skillit-bootstrap from pradeepmouli/skillit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add pradeepmouli/skillit/skillit-bootstrap@v0.1.0Pins v0.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Bootstrap an AI-agent skill from a TypeScript codebase by running the deterministic skillit generate/audit loop and enriching repo source (JSDoc, README, config-type properties, MCP tool annotations, examples, package.json) until the skill reaches its grade target. Use for cli, typedoc, config, or mcp (build-mode) projects; never edit SKILL.md/references directly.
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
# skillit-bootstrap
Bootstrap a high-quality AI-agent skill from a TypeScript codebase. You run the
deterministic skillit pipeline, read its machine-readable findings, and enrich
the **repo source** (JSDoc, README, examples, package.json) until the generated
skill reaches its grade target. skillit owns the skill output; you own the
inputs.
## The one hard rule
**Never create or edit any `SKILL.md` or `references/*.md` for the target
project.** Those are pure outputs of `skillit gen` — regenerated every pass. You
edit only repo _source surfaces_. If you find yourself about to write a
`SKILL.md`, stop: the fix belongs in the source the skill is generated from.
## When to use
- A `cli` (Commander), `typedoc` (TypeScript library), `config` (a TypeScript
config type), or `mcp` (an MCP server whose TS source you own — "build mode")
project that needs a generated agent skill, or whose skill scores below its
grade target.
- Run after the project is set up with the right `@skillit/*` package (see
step 1).
- **Third-party MCP servers you cannot edit** are out of scope here: with no
editable source, the skill is produced from an overlay ("runtime mode") via

How to install
mdr add pradeepmouli/skillit/skillit-bootstrap@sha256:8d6a2630d01a7c39The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
