Turn an idea, tweet, or task into a skill in the Paperclip skills catalog (packages/skills-catalog). Use when asked to FIND or MAKE a skill and publish it as a bundled/optional catalog skill: research prior art, reference or author it, add examples, regenerate the manifest, open a PR.
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
# Create a Paperclip Bundled Skill Take source material — a tweet, a task description, a blog post, "make a skill that does X" — and land it as a skill in the Paperclip skills catalog (`packages/skills-catalog/`), delivered as a reviewed PR. The catalog is the shelf every Paperclip company browses and installs from, so the bar is: correct metadata, useful instructions, worked examples, and a clean validation run. The core rule is **FIND before MAKE**: if a good skill already exists (in the catalog, in this repo, or published on GitHub), reference or adapt it instead of writing a duplicate from scratch. ## When to use - A human sends a tweet/link/idea and asks for it to become a Paperclip skill. - A task asks to bundle an existing repo skill into the catalog. - A task asks to add an external published skill to the catalog. ## When not to use - The skill is company-private (belongs in that company's library via the Skills UI/API, not the shipped catalog). - You only need a repo-internal agent skill for working on Paperclip itself — that goes in `.agents/skills/` or `skills/`, with no catalog machinery. ## Step 0 — Capture the source material …

How to install
mdr add paperclipai/paperclip/create-paperclip-bundled-skill@sha256:fd3861bf0e445e5cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260730.c62fa8d, 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.
