Decomposes a PRD, issue, or spec into a copy-pasteable single `/goal until ..., or stop after N turns` line. Use when running /goal against a spec, to reduce acceptance criteria to AND-joined boolean assertions.

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

# prd-to-goal — PRD → /goal Decomposition

Converts a PRD / issue / spec into a single copy-pasteable `/goal` line. The hard part of `/goal` is not running it — it is writing an `until` clause that is *convergent* (terminates), *falsifiable* (testable boolean), and *observable* (the agent can actually check it without subjective judgement). This skill makes that decomposition reproducible.

## 1. When to use

**Use it when:**
- You have a written PRD, GitHub issue, or spec and want to run `/goal` against it.
- Past `/goal` runs drifted, looped, or burned tokens because the `until` clause was vague (`until tests pass`, `until done`, `until design is good`).
- You need to justify the abort budget — turns, tokens, no-progress threshold.

**Skip it when:**
- One-shot bug fix where the failing test *is* the acceptance criterion. Just run `/goal until pnpm test -- auth.spec.ts passes`.
- No written PRD exists. Run `write-prd` first — vibes do not decompose.
- The work is destructive or irreversible (DB migrations, mass file deletes). `/goal` retries; you do not want retries on `DROP TABLE`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yonatangross/orchestkit/prd-to-goal@sha256:37b13156d4388a6f

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.
