Author and structure practical Robium skills without unnecessary context or ceremony.
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 author Treat every loaded line as a cost. A skill earns that cost by changing an ordinary coding agent's decision. ## Start with the trigger - Give the skill one clear job and a short name that matches its directory. - Write a brief description that says what the skill helps accomplish and distinguishes it from its closest neighbors. - Do not turn the description into a keyword inventory. Test realistic user requests when the boundary is uncertain. - If an existing skill already owns the decision, deepen it instead of adding another trigger surface. ## Write the entrypoint - Frontmatter contains only `name` and `description`. - Organize `SKILL.md` around one useful mental model, not a universal template. - Prefer short, natural bullets that a human can scan without decoding process language. - Assume the agent can already code, search a repository, and read ordinary documentation. Keep only constraints, choices, and failure patterns that materially improve its work. - Avoid fixed sequences unless order protects correctness, safety, money, or external state. - Mention another skill only where evidence crosses that skill's boundary. …

How to install
mdr add robium-ai/robium/skill-author@sha256:7e54201e66e53af8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.498ea4e, 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.
