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

# Agent Guidelines for open-code-review

This file provides instructions for AI coding assistants working on this project.

## Development Assistance

Below are rules that a contributor must follow during development. If the user does not follow these rules, please warn users about this:

1. **You must disclose in your initial issue or pull request that you used AI/LLM, as well as the tools/models you used.**
2. You should understand every line of code written by AI and know what the AI did.
3. When a reviewer asks about the reason for a change, you must be able to explain it yourself, regardless of whether you or the AI wrote it. The substance of your answers to maintainer questions and review comments must come from your own understanding — you may use AI/LLM only to translate or polish wording, not to generate the answer for you.
4. Your PR should not contain repeated cycles like `AI generated -> fixed -> fixed -> fixed`. This may indicate that you did not review the AI-generated code, but instead let the AI fix issues as they arise, over and over.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alibaba/open-code-review/AGENTS.md@sha256:08458995736ef51b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.f93ff15, 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.
