Restate a spec, a task, a diff, or the current topic visually as a compact markdown digest. Use when asked to 'show me', 'explain this visually', 'restate that', 'digest the plan', 'walk me through the spec', 'walk me through the tasks', 'walk me through the diff', or when the output is too much text and a shape would land faster. Triggers on /flow-next:visual with an optional spec id, task id, git range, or free-form topic.

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

# Visual — human-first markdown digest

Restate one thing visually, in compact markdown, on one screen. The structure IS the output: the reader scans the shape, spots the wrong thing, and drills into only that file instead of reading everything to find out whether anything is wrong.

**Output contract:** compact markdown visuals rendered in chat — fenced text/diff/code blocks and tiny tables. Never images, never HTML files, never a written artifact. Everything here renders natively in the terminal, in chat, and on every forge: ```diff fences color for free, ```text is monospace everywhere, ```ts gets highlighting for free. There is no rendering machinery — the shapes below are the whole product.

**Read-only.** This skill reads state and responds. It never writes files, never mutates flow state, never commits, never runs a workflow. (If the user asks to save a digest, that is an ordinary Write with ordinary consent — not a mode of this skill.)

## Preamble

flowctl is bundled with the plugin (not on PATH). Define once; subsequent blocks use `$FLOWCTL`:

```bash
FLOWCTL="${DROID_PLUGIN_ROOT:-${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}}/scripts/flowctl"
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gmickel/flow-next/flow-next-visual@sha256:ed43c3ed82c65efb

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.5545385, 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.
