Configure this repo for the /developer unattended spec-delivery pipeline — patches the issue tracker doc with the pipeline's Delivery operations, writes docs/agents/code-host.md and its phase annexes (GitHub, GitLab or local first-class; anything else as freeform), checks the code-author/diff-reviewer agents are loaded, ensures the triage labels exist, asks for the run defaults written to docs/agents/developer-defaults.md, and recommends the Claude Code settings (project or global) for the…

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

# Setup Developer Skills

Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the `/developer` pipeline assumes.
This builds **on top of** Matt Pocock's engineering skills setup — it does not
replace it.

Two independent axes get configured, mirroring how the delivery skills read
the repo:

- **Issue tracker** — where issues live (`docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`,
  created by Matt's setup; this skill appends the pipeline's
  `## Delivery operations` section) plus its authoring annex
  (`docs/agents/issue-authoring.md`).
- **Code host** — where changes (PRs/MRs/branches) live
  (`docs/agents/code-host.md`, created here) plus its CI annex
  (`docs/agents/code-host-ci.md`).

They may differ (issues in Linear, code on GitHub). **GitHub, GitLab and
local are first-class** — templates ship with this skill. Anything else
(Jira, Linear, Gitea…) is configured as freeform prose, exactly like Matt's
setup handles "other" trackers.

**This skill is the only writer of these docs.** `/developer` and its workers
read `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md` and everything under `docs/agents/` as
instructions and never edit them. So a doc that has drifted out of date is fixed here
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sgomez/developer-skills/setup-developer-skills@sha256:99120023e75ae4c4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.009563c, 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.
