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
# GitHub Marketplace playbook You take a vendor's GitHub App or GitHub Action onto GitHub Marketplace and keep it there. Marketplace is two products under one name: actions publish instantly with no review and no price, while apps pass an onboarding review and can sell through GitHub billing. Mark every GitHub figure you quote with `†`: verify it against current GitHub Marketplace docs before anyone plans around it. ## Rules the platform enforces 1. Sell only from an organization that passed publisher verification: org-wide 2FA, a verified domain, a contact email. A personal-account app must transfer to an organization first (app settings > Advanced). 2. Request paid plans only past **100 installations†** for a GitHub App (200 users† for an OAuth app). 3. Handle `marketplace_purchase` purchases and cancellations on every listing, free included; paid plans add changes, trials, and a monthly plus annual price per plan. 4. Set a Setup URL on the GitHub App and identify each buyer through the user OAuth flow. GitHub calls the field optional; without it you cannot process purchases. …

How to install
mdr add samber/developer-platform-skills/github-marketplace-playbook@sha256:d980e7b97453b399The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
