sdlc-graph-engineering-install SKILL.md skillA

sdlc-graph-engineering-install from ronmizrahi/ai-sdlc-graph is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add ronmizrahi/ai-sdlc-graph/sdlc-graph-engineering-install@git:20260920.2a23c63

Pins git:20260920.2a23c63 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Install graph engineering into a project: take an existing process — skills, a runbook, a README, a CI pipeline, or something the user can only describe out loud — and scaffold it into a working guarded graph with typed nodes, total exit guards, bounded retry loops, a durable run-state file, and a ledger recording every step that could not run. Writes the orchestrator skill and its model files into the target project, then proves the result sound by dry-tracing it before handing it over. Use…

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

# Install Graph Engineering

## Goal

**Graph engineering, installed into a project that does not have it.** One existing process, turned
into a model a machine can actually execute: **nodes** with typed contracts,
**edges** with total guards, **bounded** cycles, a **run-state file** that survives a crash, and a
**ledger** of every step that could not run. Plus the orchestrator skill that walks it.

**The output is four files, written into their project, and a proof.** Not a diagram — diagrams are
the easy part. The deliverable is something they can run.

## Use When

- A prose process has grown enough conditionals that nobody can hold it in their head.
- An agent loses its place partway through a long task and restarts from guesswork.
- A retry loop has no limit, or a step reports success it did not earn.
- Someone wants a process auditable — "which steps actually ran, and which were skipped?"

## Do Not Use When

- **The process is genuinely linear** with no branching, no retries, and no human stops. A checklist
  is the right tool; a graph is overhead.
- **The steps are one action each.** A graph earns its cost across steps that can fail, retry, or be
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ronmizrahi/ai-sdlc-graph/sdlc-graph-engineering-install@sha256:84951b2071e33a33

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260920.2a23c63, 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.
