Architecture review through the Contracts lenses: interfaces, injection, wiring. For a change in this area, or as one leg of arch-review-full.
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
# arch-review-contracts Judge the code from one perspective only: the lenses in `../../lenses/contracts.md`. Other perspectives have their own skills; do not borrow their rules, and do not flag anything a lens in this file does not name. The guideline itself is at `../../architecture.md` when a lens needs its source read in full. A path that starts with `../` is read from this skill's folder as `realpath` resolves it. If either file is missing, stop and say the installation is incomplete. This pass covers Interfaces, Separation of Layers, The Business Layer, The Network Layer (Service Interfaces and Impls, Direction of Calls), Cross-Cutting Conventions (The App Container): interfaces, injection, wiring. ## Input The arguments name what to review. Read them as the first of these that matches: 1. Empty: the current branch's change. The default branch is `origin/HEAD` when set, else `main`, else `master`. The scope is every file changed since the merge base of `HEAD` and the default branch (`git diff --name-only <base>`, committed and uncommitted alike), plus every untracked file git does not ignore …

How to install
mdr add baristaze/swe_guidelines/arch-review-contracts@sha256:3d5d7d157fbe4cb8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.f17a474, 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.
