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
# setup-ave-skills Run once first. 1. Read CLAUDE.md — understand record vs finding distinction 2. Read LANGUAGE.md — attack_class not vulnerability_type 3. Read ARCHITECTURE.md — the record/rule/fixture triangle 4. Read schema/ave-record.schema.json — the record contract ## Install Matt Pocock's skills ```bash npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/tdd npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/grill-with-docs npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/to-prd npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/handoff ``` ## Key context This repo is a STANDARD, not software. The unit of work is an AVE record plus its detection rule plus its positive/negative fixtures. confidence is NEVER in a record — records declare confidence_baseline.

How to install
mdr add aveproject/ave/setup-ave-skills@sha256:5466f84d6760f87fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260618.9c6c22c, 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.
