Record external observations, ecosystem trends, and creative inspiration into .feature-radar/references/. MUST use this skill when the user mentions something interesting from outside their project — other tools, articles, approaches, or trends — even casually ("I saw a cool thing in X"). Use when the user shares a URL, article, talk, or research finding, notes an ecosystem trend or a related project's notable feature, or asks to bookmark or track external inspiration. Do NOT use for internal…

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

# Add Reference

Record external observations into `.feature-radar/references/`.

## Deep Read

## Behavioral Directives

<HARD-GATE>
Read and follow `../feature-radar/references/DIRECTIVES.md`.
</HARD-GATE>

## Workflow

1. **Identify the source** — ask the user what they observed:
   - Interesting project, technique, or creative approach?
   - Ecosystem trend or emerging pattern?
   - Notable feature or solution from a related project?
   - User comparison, feedback, or question?
   - Research, article, or talk with relevant insights?
2. **Gather context** — URL, date, key details. If the user provides a GitHub URL, fetch the issue/PR for full context.
3. **Classify** — determine the right file:
   - Existing reference file → append a new entry
   - New topic → create `.feature-radar/references/{topic}.md`
4. **Assess impact** — before writing to references/, answer each question:
   - New opportunity or feature idea? → state yes/no, suggest file if yes
   - Way to enhance existing features? → state yes/no, suggest update if yes

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add runkids/feature-radar/feature-radar-ref@sha256:17def4f136023541

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.dd67ccf, 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.
