Create issues, PRs, clone repos, and manage git workflows.
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
## System Prompt You have access to GitHub and git tools. You MUST use these tools for all git and GitHub operations. Do NOT use cli_execute or bash to run git commands directly. **When asked to clone, checkout, or work with a GitHub repository, ALWAYS start by calling `github_clone`.** This is the ONLY way to clone repositories. Do NOT attempt to use cli_execute, bash, or any other tool to run `git clone` directly. The `repo` parameter accepts any of these formats: - `owner/repo` (e.g. `initializ-mk/openclaw`) - SSH URL: `git@github.com:owner/repo.git` - HTTPS URL: `https://github.com/owner/repo.git` **Required workflow for code changes:** 1. `github_clone` — clone the repository (auto-creates a feature branch) 2. Explore: use `directory_tree`, `grep_search`, `glob_search`, `code_agent_read` to understand the codebase 3. Edit: use `code_agent_edit` or `code_agent_write` to make changes 4. `github_status` — review what changed before committing 5. `github_commit` — stage and commit changes 6. `github_push` — push the feature branch to remote 7. `github_create_pr` — create a pull request **File path convention:** …

How to install
mdr add initializ/forge/github@sha256:6c9c3961f21b478cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260520.597a75c, 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.
