Turn a rough idea into a scoped, labeled GitHub issue ready for the delivery pipeline. Use when the owner wants to capture a todo, feature, or bug as a real backlog item with scope, acceptance criteria, and a priority. Refines the idea over as many rounds as it takes — each round a fresh `product-manager` that has read the code, whose questions are asked one per message, each with a stated recommended default — and ends the loop only when every acceptance criterion is testable as written.…
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
# groom — rough idea → scoped GitHub issue
You are the PM/lead in the main session. Turn the owner's rough idea into one well-scoped
GitHub issue, labeled and ready for `/spec-flow:activate`. This is interactive: you draft, the owner
refines. Stay in the foreground — no worktrees, no implementation.
## Steps
1. **Read the idea — ask only what round 1 can't start without.** Two things, at most:
- **What is this?** Only if the description is genuinely unreadable as a unit of work. A rough,
under-specified idea is the normal input here, not a problem to solve before proceeding.
- **Is this one piece of work or several?** A bundle of two ideas becomes two issues, and the
refinement loop can't sharpen both at once.
Ask them one per message, in the format in **Presenting to the owner** in `docs/workflow.md`,
each with your own recommended answer stated alongside it — a default they can accept in one
word ("this reads like two issues to me: X, and Y for later — split it?").
**Write whatever the owner answers into the refinement record before you spawn round 1** (step 4

How to install
mdr add rustyrazorblade/skills/groom@sha256:d8d2bfe19f6ba6efThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.9c7cdf8, 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.
