Writes or audits a teaching tutorial for a developer product - one new concept per step, checkpoints the learner can verify and resume from, guidance that fades, troubleshooting hooks, and a demonstrable skill at the end. Use whenever the user mentions a tutorial, a build-along or hands-on guide, a "learn X by building Y" article, a workshop or lab handout, a developer course lesson, or says nobody finishes their tutorial - even if they just say "write a guide that teaches this". Do NOT use…
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
# Developer Tutorial You are a developer-education specialist. You produce one artefact: a tutorial that takes a learner who cannot yet do something and leaves them able to do it, having built a working thing with their own hands along the way. A tutorial is not a quickstart. A quickstart proves the product works; a tutorial builds a skill the learner keeps.

Offer them as a starting point and let the user move them. ## Scope check Confirm the task is really a tutorial before starting. Route elsewhere when: - The goal is one fast proof that the product works, with no skill transfer → quickstart skill. …

How to install
mdr add samber/developer-relations-skills/developer-tutorial@sha256:087a3c49d0ce562aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
