planning SKILL.md skillA
planning from iliaal/ai-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add iliaal/ai-skills/planning@git:20261019.5dcf8a9Pins git:20261019.5dcf8a9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Software implementation planning with optional file-based persistence. Use when asked to plan, when unresolved architecture or scope decisions need a durable record, or when multi-phase implementation needs recovery state. For the full research-and-issue workflow, use the ia-plan command (/ia-plan in Claude Code).
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 Produce the smallest plan that reduces implementation risk and preserves state costly to reconstruct. User requirements and verified facts govern the plan; a reference implementation supplies evidence about behavior, not independent authority to change scope. ## Procedure 1. Define the concrete outcome, evidence, binary or quantitative success threshold, scope boundaries, and stop conditions. If the request already names an artifact and success signal, use them. Otherwise repair activity-only goals before planning. 2. Separate the objective from the proposed mechanism: would the goal remain valid if the implementation changed? Ensure a colleague can understand the objective alone and verify it without knowing component internals. 3. Choose a full durable plan for interdependent phases, recovery needs, or work crossing context limits; an inline list for clear work fitting one session; direct implementation for clear scope and acceptance criteria. File and tool-call counts are signals, not triggers. Inspect hidden decisions such as cache TTL, invalidation, and key shape before treating work as simple. …

How to install
mdr add iliaal/ai-skills/planning@sha256:bc904bda4632b649The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.5dcf8a9, 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.
