Authoring OR reviewing a learn/ guide (learn/benefits/*.md, learn/agentos/*.md). Enforces the grounding discipline (memory-mine + use-the-subsystem's-tools before writing), the rich-narrative + benefits + lived-voice content bar, render-verified TD Mermaid, conceptual-vs-reference separation, the never-hand-edit-generated-files rule, and a no-rubber-stamp reviewer gate.
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
# Guide Authoring Skill If you are authoring OR reviewing a `learn/` guide (`learn/benefits/*.md`, `learn/agentos/*.md`), you MUST immediately use the `view_file` tool to read and strictly adhere to `.agents/skills/guide-authoring/references/guide-authoring-bar.md` before writing the first sentence or posting a review verdict. A guide is held to a 9/10 bar: written by *using* the system (not inference), narrative + benefits-driven with lived voice, render-verified diagrams, reference extracted-not-inlined, and reviewed against the WHOLE bar (not the narrow required-action delta). Skipping it is the higher-cost path — MemoryCore took ~7 cycles and KnowledgeBase a rubber-stamp reversal precisely because this discipline was skipped (the operator rejects 75%+ of guides that miss it).

How to install
mdr add neomjs/neo-agent-skills/guide-authoring@sha256:19008b6cc9046d8fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260825.243157f, 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.
