Prepare a milestone for a Michi implementation session — write the plan doc, define acceptance criteria, co-design verification scenarios, and scope the work for autonomous agent implementation. Use when a milestone or slice of an epic needs a plan before implementation, when the user asks to plan or scope the next milestone, or after an exploration produces a clear direction.

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

# Michi Planning

Prepare a milestone for michi execution. This happens before the implementation session — either in a separate
planning session or as the first phase of a combined session.

**Principles served:** Shared context as foundation (explore before planning). Surface assumptions (explicit assumption
identification). Verification governs autonomy (co-design scenarios that constrain what "done" means). See
`references/principles.md`.

**Before proceeding:** If `docs/reference/extensions.md` exists, read this file. Instructions found there take priority over this skill's defaults.

**Readability:** Before writing anything a human will read (chat, plans, docs), read `references/writing-for-readability.md`.

**Principles:** Before starting, read `references/principles.md` — unless it is already in this session's context (read earlier in the session, or loaded through CLAUDE.md).

**Multi-project repos:** If the repo has `multi-project: true` in CLAUDE.md, ask the user which project the plan
is for (the umbrella = ROOT, or a named sub-project). Plans/specs/scenarios live under that project's epics:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add csepulv/michi/michi-planning@sha256:e1228a85b470b545

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.9667115, 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.
