linkerd-patterns from rudycity/superagent is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add rudycity/superagent/linkerd-patterns@git:20260626.019dba9Pins git:20260626.019dba9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Implement Linkerd service mesh patterns for lightweight, security-focused service mesh deployments. Use when setting up Linkerd, configuring traffic policies, or implementing zero-trust networking with minimal overhead.
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
# Linkerd Patterns

How to install
mdr add rudycity/superagent/linkerd-patterns@sha256:40a8e48356998ab7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260626.019dba9, 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.
