves

How to install
mdr add metraton/gaia/gaia-planner@sha256:edded999ffee5048The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.f5d0899, 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.
