Use when tracking retention withheld or held across construction contracts: caps, defects liability periods, 2-tranche release, NSW and Queensland trust account obligations, and the tie-out to the retention asset and liability in the ledger.

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

# Retention schedule

Build a per-contract retention schedule that carries every amount from withholding through to release, and tie it to the retention asset and retention liability in the general ledger. The output is a schedule plus an exceptions list, not an opinion on entitlement.

## Inputs needed

1. Contract register: counterparty, whether the entity is the contracting or contracted party and whether it contracts as principal, the state where the work is carried out, contract price, contract date, whether the work is building work, and whether the contracting party is a special purpose vehicle
2. Retention clauses: amount withheld per payment, overall cap, reduction at practical completion, defects liability period (DLP) and the event that starts it, whether retention is taken as cash or as a security, and any initialled clause purporting to exclude the QBCC Act s 67K cap
3. Securities held or given per contract (bank guarantees, bonds, cash security), because the Queensland caps test retention and securities together

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ryanduguid/australian-accounting-skills/retention-schedule@sha256:de0f9b9a42fc0003

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.57d5e84, 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.
