Evaluate whether goals, outcomes, requirements, tasks, acceptance evidence, and diffs are aligned, measurable, and within scope. Use before execution or when checking a proposed change against its intended result.
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
# Goal Alignment Use this skill to check whether work serves its stated goal. It covers outcome traceability, measurable success criteria, scope limits, evidence gaps, and the final alignment verdict. Do not invent baselines, targets, decisions, or evidence. ## Traceability model Build this chain with stable identifiers: `Goal -> Outcome -> Key Result -> Requirement -> Task -> Acceptance evidence -> Diff` - **Goal**: the intended change or problem, written in observable terms. - **Outcome** (`O1`): who benefits and what changes. - **Key Result** (`KR1`): measurable target, baseline, deadline, and evidence source. - **Requirement** (`REQ1`): necessary behavior, constraint, or non-negotiable. - **Task** (`TASK1`): concrete work that satisfies a requirement. - **Acceptance evidence** (`AE1`): a test, measurement, review artifact, or user confirmation. - **Diff** (`D1`): delivered or proposed change mapped to the task. Mark missing values as `unknown`. Never turn assumptions into facts. ## Workflow 1. **Normalize the goal.** Keep the user's intent. State the observable outcome without adding scope. …

How to install
mdr add andrewbrown-usda/aigb-skills-usda/goal-alignment@sha256:5ecffbfb86b37e62The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
