codebase-alignment SKILL.md skillB
codebase-alignment from pantheon-org/tekhne is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/codebase-alignment@git:20260711.6d8d5c4Pins git:20260711.6d8d5c4 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Given a user-provided set of coding standards (either as direct text input or as a link to a file/URL), systematically review the codebase to identify violations, report findings, and optionally remediate them. The model MUST ask the user for the standards — never guess or assume them.
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
# Codebase Alignment — Audit a Codebase Against User-Provided Standards Systematically checks every file in a codebase against human-readable standards the user supplies, reports violations grouped by file and convention, and offers to fix them. ## Mindset **The model MUST NOT guess or assume the standards. This is the core constraint.** If the user says "align this with our conventions" without spelling them out, stop and ask. Standards that are assumed are standards that are wrong. Conventions that cannot be checked at all (subjective design preferences, naming that depends on context) should be reported as "manual review needed" — do not pretend an objective check was run when one wasn't. Fix suggestions are best-effort. When a violation is ambiguous (e.g. a naming convention that could be fixed multiple ways), flag it for the user rather than guessing. ## When to Use - Onboarding a new team member who needs the codebase brought in line with docs - After adopting a new style guide or coding standard - Before a major release or code review sprint - When migrating a codebase and need to verify alignment with target conventions …

How to install
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/codebase-alignment@sha256:0bd6da68391f2604The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260711.6d8d5c4, 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.
