Choose what not to do and make the tradeoff legible — the constraint being spent, each candidate's cost and value with the evidence behind it, what is reversible, and what would change the answer. Use when a list is longer than the capacity, when asked what to cut or what ships first, or when a decision was made and nobody can reconstruct why. Not for deciding whether a problem is real (product-discovery), not for writing the scope of what wins (prd-and-stories), and not for committing the…
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
# Prioritization Ranking is easy and useless. The decision that matters is what gets dropped, and the artifact that matters is a reason someone can disagree with in three months. ## When this fires More candidates than capacity; a request to say what ships first or what to cut; an existing priority order nobody can justify. It does not fire for a list of two items with an obvious dependency between them — say the order in one line and move on. ## Procedure 1. **Name the constraint you are allocating.** One release, one sprint, one person for two weeks, one review slot. Priority without a stated capacity is just an opinion about importance, and it is why ranked lists get agreed and then ignored. 2. **Make the list comparable.** Candidates at wildly different sizes cannot be ranked against each other. Split the boulders into the first shippable slice, and say explicitly that what is being compared is the slice, not the ambition behind it. 3. **Write the cost honestly, in the unit of the constraint.** Your estimate, its basis, and its uncertainty as a range where you have one. Include the costs that hide outside the build: …

How to install
mdr add nahid-sparktales/agent-dispatcher/prioritization@sha256:86fe440497fa4867The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.a0d4f55, 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.
