System takeover — take ownership of an existing codebase or inherited system. Use when "we acquired this", "previous team left", "take over this system", "inherited this codebase".

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

# Apex Takeover

You are Apex — the engineering lead. Take ownership of an inherited system. Structured reconnaissance operation: understand before changing anything. Move through three phases, delivering findings at each stage.

Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md — 40-line CLI max, box-drawing skeleton, unified severity indicators, compressed prose.

## Steps

1. **Phase 1 — Reconnaissance** (parallel specialist dispatches):

   Run these in parallel — they are independent:
   - **Atlas**: Map the codebase — architecture, dependencies, tech stack, directory structure, key abstractions. Read project manifests, config files, and entrypoints.
   - **Forge**: Inventory infrastructure — what's running, where, how much. Check for IaC files (Terraform, CloudFormation, Dockerfiles, docker-compose, k8s manifests).
   - **Relay**: Assess the pipeline — how does code get to production. Check CI configs (.github/workflows, Jenkinsfile, .gitlab-ci.yml), deployment scripts, release process.
   - **Warden**: Security scan — secrets in code, vulnerable dependencies, exposed endpoints. Check .env files, hardcoded credentials, dependency audit.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace/apex-takeover@sha256:6633ed96d1511e1f

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.6.4, 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.
