Use after brainstorming completes - writes validated designs to docs/design-plans/ with structured format and discrete implementation phases required for creating detailed implementation plans.
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
# Writing Design Plans ## Overview Complete the design document by appending validated design from brainstorming to the existing file (created in Phase 3 of starting-a-design-plan) and filling in the Summary and Glossary placeholders. **Core principle:** Append body to existing document. Generate Summary and Glossary. Commit for permanence. **Announce at start:** "I'm using the writing-design-plans skill to complete the design document." **Context:** Design document already exists with Title, Summary placeholder, confirmed Definition of Done, and Glossary placeholder. This skill appends the body and fills in placeholders. ## Level of Detail: Design vs Implementation **Design plans are directional and archival.** They can be checked into git and referenced months later. Other design plans may depend on contracts specified here. **Implementation plans are tactical and just-in-time.** They verify current codebase state and generate executable code immediately before execution. **What belongs in design plans:** | Include | Exclude | |---------|---------| | Module and directory structure | Task-level breakdowns | | Component names and responsibilities | Implementation code | …

How to install
mdr add ed3dai/ed3d-plugins/writing-design-plans@sha256:f3c5291a3d8dbf84The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260616.eb1d79c, 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.
