bootstrap skillA
bootstrap is agent-read markdown (skill) from elmayii/cdev: Use when a repository must be conditioned for continuous autonomous development (CDev) — a new repo, an existing one without docs/develop/, or a re-audit of one already conditioned; when the user asks to "bootstrap", "condition this repo for cdev", "prepare it so /cdev can work alone", "condicionar para cdev" — for any role (backend, frontend, other), with or without a folder of source docs..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Bootstrap (CDev)
Conditions one repository for autonomous execution with an **elevated autonomy threshold**: the
agent that later runs `/cdev` stops only at real blockages, never to ask "now what?". Two
mandatory halves — skipping the second is what makes autonomy dangerous:
- **Half A — Structure:** write the CDev machinery into the repo, adapted to what the repo
actually is.
- **Half B — Clarity:** audit how far it is clear *what* must be produced; clarity bounds
autonomy.
Idempotent: on an already conditioned repo it acts as an audit and proposes diffs, never
overwrites silently.
Base material: the package's `templates/` (placeholder contract in `templates/PLACEHOLDERS.md`;
zero unresolved `{{` at the end) and the role profiles in `profiles/` — resolve this skill's
base directory to its **real path first** (dereference junctions/symlinks), then both live at
`../../` from there.
## Resolve the role
Inspect before assuming: own schema/services and no UI → **backend** (`profiles/backend.md`);
consumes an external backend and renders UI → **frontend** (`profiles/frontend.md`); both or

How to install
mdr add elmayii/cdev/bootstrap@git:20260815.3aeef27mdr add elmayii/cdev/bootstrap@sha256:eb5fcf55777d0638Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
