NLSpec authoring — use when you need a structured specification from multi-AI research and consensus.
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
# STOP - SKILL ALREADY LOADED **DO NOT call Skill() again. DO NOT load any more skills. Execute directly.** --- ## EXECUTION CONTRACT (MANDATORY - CANNOT SKIP) This skill uses **ENFORCED execution mode**. You MUST follow this exact 8-step sequence. --- ### STEP 1: Clarifying Questions (MANDATORY) **Ask via AskUserQuestion BEFORE any other action.** You MUST gather these inputs from the user — spec quality depends on knowing actors, constraints, and complexity upfront; without these the research query is too broad and the spec will have gaps: ``` AskUserQuestion with these questions: 1. **What to specify**: Project or feature name + brief description - "What system/feature should I specify?" 2. **Actors**: Who interacts with this system? - Options: End Users, Developers, Admins, External Services, Other 3. **Key constraints**: What matters most? - Options: Performance, Security, Compatibility, Scale - (multiSelect: true) 4. **Complexity class**: How complex is this? - Clear (well-understood, straightforward) - Complicated (multiple parts, but knowable) - Complex (emergent behavior, unknowns) ``` …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/flow-spec@sha256:6f719857069b9dbaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.5c257fc, 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.
