Consider project goals when changing library code.

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

# Library Goals Alignment

When editing library code in `packages/*`, read [GOALS.md](../../GOALS.md) and weigh changes against it. It is the source of truth for project priorities — do not rely on a summary of it.

- Evaluate design decisions (new APIs, abstractions, dependencies) against the goals before implementing.
- When goals conflict for a given change (e.g. bundle size vs. performance), resolve the trade-off using the priorities expressed in GOALS.md, and note the reasoning (in a PR, under its GOALS impact section).
- If a requested change works against the goals, say so and propose an alternative that stays aligned.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add reactive/data-client/.cursor/rules/library-goals.mdc@sha256:cde186aa5507ec2e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.e0cfa7e, 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.
