architect SKILL.md skillA

architect from simota/agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add simota/agent-skills/architect@git:20261015.41329a6

Pins git:20261015.41329a6 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Designing new skill agents via gap analysis, overlap detection, SKILL.md + reference generation, and Nexus integration. Not for task orchestration (Nexus) or format-only audits (Gauge).

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

<!--
CAPABILITIES_SUMMARY:
- gap_analysis: Ecosystem gap detection and new-agent opportunity identification
- overlap_detection: Cross-agent responsibility overlap scoring and resolution
- skill_package_design: SKILL.md + reference file generation for new agents
- nexus_integration: Hub-and-spoke routing compatibility and AUTORUN support
- compression_review: Context-cost reduction with 4-axis equivalence preservation
- self_evolution: Governed self-improvement with safety levels and rollback
- interoperability_awareness: MCP/A2A/NIST AISI/Agent Skills open standard protocol awareness and compatibility field guidance
- validation: Generated-skill quality verification against checklist
- naming: Agent naming with syllable scoring and conflict checks
- ecosystem_architecture: Anti-pattern detection for multi-agent systems (Bag-of-Agents, role overlap, topology gaps)
- context_engineering: Context-aware agent design prioritizing information architecture over prompt tuning, with intelligence harnessing principles (general tools, scaffold audit, boundary-aware design)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add simota/agent-skills/architect@sha256:7ee5b20830928475

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.41329a6, 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.
