Generate and run validation cases for a trusted skill, then inspect a saved report of results and assertion provenance.
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
# skill-compiler
Use when developing a trusted skill or checking its documented behavior.
Requires Bash, Python 3, jq, llm, shellm, and skills. Model calls use normal llm
configuration and can incur charges. This produces validation reports, not
trained adapters or automatically loaded examples.
```bash
sc="${SKILLS_DIR:-./.skills}/skill-compiler/skill-compiler"
"$sc" compile --skill shellm --num-tests 3 --max-iterations 5
"$sc" show --skill shellm
"$sc" pool --skill shellm
"$sc" clean --skill shellm
```
This skill requires explicit installation; default agents do not receive it.
The executable is not on PATH. See [README.md](README.md) for installation and
source-checkout usage. Use `--teacher-model` only to
override the teacher's configured model. Defaults are up to eight cases and fifteen
iterations per case.
Both compile and pool can execute a skill script with no arguments and with
--help. Probes and tests use disposable state and work directories. Known
messaging/live-store skills and aliases are refused. This is not an OS sandbox:
only run trusted skills, since credentials and filesystem access are not revoked.

How to install
mdr add laude-institute/headlong/skill-compiler@sha256:db46a964d28598ddThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.3e3dcef, 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.
