Run quarterly planning with honest capacity, negotiated cross-team dependencies, and an explicit cut line that names what will not get done. Use when a team commits to a quarter of work and needs the plan to survive contact with reality.
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
# Quarterly planning Quarterly planning turns ambition into a set of commitments a team can actually keep. It fails in a predictable way: capacity is counted as if everyone codes five days a week, dependencies are assumed rather than agreed, and every proposed item is marked "must" so nothing is ever cut until it slips. A real plan is honest about how much fits and explicit about what does not. ## Method 1. **Start capacity from real available days, not headcount.** Take the calendar, subtract holidays, planned leave, on-call rotations, interviews, and a standing tax for support and keeping the lights on. A six-person team rarely has six people of new work; plan against the number that remains after the known drains. 2. **Size work in ranges and discount your optimism.** Estimate each item as a band, not a point, and apply a haircut to the total because teams systematically underestimate. If last quarter you planned twelve items and finished eight, plan eight this time. History beats hope. 3. **Negotiate every cross-team dependency in writing, both directions.** For each thing you need from another team, get their owner to agree to the scope …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/quarterly-planning@sha256:eb991c2679e79df9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.fac4544, 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.
