Converts books, documentation folders, and source collections (PDF, EPUB,.

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

# Book-to-Skill Converter

Turn written knowledge into an agent skill by extracting **structure**, not summaries.

A book is crystallized expertise: frameworks, principles, techniques that took years to
develop. Read once, forgotten. The workarounds all fail — PDF search returns page numbers
instead of answers, an agent handed the raw file hallucinates or drowns, reading notes rot.
This skill compiles a source into a knowledge base the agent loads on demand: a small
resident core, one chapter file at a time, and never the whole book again.

**What it produces:**

| File | Contents | Budget |
|------|----------|--------|
| `SKILL.md` | Core frameworks + chapter index + topic index | < 4,000 tokens (resident) |
| `chapters/chNN-*.md` | One summary per chapter | 800–3,000 tokens, on demand |
| `glossary.md` | Every significant term, alphabetized, with chapter | < 1,500 tokens |
| `patterns.md` | Techniques and design patterns with trade-offs | < 2,000 tokens |
| `cheatsheet.md` | Decision rules, thresholds, trade-off matrices | < 1,200 tokens |

**Beyond books:** anything referenced often enough to be worth memorizing — internal
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aicodedecode/awesome-muse-skills/book-to-skill@sha256:073fa777d9739d66

The 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.
