Knowledge base from NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 3 (Protecting CUI in Nonfederal Systems). Use for CUI confidentiality requirements on contractors and other nonfederal organizations, the 17 requirement families, ODPs, SSPs, POA&Ms, and tailoring from SP 800-53. Covers 800-171r3 only; does not replace SP 800-171A assessment procedures, full SP 800-53 baselines, CMMC scoring mechanics, or classified-information controls.
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
<!-- argument-hint: [topic, family, or chapter number] --> # NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 3 — Protecting CUI in Nonfederal Systems **Source**: NIST SP 800-171r3 (US Government work, public domain) | **Chapters**: 8 ## When to use Reach for this pack when scoping, implementing, or assessing security requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information on nonfederal systems — typically under federal contracts or agreements. It is the right starting point for mapping the 17 requirement families, filling organization-defined parameters, writing or reviewing a system security plan, tracking deficiencies in POA&Ms, isolating CUI components, or understanding how 800-171 was tailored from the SP 800-53 moderate baseline. **Prerequisites:** none — plain Markdown; no MCP server, API key, or licence tier needed at runtime. ## How to Use This Skill - **Without arguments** — load the core frameworks below. - **With a topic** — ask about CUI scope, a family (e.g., access control, incident response, supply chain), ODPs, SSP, POA&M, media sanitization, MFA, or SCRM; I read the relevant chapter. - **With a chapter** — ask for `ch01` through `ch08`. …

How to install
mdr add jgsystemsconsulting/jgs-se-knowledge-packs/nist-800-171@sha256:33ee0ba4e766cbd9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260814.c6820a7, 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.
