Enforces Law 4 (Verify Before Reporting) of the 7 Laws of AI Agent Discipline. Pre-dispatch invariant: reconcile DB-vs-disk-vs-memory state before any unit runs, so a stale flag, missing artifact, or out-of-sync row never re-dispatches a unit that already completed or never started.
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
# State Reconciliation Skill A pre-dispatch invariant. Before the verification ladder runs (or any auto-loop unit dispatches), reconcile the three state sources — DB / disk / in-memory — and surface any divergence as a blocker, not a silent re-dispatch. ## When to Use - Before Phase 1 of `verification-loop` if the project tracks runtime state outside source control (sqlite, KV, redis, `completed-units.json`, milestone JSON, lockfiles). - Before any auto-loop iteration in long-running sessions. - After a crash, pause/resume, or context compaction — the in-memory loop state is gone but DB and disk persist. - When a flag like `is_sketch`, `in_progress`, or a stale lock keeps re-firing the same unit. ## Why This Skill Exists GSD-2's [CONTEXT.md](https://github.com/gsd-build/gsd-2/blob/main/CONTEXT.md) names "State Reconciliation" as one of four runtime invariant modules. Common failure modes it catches: - **Stale flags re-dispatch completed units** — `is_sketch`, stale worker rows, stale sequence/dependency rows that no one cleared. - **Disk artifacts present, DB status lags** — `PROJECT.md` milestone registration, completion timestamps, roadmap divergence. …

How to install
mdr add naimkatiman/continuous-improvement/state-reconciliation@sha256:e3430d5ed3f61d36The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260517.966ce51, 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.
