Prepare a compact, executable plan for a substantial change with acceptance, file ownership, dependencies and expected observations. Use when several steps or collaborators need coordination; tiny clear edits can proceed directly.

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

# Planning changes

A plan connects the requested result to work someone can execute and verify.
Keep it proportional to uncertainty and coordination. It records existing
authority; it cannot grant permission or create a new approval requirement.

## Establish the boundary

1. Read the request and relevant project instructions. Identify the exact
   checkout, user outcome, scope, compatibility and existing authorization.
2. Inspect the relevant code and current diff. Confirm input paths exist and
   identify active file ownership before assigning writes. Record the base
   revision and dirty inputs that matter to this work.
3. Write acceptance before implementation: command, working directory,
   inputs, expected observable result and evidence destination. Name relevant
   broader checks and what they cannot establish.
4. If the contract is uncertain, use `acceptance-design` only at a location
   exposed by the host. Otherwise design a discriminating check inline.
   Correct an invalid contract explicitly, preserving the user's outcome.

## Make the smallest useful plan

For an underspecified feature, start from the existing product and the user's
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add grit-77/done-is-a-claim/planning-changes@sha256:7920969178919fa4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.a0f0c71, 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.
