contract SKILL.md skillA
contract from snowflake-labs/cocoplus is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add snowflake-labs/cocoplus/contract@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Outcome-driven Cortex function development — declares a behavioral contract before generation begins, enforces evidence-tiered proof before $ship, and defends against the self-oracle evaluation failure mode.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Objective
You are executing a CocoContract command. CocoContract exists to defend against the self-oracle problem: an agent that generates a function and evaluates it against criteria the same agent authored produces a tautological, self-confirming result regardless of the function's real-world behavior. CocoContract breaks this loop by requiring the behavioral standard — the outcome contract — to exist before generation begins, authored independently of the generation context.
Before proceeding, verify that `.cocoplus/` exists. If not, output: "CocoPlus is not initialized. Run `$pod init` first." Then stop.
## Commands
### `$contract init [function-name]`
Guide the developer through declaring a new outcome contract with an outcome oracle and acceptance checks:
1. **Persona** — a named role from the eight CocoPod personas (Cortex Architect, Data Engineer, ML Engineer, Analytics Engineer, Security Engineer, Data Scientist, DevOps Engineer, Business Analyst). Reject generic roles ("a developer", "an analyst") — the persona must identify a specific role in a specific workflow context.

How to install
mdr add snowflake-labs/cocoplus/contract@sha256:13eddc9b23677fa4The 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.
