Replace with one sentence on what this skill does, then when the agent should use it. The agent decides whether to load the skill from this line, so be specific.

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

# Example skill

Rename the `example` directory and the `name` above to your skill's id
(lowercase letters, digits and hyphens). They must match.

Write the steps you actually follow, in the order you follow them. Good skills
usually have:

1. **When to use it** - the situation that triggers it.
2. **Inputs** - what the agent should gather first, from real sources.
3. **Steps** - concrete actions, with the checks that tell you each step worked.
4. **Output** - what the agent should hand back at the end.

Keep it short. If you cannot say where your agent would go wrong without this
skill, it probably belongs inside another skill.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add minimax-ai/mcode-stack/example@sha256:3eee436e8d8a1805

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.c889a19, 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.
