trellis-spec-bootstrap 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.

trellis-spec-bootstrap from fy-agent/fyagent is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add fy-agent/fyagent/trellis-spec-bootstrap@git:20260820.520ddb7

Pins git:20260820.520ddb7 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Bootstrap project-specific Trellis coding specs with a platform-neutral single-agent workflow. Use when creating or refreshing .trellis/spec guidelines, analyzing a codebase with GitNexus, ABCoder, or source inspection, decomposing package/layer spec work, and writing real codebase-backed spec docs without placeholder text.

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

# Trellis Spec Bootstrap

Use this skill to create or refresh `.trellis/spec/` guidelines from the real codebase. One capable agent owns the full loop: analyze the repository, choose the spec boundaries, write the docs, and verify the result. The workflow does not depend on a specific host, CLI, or agent brand.

## Workflow

1. Confirm Trellis is initialized and inspect the current `.trellis/spec/` tree.
2. Analyze the repository architecture with the best available tools: GitNexus, ABCoder, language tooling, and direct source reads.
3. Decompose the spec work by package and layer only when that reflects the actual codebase.
4. Fill or reshape the spec files with concrete patterns, file paths, examples, and anti-patterns from the project.
5. Verify that the final specs are internally consistent and contain no template placeholders.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fy-agent/fyagent/trellis-spec-bootstrap@sha256:97bfa68c06cebb55

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260820.520ddb7, 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.
