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

# Working in this repo (humans and agents)

Derive leans on a **deterministic gate** rather than on remembering conventions. The
rules that matter are machine-enforced, so a mistake fails the build instead of
shipping. Before you call a change done:

```bash
pnpm verify        # exactly what CI's `check` job runs, in the same order
```

which is these three, and you can run them one at a time while iterating:

```bash
pnpm run ci        # biome + every custom guardrail, run concurrently (~5s)
pnpm typecheck     # tsgo across the workspace
pnpm test          # vitest against the embedded SQLite store
```

The pre-push hook runs `pnpm verify:affected`: the same gate, with typecheck and tests
scoped to the packages your branch changed and their dependents. CI runs the full
`pnpm verify` on every push.

`check` is the big gate but not the only one: CI also runs a gitleaks secret scan,
the Postgres and D1 store contracts against real engines, and the bundle and runner
image builds. Those need services or a network, so they stay in CI. A green
`pnpm verify` means the check job will pass, not that every job will. A test fixture
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add derive-to/derive/AGENTS.md@sha256:ce52648cfe3292e0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260821.bee948f, 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.
