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
> **Host: Codex CLI** — This skill was designed for Claude Code and adapted for Codex. > Cross-reference commands use installed skill names in Codex rather than `/octo:*` slash commands. > Use the active Codex shell and subagent tools. Do not claim a provider, model, or host subagent is available until the current session exposes it. > For host tool equivalents, see `skills/blocks/codex-host-adapter.md`. # Intent Contract System ## Purpose The intent contract creates a **persistent record of user intent** that: - Captures what the user is trying to accomplish - Defines success criteria upfront - Establishes boundaries and constraints - Travels through the entire workflow - Validates final outputs against original intent This closes the loop between intention and delivery. ## Intent Contract Structure The intent contract is stored in the current resolved plan run directory as `session-intent.md`. Use `scripts/plan-storage.sh` to create or recover that directory; never write a loose intent file into `.claude/`. ```markdown # Intent Contract **Created**: [ISO timestamp] **Workflow**: [discover/embrace/review/etc.] **Status**: [active/validating/completed] ## Job Statement …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-intent-contract@sha256:8ed555eaad55b599The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260902.79d62e2, 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.
