Generate renovate.json covering all dependency file types used in a repo, emit a GitHub Actions workflow that validates renovate.json on every PR, or generate a pre-commit hook for local validation.
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
## Interactive Wizard (fires when $ARGUMENTS is empty)
When invoked with no arguments, ask these questions before proceeding. Ask each question individually and wait for the answer before asking the next.
**Q1 — Mode?**
```
What do you need?
1. generate — scan this repo and create renovate.json covering all detected dep file types
2. workflow — generate a GitHub Actions workflow that validates renovate.json on every PR
3. precommit — generate a .pre-commit-config.yaml hook that validates renovate.json locally
4. all — generate renovate.json + pre-commit hook + GitHub Actions workflow in one pass
Enter 1–4 or mode name:
```
**Q2 — Pinning strategy?** (ask only for modes that emit renovate.json: `generate`, `all`)
```
How should Renovate pin dependency versions?
1. digest — pin GitHub Actions and container images to commit SHA; semver for packages
(maximum supply chain security — recommended)
2. semver — pin to semver tags/versions for all ecosystems; no SHA digests
(simpler PRs, easier to read at a glance)
Enter 1–2:
```
**Q3 — Automerge scope?** (ask only for modes that emit renovate.json: `generate`, `all`)
```

How to install
mdr add nitinjain999/platform-skills/renovate@sha256:4ea1c1f10448630eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.e8166a5, 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.
