Run the foundational review chain on a project BEFORE an irreversible decision (version freeze, format/schema/spec tag, public API or repo flip, major re-scope, or a 'should we keep building this' moment). Verdict-led review → design spec → cold-executable plan → composed /prospect → paste-ready executor kickoff. Optional --extend runs the system-design extension loop. REQUIRES an irreversible-decision anchor — no decision named → redirect to /prospect (plan pre-mortem) or /readiness-audit…
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
# /foundational-review — "Is this the right thing, built the right way?" Run a repeatable, model-agnostic review of a project at the FOUNDATIONS — problem–solution fit, architecture soundness, product coherence — and convert the findings into a prospect-hardened, cold-executable plan with owner routing. This is the productized form of the foundational review chain (the canonical process doc this skill reads at Step 1). This skill is **orchestration + artifact templates only**. The substance — the A–F review questions, the operating rules, the failure-mode library, the pairing contract — lives in the canonical process doc, which Step 1 reads in full. Do not reproduce that doc's content from memory; read it live every run so the chain evolves in one place. **What this is NOT** (the process doc opens with this — internalize it): - **Not a code review** — code review asks "are these changes correct?" on a diff. This asks "should this shape exist?" on a decision. …

How to install
mdr add mikeprasad/aria-knowledge/foundational-review@sha256:22e4e0fd73d01dddThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.37343fb, 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.
