astrophotography-processing from mickpletcher/ai-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add mickpletcher/ai-skills/astrophotography-processing@git:20261013.4e6bf9ePins git:20261013.4e6bf9e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Router for astrophotography processing, troubleshooting, and safe workflow guidance across deep-sky, narrowband, planetary/lunar/solar, Milky Way landscape, comet, and mosaic data.
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
# Astrophotography Processing ## Purpose Help users produce technically sound astrophotography results while preserving original data, metadata, and reproducibility. ## Use When Use this skill only when context clearly indicates astrophotography or night-sky imaging workflows. Trigger examples: - Telescope/lens star fields, deep-sky objects, Milky Way, comet, lunar/planetary/solar data - Calibration frames, stacking, registration, gradient removal, color calibration - FITS/XISF/RAW subs, linear masters, rejection maps, dithering, deconvolution - PixInsight, Siril, Astro Pixel Processor, DeepSkyStacker, StarNet, StarXTerminator, WinJUPOS, Python astro pipelines ## Do Not Use When - General photo editing requests without astronomy context - Fashion, portrait, product, wedding, travel edits not involving night-sky capture workflows ## Operating Mode Choose one primary mode and label it in the response: - Diagnosis: inspect visible or file-based issues and identify likely causes. - Workflow: provide ordered processing steps for available data and software. - Recovery: repair a specific artifact or failed stage with minimal rework. …

How to install
mdr add mickpletcher/ai-skills/astrophotography-processing@sha256:cd7cb402c584a2acThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.4e6bf9e, 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.
