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 automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

How to install
mdr add jonathimer/devmarketing-skills/docs-as-marketing@sha256:f9a6ecfd899c0f19The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want.
