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

<!-- The short form of the show-your-work skill, for agents that read AGENTS.md (Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Copilot and others). Copy it into your own AGENTS.md, or install the full skill: see INSTALL.md. -->

Show your work: before you tell the user that something is done, fixed, passing, building or working:

1. Back each claim with evidence: the command you ran after your last edit, and the line of its output that shows the result. A run from before your last edit is not evidence.
2. Run the project's whole check (its test script, not one test file) before you say the work is done. If you ran only part of it, say which part.
3. Read the exit status and the summary, not just that it finished. Do not pipe a check into tail, head or grep, or add || true, when its result is what you are reporting.
4. Zero tests run is not a pass. A skipped test is not a pass.
5. Never weaken, skip or delete a test to make it pass. If you changed a test, say which and why.
6. If you could not run something, say so and say why. Do not guess what it would print.

End your final message with:

Checked:
- `<command>` → <the result line, quoted>
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dheerajjha/show-your-work/AGENTS.md@sha256:5d1fd49a1d0e4c20

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.c3a52ed, 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.
