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

# AGENTS.md

This file provides guidance to AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Antigravity, etc.) when working with code in this repository.

> **Scope:** This file configures agents working on the [`addyosmani/agent-skills`](https://github.com/addyosmani/agent-skills) repository itself. It is not meant to be copied into other projects or into a global agent configuration; the reusable assets are the skills in `skills/`, not this file.

## Repository Overview

A collection of skills for Claude.ai and Claude Code for senior software engineers. Skills are packaged instructions and scripts that extend Claude and your coding agents capabilities.

## OpenCode Integration

OpenCode uses a **skill-driven execution model** powered by the `skill` tool and this repository's `/skills` directory.

### Core Rules

- If a task matches a skill, you MUST invoke it
- Skills are located in `skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md`
- Never implement directly if a skill applies
- Always follow the skill instructions exactly (do not partially apply them)

### Intent → Skill Mapping

The agent should automatically map user intent to skills:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add addyosmani/agent-skills/AGENTS.md@sha256:a12bac68c447f804

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260709.b665c5c, 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.
