KNOWLEDGE — canonical worked examples for agent creation, migration, and command optimization. Reference for the relevant procedures; no sequence.
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
# nw-ab-examples (KNOWLEDGE) **Kind**: KNOWLEDGE (reference). Loaded on demand by the procedure whose example it carries. No forced sequence. ### Example 1: Good V2 Agent (Specialist) User requests agent for database migration planning. ```yaml --- name: nw-db-migrator description: Use for database migration planning. Designs migration strategies with rollback safety. model: inherit tools: Read, Glob, Grep, Bash maxTurns: 40 skills: - nw-deployment-strategies --- ``` Core definition: ~150 lines (role, 5 divergent principles, 4-phase workflow, 4 critical rules, 3 examples). Domain knowledge extracted to the `nw-deployment-strategies` skill (rollback planning, ~200 lines). Total always-loaded: ~150 lines. With skill: ~350 lines. ### Example 2: Bad Monolithic Agent 2,400-line spec with embedded YAML config, 17 commands, 7-layer enterprise security framework, aggressive language. Action: Apply migration path: 1. Extract YAML config -> frontmatter (5 lines) 2. Remove 5 "production frameworks" duplicating platform features (~400 lines saved) 3. Remove default behavior specifications (~500 lines saved) 4. Extract domain knowledge to 2-3 Skills (~800 lines moved) …

How to install
mdr add nwave-ai/nwave/nw-ab-examples@sha256:783606bca3b0cff6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.c67d57b, 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.
