Use when integrating the kitup SDK into a CLI that ships a bundled Agent Skill and needs to install it on local agent hosts. Also use when wiring install flags, optional status or uninstall, or the Go Cobra adapter.

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

# Kitup

Use kitup as a producer-side SDK. The embedding CLI owns the bundled skill and command names. kitup owns host resolution, skill validation, copy/update/uninstall behavior, `.kitup.json` metadata, conflict safety, and structured reports.

Call the SDK with:

- `appId`: stable id for the embedding CLI
- `skillBundle`: bundled skill directory tree source containing `SKILL.md`
- `scope`: `user` or `project`
- `agents`: explicit host ids, `auto`, or all supported hosts

## CLI surface

Recommended user-facing command:

```bash
mycli skill install
mycli skill install --dry-run
```

Standard install flags: `--scope`, repeatable `--agent`, `--dry-run`, `--yes` / `-y`, `--force`.

Do not add `plan`, `update`, or `upgrade` subcommands. `--dry-run` is the plan. Re-running install updates kitup-owned copies of the same `appId`. `planBundledSkill` and `updateBundledSkill` are that same install path, not extra commands.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lathe-cli/kitup/kitup@sha256:0e9ae7b6c91b2363

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.032629c, 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.
