codebase-design SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 14 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

codebase-design from suntianc/paseo-matt-workloop is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add suntianc/paseo-matt-workloop/codebase-design@git:20261026.b888736

Pins git:20261026.b888736 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Shared vocabulary for designing deep modules. Use when the user wants to design or improve a module's interface, find deepening opportunities, decide where a seam goes, make code more testable or AI-navigable, or when another skill needs the deep-module vocabulary.

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

# Codebase Design

Design **deep modules**: a lot of behaviour behind a small interface, placed at a clean seam, testable through that interface. Use this language and these principles wherever code is being designed or restructured. The aim is leverage for callers, locality for maintainers, and testability for everyone.

## Glossary

Use these terms exactly: don't substitute "component," "service," "API," or "boundary." Consistent language is the whole point.

**Module**: anything with an interface and an implementation. Deliberately scale-agnostic: a function, class, package, or tier-spanning slice. _Avoid_: unit, component, service.

**Interface**: everything a caller must know to use the module correctly: the type signature, but also invariants, ordering constraints, error modes, required configuration, and performance characteristics. _Avoid_: API, signature (too narrow, they refer only to the type-level surface).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add suntianc/paseo-matt-workloop/codebase-design@sha256:2c20617f87ec8af6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.b888736, 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.
