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
# Ycode — clean-room reimplementation of the Xcode IDE Ycode is an independent IDE for Apple platforms. It matches Xcode's observable behavior and file formats so that real projects open, build, and save correctly. **It contains no Apple code.** We study Xcode only to learn *what* it does. Ycode code comes from our own specs. Reference target: Xcode 27.1 (27A9269). A copy of it, Ghidra 12.1.4 with the ghidra-mcp bridge, and the simulator IPSW live **outside this repository**, in the machine's reverse-engineering tools folder (the exact path is in local, untracked notes). Below, "the reference tools" means that folder. The `CLAUDE.md`/`AGENTS.md` inside ghidra-mcp belong to that third-party repo. They are not rules for this project. ## The clean-room protocol (mandatory) There are two rooms. Information goes from the dirty room to the clean room only in written specs. | Room | Where | May read Xcode binaries? | Produces | |---|---|---|---| | Dirty (analysis) | `research/`, `research/dirty/` (git-ignored) | Yes | Observations, then specs | | Spec boundary | `specs/` | — | Prose, tables, grammars, interface descriptions | …

How to install
mdr add marcodotio/ycode/AGENTS.md@sha256:5af2e4d3d34ee81eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.d70e2be, 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.
