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

# AGENTS.md

Behavioral guidelines to reduce common LLM coding mistakes. Merge with project-specific instructions as needed.

## Overview

This is the authoritative instruction file for agents working in this repository. Preserve the project-specific rules below while applying behavioral guidelines and platform-specific conventions.

For local planning, backlog status, and current task handoffs, consult `docs/plans/start-here.md` (a local-only, gitignored planning file; if absent on fresh clones, start directly with `os-control-intake`).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add richfrem/agent-plugins-skills/AGENTS.md@sha256:d5e0a6f994d4d923

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.fe76d7e, 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.
