ai-md SKILL.md skillA
ai-md from ghosteken/agent-harness is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add ghosteken/agent-harness/ai-md@git:20260721.efafd9cPins git:20260721.efafd9c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Convert human-written CLAUDE.md into AI-native structured-label format. Battle-tested across 4 models. Same rules, fewer tokens, higher compliance.
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
# AI.MD v4 — The Complete AI-Native Conversion System ## When to Use This Skill - Use when your CLAUDE.md is long but AI still ignores your rules - Use when token usage is too high from verbose system instructions - Use when you want to optimize any LLM system prompt for compliance - Use when migrating rules between AI tools (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Grok) ## What Is AI.MD? AI.MD is a methodology for converting human-written `CLAUDE.md` (or any LLM system instructions) into a structured-label format that AI models follow more reliably, using fewer tokens. **The paradox we proved:** Adding more rules in natural language DECREASES compliance. Converting the same rules to structured format RESTORES and EXCEEDS it. ``` Human prose (6 rules, 1 line) → AI follows 4 of them Structured labels (6 rules, 6 lines) → AI follows all 6 Same content. Different format. Different results. ``` --- ## Why It Works: How LLMs Actually Process Instructions LLMs don't "read" — they **attend**. Understanding this changes everything. ### Mechanism 1: Attention Splitting When multiple rules share one line, the model's attention distributes across all tokens equally. …

How to install
mdr add ghosteken/agent-harness/ai-md@sha256:b322fcd60bf7a13dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.efafd9c, 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.
