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

# Contributing to Gangsta

## What This Is

Gangsta is an AI agentic skills framework for spec-driven development. Skills are behavior-shaping code, not documentation. They must be tested rigorously.

## What Will NOT Be Accepted

- Third-party dependencies (this is a zero-dependency package)
- Changes that weaken Omerta governance rules
- Skills without adversarial pressure testing
- Bulk PRs with unrelated changes bundled together
- "Improvements" that add complexity without clear value
- Narrative storytelling in skill content (skills are instructions, not blog posts)

## Skill Changes

Every skill change requires:
1. Baseline testing: Run a pressure scenario WITHOUT the change, document behavior
2. Change testing: Run the same scenario WITH the change, document improvement
3. Include both results in your PR

## The Laws Apply to Contributors Too

- Omerta Law 3 (Rule of Truth): Every claim in a PR must be verifiable
- Omerta Law 5 (Spec is Law): Changes must align with the framework design spec

## The Constitutional Floor

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kucherenko/gangsta/AGENTS.md@sha256:632b60c9403a0086

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260712.dd0012f, 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.
