refactor from sd0xdev/sd0x-harness is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add sd0xdev/sd0x-harness/refactor@git:20261006.c9a2036

Pins git:20261006.c9a2036 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Multi-target refactoring orchestrator. Use when: cleaning up messy code/docs, simplifying code, restructuring documents, batch cleanup. Not for: new features (use feature-dev), bug fixes (use bug-fix), code understanding (use code-explore). Output: refactored code/docs + review gate.

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.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sd0xdev/sd0x-harness/refactor@sha256:ef17d8b085ae87db

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.c9a2036, 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.
