bootstrap SKILL.md skillA

bootstrap from kanevry/session-orchestrator is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add kanevry/session-orchestrator/bootstrap@git:20261021.728a583

Pins git:20261021.728a583 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use this skill when scaffolding the minimum repository structure required by session-orchestrator. Invoked automatically by the Bootstrap Gate when CLAUDE.md, Session Config, or bootstrap.lock is missing. Also available as /bootstrap for manual invocation. Three intensity tiers: fast (demos/spikes), standard (MVPs), deep (production/team).

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

# Bootstrap Skill

## Invocation

The user invokes `/bootstrap` with arguments: **$ARGUMENTS**. Direct invocation runs with
`INVOCATION_MODE = direct` (see § Invocation Context) and is standalone: after bootstrap
completes, report the files created and the git commit hash, and do NOT automatically
continue into any other skill.

**TL;DR — for first-time users:** Run `/bootstrap` with no flags. The skill auto-detects the right tier (fast/standard/deep) from your repo, recommends one with a one-line reason, then walks a **fixed questionnaire** — tier/stack (1–2 prompts), owner persona (5), dispatcher autonomy (1); **7–9 prompts** on a first-run full bootstrap. Bestätigen → fertig. Keine weiteren Schritte.

The flags below cover special cases (re-adopting an existing repo, upgrading a tier, syncing rules). If you don't recognize the case in the description, you don't need the flag.

> **Instruction file alias:** Bootstrap creates and reads `CLAUDE.md` (or `AGENTS.md` on Codex CLI). The two are transparent aliases — pick one, never both. Resolution rule: see `skills/_shared/instruction-file-resolution.md`.

### Standard usage (no flags)

This is the path 95 % of users want.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kanevry/session-orchestrator/bootstrap@sha256:8f25f567bea10d68

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.728a583, 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.
