Lay a repository's agent harness: CLAUDE.md, hooks, docs/, gates, guards. Use when an agent repeats a mistake or a repository has none.
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
# Bootstrap a repository harness Governs: shared/scripts/scaffold.py, shared/scripts/probe_repo.py, shared/scripts/assess A harness is the machinery that puts the right knowledge in front of an agent at the moment it acts, and stops the actions that are cheaper to prevent than to review. Most repositories have none: they have a `CLAUDE.md` full of rules that are read once, paid every turn, and followed unevenly. **Everything this skill installs must work without it.** The test is literal: 1. Install, then uninstall the plugin. 2. Hand a fresh agent a real task. 3. The repository still teaches it how to work. Anything that only works while the plugin is present belongs somewhere else. That is independence, not disposal. A harness decays — the standing cost creeps up, a guard stops matching, a document falls behind the code it claims — and a repository cannot notice that about itself. Step 1 is worth re-running months later for exactly that, which is why the assessment is never copied into the tree: it reports on the repository rather than being part of it. ## Two rules everything else follows from **Knowledge lives in the repository, not in agent memory.** Memory is …

How to install
mdr add wangchangxin0809/cc-repo-harness/bootstrap-repo-harness@sha256:2c8c1ce68898dae6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.a42ab40, 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.
