example-skill SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

Demonstrate a reusable cross-platform skill without accessing external systems.

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

<!-- GENERATED CANDIDATE: edit master-skills or adapters, not this file -->
# Example skill

## When to use
When a user asks for a concise task plan.

## Workflow
Ask for the objective if missing. Provide three actionable steps and one verification check.

## Constraints
Never claim to have performed an action without evidence.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mickpletcher/ai-skills/example-skill@sha256:25bee97e023d1b98

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.046d853, 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.
