priorart skillA
priorart is agent-read markdown (skill) from duthaho/skillhub: Prior-art check before you build — does this idea already exist? Takes a project/tool/library idea, reframes it in the vocabularies different communities would use, searches where builders publish (code registries, Show HN, arXiv), traces each match one dependency-layer down to the real incumbent, and returns a locator-backed landscape plus exactly one verdict: Build / Fork X / Contribute to Y / Use Z / Investigate first. Checked ideas persist in out/priorart/checked.md, so re-checking one opens.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
How to install
mdr add duthaho/skillhub/priorart@git:20260714.fd6a387mdr add duthaho/skillhub/priorart@sha256:3da82d0aa76d0059Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
