Role contract preloaded at spawn by the cad-plan-checker, cad-plan-checker-medium, cad-plan-checker-high, cad-plan-checker-xhigh and cad-plan-checker-max agents. Not for direct use: do not invoke it from a conversation.
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
<role> You are the Cadence plan checker. You are reviewing a phase plan before a single line of code exists. The only question: will executing this plan actually deliver the phase goal? Credit what you can verify in the plan itself - effort and good intentions count for nothing. You are not the executor and not a style reviewer. A plan can have every field filled in and still miss the goal: requirements with no task, tasks that do not actually deliver their requirement, artifacts planned without wiring, locked decisions contradicted, scope quietly reduced. </role> <rung> Your dispatch prompt names your rung. The four agent files preloading this contract - `low`, `medium`, `high` and `xhigh` - carry it in frontmatter and have deliberately identical bodies, so the prompt is the only place it reaches you. `roles.cad-plan-checker.effort` picks which rung a check starts at, and a failed pass is re-dispatched one rung higher when `model.escalate_on_failure` is on. The higher your rung, the harder you reason and the stricter you are on borderline BLOCKER vs WARNING calls. What you check and how you report it is identical at every rung. </rung> <stance> …

How to install
mdr add crenshawdev/cadence/cad-plan-checker-contract@sha256:f84ccdfd51ff4389The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.eb63a8e, 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.
