Score a staged commit's fan-out and architectural-boundary crossings just before committing: dependents left unfollowed, hook-to-runtime import direction, paths outside the plan's editable fence, paired artifacts left behind, and the green retests the commit-time closure refusal will demand, with a recorded decision as the named escape hatch. Use before committing a multi-module edit. Not for answering who-calls questions ahead of an edit, and not for authorizing a push or release.

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

# Godmode Impact Gate

## Outcome

Before `git commit`, the staged edit's reach is scored against the
project's own graph and boundaries - how many dependents it leaves
unfollowed, whether it crosses the hooks/runtime import boundary, whether it
steps outside the declared fence or leaves a paired artifact behind - and
every finding is either fixed or accepted on the record through one named
escape hatch. The gate is advisory; the one refusal that is not (the
commit-time closure check) is satisfied by running the retests, never
waived.

## Use

- A multi-module edit is staged and about to be committed.
- A commit touches `hooks/` or `scripts/godmode_runtime/` and the import direction between them must hold.
- A plan declared an editable fence and the staged set may have stepped outside it.
- A crossing is intentional and should be accepted on the record rather than silently.

## Do Not Use

- Finding who calls or imports a module before planning an edit to it - that is `godmode-codegraph`.
- Previewing or authorizing a force push, tag, or release - that is `godmode-governance`.
- Diagnosing why a retest went red after an edit - that is `godmode-investigation`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aiimagined/godmode/godmode-impact-gate@sha256:4137344df64e3d26

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.51b2535, 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.
