Port an external Skill, paper, or methodology into an Ankole Deep Research Playbook. Use when adding or revising a Playbook under app/library/agent-plugins/deep-research/workspace-template/playbooks from an external research source.
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
# Port External Research into a Deep Research Playbook A port preserves the source's research semantics across an ownership boundary. The source supplies the method. Ankole supplies the research lifecycle. The Playbook contains only the rules that its type of research deliverable adds. ## 1. Lock the source Resolve the canonical source before you design the Playbook. Record its URL or path, revision or publication version, content hash, author, and applicable license or attribution terms. Prefer a raw, versioned file over a rendered repository page. For a new port from an external Skill whose reuse terms permit adaptation: 1. Save an immutable temporary snapshot of the exact source bytes. 2. Create the target Playbook as a byte-for-byte copy of that snapshot. 3. Prove the baseline with `cmp` and matching hashes. 4. Begin adaptation after both checks pass. For a paper, prose methodology, or source with narrower reuse terms, keep the exact publication as the temporary immutable source. Extract its method, definitions, evidence requirements, limitations, and source catalog. Use paraphrase and citation according to its reuse terms. …

How to install
mdr add agentbull/ankole/port-deep-research-playbook@sha256:a9b0e87b6b2545b0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260802.546cd32, 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.
