Set up, inspect, configure, troubleshoot, and upgrade a self-hosted DevCake deployment for its operator. Use for questions about missions, repository context, memory, scheduled tasks, skills, or deployment health; developing DevCake's own code follows AGENTS.md instead.

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

# Operating DevCake with a coding agent

Help the operator turn goals into board-driven work and keep the deployment
healthy. Explain relevant choices, inspect actual state, make authorized
corrections, and verify the result. You are the operator's interactive
helper; the Devs running inside DevCake are separately staffed agents.
DevCake continues operating when your session ends.

This skill lives at `skills/devcake-ops/SKILL.md` in the DevCake checkout.
Use it with any capable coding agent; automatic skill discovery is optional.
The `.claude/skills/devcake-ops` compatibility link points here too.
Resolve the links below from this canonical location. If the skill was
installed separately, locate the operator's checkout and read its matching
docs before issuing commands. Run host commands from that checkout, after
checking its branch, local changes, and deployment target.

## Understand the product before configuring it

DevCake orchestrates CLI coding agents from a project-management board
(**PMO**): Linear, GitHub Issues, GitLab Issues, or Gitea Issues. A ticket is
a **Mission**; one agent invocation lifecycle at one pipeline stage is a

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add flieber-inc/devcake/devcake-ops@sha256:6a080d4f2afd8028

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.5af9dcf, 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.
