g-align from onlygian/g-forge is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add onlygian/g-forge/g-align@git:20260831.81b585b

Pins git:20260831.81b585b in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Brief-deviation check. Compares the project's actual trajectory (ROADMAP progress, recent commits, the observer journal) against the original g-docs/project_brief.md — goals, non-goals, MVP, tech decisions — and reports whether the work is still serving the brief. Advisory, never blocks. Auto-runs at milestone close; nudged periodically between milestones.

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

**Announce:** "Using g-align to check progress against the brief."

Roadmaps drift. A project that ships milestone after milestone can still walk away from the thing it set out to build — scope creeps in sideways, original goals get quietly deferred, the stack diverges from what was decided. Nobody notices because every individual milestone looked reasonable. This skill is the periodic re-grounding: it holds the **current trajectory** against the **original brief** and tells the developer, honestly, where they've drifted.

It is **advisory**. It never blocks a commit, a plan, or a milestone. Its only output is a report and a verdict.

## Step 1 — Load the brief (the anchor)

Read `g-docs/project_brief.md`. Extract:
- **What this builds** — the one-paragraph thesis.
- **Goals** — the measurable goals list.
- **Non-goals** — what was explicitly declared out of scope.
- **MVP** — the MVP feature set and done condition.
- **Roadmap** — the brief's original milestone table (`Milestone | Features | Rationale`).
- **Tech decisions** — the component → choice table.
- **Success metrics**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add onlygian/g-forge/g-align@sha256:2a50b30048d9d7ca

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260831.81b585b, 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.
