requirement-convergence SKILL.md skillA

requirement-convergence from shinpr/codex-workflows is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add shinpr/codex-workflows/requirement-convergence@git:20261102.2a1d2f6

Pins git:20261102.2a1d2f6 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Converges future-state requirements around outcome, exclusions, and rough cost. Use when users ask 'do we need this?', 'how far should we go?', or request a feature or scope change.

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

# Requirement Convergence

## Purpose

Capable models can make an oversized or misdirected request technically coherent and implement it faithfully. Converge **what is worth building** before design decides how to build it.

Apply this skill to future-state Design Doc and implementation flows. Reverse-engineered/as-is documentation is outside its scope. Requirement Convergence decides what to build; design then decides the smallest sufficient way to build the converged scope.

## Convergence Record

| Field | Pass condition |
|-------|----------------|
| `outcome` | One observable result. Every buildable requirement serves it. |
| `requirements[]` | Every item is labeled `current-state`, `desired-future`, or `speculative`; buildable outcomes and explicit constraints trace to the user's request. Agent-selected means remain design choices. |
| `nonGoals[]` | The user decided each exclusion or explicitly stated there are none. |
| `cost` | A rough band with structural evidence and remaining unknowns. |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add shinpr/codex-workflows/requirement-convergence@sha256:0aac93dca0a0a77a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.2a1d2f6, 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.
