contributing 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.
contributing from yichen-zju/claude-for-research is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Maintain and improve this Claude Code research environment — its skills, subagents, conventions, and workflows. Use when the task is to add, fix, or refactor research capabilities in ~/.claude/.
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
# Contributing Use this skill when working on the research environment itself (the skill library in `~/.claude/skills/`, subagents in `~/.claude/agents/`, and conventions in `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md`). ## Conventions - Skills live in `~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` with frontmatter `name`, `description` (the trigger), and optionally `argument-hint`. - Subagents live in `~/.claude/agents/<name>.md` with frontmatter `name`, `description`, `tools`. - Research output conventions (slugs, `outputs/`, `papers/`, provenance) live in `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` — keep that file conditional so it does not interfere with non-research coding sessions. - Skills reference real tooling only: Claude Code tools (`WebSearch`, `WebFetch`, `Agent`, `AskUserQuestion`, `CronCreate`), MCP servers (`alphaxiv`), and Bash CLIs (`modal`, `runpodctl`, `docker`). Never invent tool names. ## Minimum checks before claiming a change is done - The skill/agent file parses (valid frontmatter, name matches directory). - Referenced subagents exist in `~/.claude/agents/`. - Referenced CLIs exist (`command -v ...`) or the skill says what to do when they don't. …

How to install
mdr add yichen-zju/claude-for-research/contributing@sha256:f17d17b9c62f5a19The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.9f2a5e0, 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.
