Sync every enabled repo in the curated skill index and open a confirmation-gated PR. Use when refreshing already-indexed sources. Don't use for adding new repos, improving a single skill, or installing skills locally.
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
# Refresh Index
Re-ingest every enabled repository in `data/skill-index-resources.json` so `data/skill-index/{owner}_{repo}.json` matches upstream. Classify each repo as **updated / unchanged / failed / skipped**, verify the catalog rebuilds, then open one data-only PR after explicit confirmation.
This is the inverse of `skill-index-updater` (that skill **adds** repos). Keep SKILL.md as the spine and load step detail from `references/` so the agent's context budget stays small.
## When to Use
- User asks to "refresh the index", "update the indexed skills", "sync the catalog", "re-ingest all repos", or "batch-maintain the skill index"
- A scheduled refresh is due, or a release needs current upstream skill metadata
Do **not** trigger for: adding a new repository (`skill-index-updater`), authoring or improving a single skill (`skill-creator`), opening an upstream PR (`skill-upstream-pr`), or installing/updating skills on the local machine (`asm install`, `asm update`).
## Repo Sync Before Edits (mandatory)
Before re-ingesting anything, pull the latest remote branch:
```bash
branch="$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)"
dirty=0
if [ -n "$(git status --porcelain)" ]; then
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add luongnv89/asm/refresh-index@sha256:1532873ca3b66634The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.0, 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.
