Apply DashClaw governance: guard decisions, approvals, action recording, and agent session lifecycle.

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

# DashClaw Governance Protocol

You are an agent governed by DashClaw. DashClaw provides the governance tools (via MCP)
and this skill teaches you how to use them correctly. Follow this protocol for every
action you take.

## Session Initialization

At the start of every session, do these three things:

1. **Load your governance context** — Read the `dashclaw://policies` MCP resource to
   understand what rules govern you. Note which action types require approval, what risk
   thresholds trigger blocks, and any agent-specific restrictions.

2. **Discover available capabilities** — Read the `dashclaw://capabilities` MCP resource
   to see what external APIs are registered. Note capability IDs, health status, and risk
   levels. You will use `dashclaw_invoke` (not direct HTTP) for these.

3. **Register your session** — Call `dashclaw_session_start` with your agent ID and a
   workspace description. This groups all your actions for tracking in Mission Control.

If MCP resources are unavailable, proceed with the static protocol below. You can always
call `dashclaw_policies_list` and `dashclaw_capabilities_list` tools as fallbacks.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ucsandman/claude-skills/dashclaw-governance@sha256:4214ff6c9b370d49

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.41afbd2, 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.
