Build toward a chosen, ambitious final product in coherent levels — each one architecturally compatible with the destination, useful standalone, and carrying the invariants (security, persistence, authority boundaries) it will need later, never bolted on afterward. Use whenever planning or building a project meant to be kept, used, or maintained — including a hackathon project. Trigger on "let's scope this as an MVP", "build a quick prototype first…
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
# Destination-Driven Construction This is a stated methodology, not a universal claim about how software should be built — a different workflow than MVP-first iteration, adopted because the systems built this way are meant to be kept, used, and maintained, not discarded after a demo. Do not generalize it to other people's projects or present it as the objectively correct approach; apply it because it's the standing instruction for this author's work. The organizing idea: the target is the *ambitious final product*, known and named before construction starts — treated like a game with a final level. Reaching it is winning. What varies with time and constraint is not the target, but how many coherent levels toward it get built. The distinctive trait is not the leveling mechanism by itself — staged delivery and similar patterns also build in stages. It's that **every level is built with knowledge of, and architectural compatibility with, the destination**, and inherits the destination's load-bearing invariants from level 1, not as an add-on once the "real" version starts. > **When time runs out, stop at the highest coherent level reached. Do not …

How to install
mdr add annatchijova/skills/destination-driven-construction@sha256:7dc7598697ce77e7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.6a21e83, 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.
