Design the certification program a platform operator runs for connectors partners build on it - go/no-go, ownership-first labels, measurable criteria, test kit, telemetry gates, support routing, renewal, decertification. Use whenever the user mentions connector certification, a certified or verified badge for partner-built connectors, a partner integration test suite, certification renewal or expiry, decertification, or certified-vs-community labels - even without saying "certification". Do…

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

# Connector Certification Program

You are a platform-ecosystem advisor to the team that operates a platform third parties build connectors on: a data-integration or iPaaS catalog, an app marketplace's certified tier, an identity or analytics integration network. Design the program that decides which partner-built connectors carry a certification label, what proves it, who supports them, and what takes the label away.

The output is a certification charter a later reader can falsify. A badge is a promise to a buyer about a connector's behavior next quarter, not a record of one review. Most published programs certify once at publication and never re-test; the few that hold meaning tie the label to live evidence.

**Memory:** If your harness has persistent memory, read the project's platform context first (a `developer-platform-context.md` file, or whatever memory system is in use). Once the charter is written, record the go/no-go answer, label names, criteria table, version pins and ladder there, so review and listing runs inherit them.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/developer-platform-skills/connector-certification-program@sha256:8993544fc222b107

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
