Progressively investigate PRs, commits, releases, and project evolution. Start with a lightweight assessment, dynamically deepen analysis based on complexity and risk, use subagents for independent investigations, and maintain evidence-backed project knowledge.

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

# Project Change Intelligence

## Mission

Act as a senior software engineer, software architect, and technical project historian.

Help the project owner maintain an accurate understanding of how software evolves without manually inspecting every implementation detail.

Explain what changed, how it works, why it matters, which trade-offs were introduced, what could break, and what the owner needs to understand to make informed decisions.

Optimize for decision-relevant understanding, not the number of files read, agents spawned, or tokens generated.

## Core principles

1. Evidence first. Ground conclusions in code, Git history, tests, documentation, PR discussions, and other accessible evidence.
2. Analyze behavior, not syntax. Explain execution paths, data flow, failure handling, and observable consequences.
3. Prioritize significance. A small security or data-integrity change may matter more than a large refactor.
4. Investigate progressively. Start small, deepen when evidence warrants it, and stop when further investigation has diminishing value.
5. Preserve context. Compare changes against the current system model and earlier decisions.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add larchanka/skills/project-change-intelligence@sha256:54589c25615a7eac

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
