Work a hackathon research-first and write it up. Event rules and judging, who the judges and mentors are, what the other teams built and where their code is (GitHub, Devpost gallery), live notes from the stage, the report afterwards, and the follow-ups to the people you met (who to write, drafts, when); scout mode analyses the winners of hackathons you never attended. Use when user says "хакатон", "ресерч хакатона", "кто судьи на хакатоне", "найди репо команд", "разбери галерею devpost…

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

# hackathon: research the room, then write it up

A hackathon is a day of cheap validation and a room full of people building in your space. This
skill makes sure you walk in knowing the rules, the judges and the field, keep honest notes while
it happens, and leave with a report, a list of ideas worth copying and the follow-ups to the people
you met: the network is what is left a month later. Scout mode does the same
for events you did not attend: what won, with which stack, and what the winning repos show.

## Setup

- **Where files go.** `HACKATHONS_DIR` (default `./hackathons`). One folder per event, one per
  scout run. If the user's knowledge base has a personal variant `hackathon-my.md` (the `-my`
  convention, e.g. in `1-methodology/`), read it first: it can set the directory, a guest-list
  tool and the products to target.
- **"Your products".** Every "copy into" and "who to meet" line names one of the user's products.
  Read them from the user's CLAUDE.md, the projects registry or the `-my` file; never guess.

```
$HACKATHONS_DIR/
  README.md                          one row per event: date, name, folder, project, result
  YYYY-MM-DD-<short-name>/

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fortunto2/solo-factory/solo-hackathon@sha256:00863ef71e2b0136

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.5.0, 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.
