Ramps implementation ambition a notch only after the prior increment is understood. Use when building a feature you must understand, not just ship.
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.

This skill ramps the other axis: the ambition of the next increment. They are the two directions of one move, the graduated practice that turned novices into experts long before agents existed. Not "ban the tool," but "couple the next challenge to demonstrated competence on the last one." The learning sciences give the move a number. Wilson et al. (2019, *Nature Communications* 10:4646) derive the optimal training point for a learner at roughly 85% success: hard enough to learn from, not so hard that the signal is noise. The same band is what Vygotsky's zone of proximal development, Ericsson's edge of ability, and Csikszentmihalyi's flow channel all gesture at. Bloom's mastery learning (advance a unit at >=90% on a fresh check), Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (advance at p(mastery) >= 0.95), and competence-based curriculum learning (Platanios et al. 2019, …

How to install
mdr add athola/claude-night-market/graduated-implementation@sha256:2cb663e96371f366The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.56177a0, 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.
