Runs one of the three lightweight prioritization presets (Eisenhower urgent-important 2x2, MoSCoW Must/Should/Could/Wont bucketing, or Pareto vital-few cut) caveat-first. It leads with the fact that this is a bundle of three different operations stapled by the word "prioritization", not one move, and each is weakly evidenced, then produces the one preset the user named with the discipline a canned template lacks. Use only when an Eisenhower matrix, MoSCoW list, or Pareto chart is asked for by…

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.

# Eisenhower / MoSCoW / Pareto

These are the three most widely taught lightweight prioritization presets: the Eisenhower urgent-important 2x2, MoSCoW four-bucket scope cutting, and the Pareto vital-few chart. They are famous, frequently requested, and weakly evidenced as decision tools. This skill runs whichever one was asked for honestly: it leads with the caveat, then produces that single preset with the discipline its bare template omits.

## Before you run this: the evidence caveat

These three sit at tier **P** (practitioner heuristic, no controlled effectiveness evidence). They are not one method but a bundle of three different operations stapled together by the word "prioritization", and that heterogeneity is the central fact: Eisenhower is categorical triage by two canned axes, MoSCoW is ordinal bucketing against one implicit scale, Pareto is a descriptive concentration observation. None has a controlled or comparative study measuring it against an alternative on decision quality. The strong study quoted to make Eisenhower look evidence-backed, Zhu, Yang and…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/thinking-framework-skills/think-eisenhower-moscow-pareto@sha256:d49ea1491c63efea

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
