Design AI agent architectures through requirements discovery, or audit and diagnose architectural flaws in existing agents. Architecture only; excludes implementation and general code review.
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
# AI Agent Architecture Help the user obtain a justified architecture for their task or an evidence-based audit of an existing agent. Deliver architectural decisions and ways to verify them, without implementing the agent. By default, completed work includes a PDF report and a visualization of the results. An “ideal architecture” fits the requirements, cost of failure, and team resources; it does not maximize the number of components. ## Choose a route | Request | Route | Read | |---|---|---| | New agent, requirements are not yet clear | Design: working cases → early design → requirements and decision coverage → delivery | [design.md](references/design.md), [architecture-contract.md](references/architecture-contract.md) | | Architecture from an existing specification | Design: fill in what is known and clarify only gaps | The same files; do not restart the interview | | Review an agent already written | Audit: reconstruct actual paths → verify → deliver findings | [audit.md](references/audit.md), and [architecture-contract.md](references/architecture-contract.md) as criteria | …

How to install
mdr add github/awesome-copilot/agent-architecture@sha256:914b3d476f06017aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260920.9bf465b, 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.
