Structured group-decision mechanic that captures silent ideation, voting summaries, and Decider sign-off in a single bundled artifact. Use when a small team needs to make a fast decision with diverse input, when groupthink is a risk, or when a workshop moment demands silent contribution before discussion. Applicable to Foundation Sprint, Design Sprint, and any participatory decision context.

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

# Note-and-Vote

Run a structured group decision in 20-30 minutes. Silent contribution surfaces independent thinking before group dynamics narrow the option space; explicit Decider supervote closes the choice. Produces a written audit trail of the decision and the alternatives considered.

## When to Use

- A small team (3-10 people) needs to make a fast decision with diverse input.
- Groupthink, status bias, or loudest-voice dominance is a real risk.
- A workshop or meeting moment demands silent ideation before open discussion.
- The decision needs an audit trail (what was considered, why the chosen option won).
- Decision authority is clear (a Decider exists and is in the room or available).
- Used heavily across Foundation Sprint and Design Sprint at decision moments.

## When NOT to Use

- A single person owns the decision and just needs to make it. Use direct judgment.
- Consensus has already emerged organically. The voting overhead adds friction without value.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/pm-skills/tool-note-and-vote@sha256:cdece70dbabcdba6

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.
