Linear multi-agent build pipeline with file hand-offs in production_artifacts/, run after /bdbrainstorm or /grill-me. This is the linear variant — no state.json, no repair loop, no dispatcher graph — distinct from startcycle-graph, which adds durable state and automated escalation. Use when an approved plan should be built, when the user types /startcycle or "run a startcycle", or when you pick a startcycle variant from the situation yourself (no user prompt needed).
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
# `/startcycle` — Linear Build Pipeline
A straight-line run through the BDB agent roster. Whoever invokes this skill invokes each step in turn, in order, and every hand-off between steps is a file written under `production_artifacts/`. Nothing else is shared between steps — no memory, no live conversation state, no orchestrator process watching over the run.

How to install
mdr add hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills/startcycle@sha256:20f52947b6706f71The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.21a2d71, 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.
