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

# Maintainer Agent Guide

This directory is public maintainer guidance for agents working on `nix-openclaw`.
It is not consumer setup documentation and must not contain private deployment state.

## Boundaries

- Keep consumer onboarding in `README.md`, templates, and module docs.
- Keep private deployments, bots, hosts, local worktrees, tokens, and personal automation details out of this repo.
- If a private deployment exposes a public packaging bug, fix the public package here and keep deployment-specific repair elsewhere.
- Treat `README.md` as the product direction source of truth.

## Read Order

1. `packaging.md` for Nix-owned package invariants.
2. `release-policy.md` for the split-track publishing invariant.
3. `automation.md` for the maintainer repair loop.
4. `gates.md` for verification and CI expectations.
5. Root `AGENTS.md` for repo-wide rules.

## Maintainer Workflow

- Work on `main` by default and push small, surgical commits directly to `main` when maintainer policy allows it.
- Use branches only when a maintainer asks, direct push is blocked, or a disposable local experiment is needed.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add openclaw/nix-openclaw/maintainers/AGENTS.md@sha256:fd19c2e2e749505b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260506.5e186c1, 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.
