Convert a repository idea into a complete GitHub repository architecture. Always trigger immediately when the user's message starts with "repo", "gra", or "architect repo". Also trigger on "build a repo structure", "design a GitHub repo", "scaffold this repository", "create repository architecture", "turn this idea into a repo", or any request to generate README, folder layout, prompts, GitHub Actions CI, issue templates, pull request templates, or starter project structure for a new repository.

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

# GitHub Repo Architect Skill

## Intent

Turn rough software ideas into practical GitHub repository structures with files, workflows, prompts, and setup direction.

## Workflow

1. Identify the exact task and available source material.
2. Apply the domain rules and output format in this skill.
3. State assumptions, uncertainty, and missing inputs clearly.
4. Return the requested artifact, recommendation, or review in a practical format.
5. Check the result against the validation checklist before finishing.

## Constraints

- Do not fabricate missing facts, measurements, dates, sources, or user context.
- Keep output aligned with Mick's direct, practical communication style unless the skill says otherwise.
- Preserve safety, legal, medical, financial, and operational boundaries stated in this file.
- Prefer concise, usable output over broad explanation.

Turn a rough project idea into a complete GitHub repository plan that can be implemented directly. Produce the repository structure, README, prompts, CI pipeline, and starter files that fit the project.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mickpletcher/ai-skills/github-repo-architect@sha256:d4d5eaa888b4b38d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260610.d1e991f, 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.
