Skill folder layout, SKILL.md frontmatter, naming conventions, and build-time flavors.
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
Every skill under `skills/uipath-<kebab-case>/` must have a `SKILL.md` with valid YAML frontmatter: `name` (matching folder name exactly) and `description` (under 1024 characters — repo cap; Claude Code's hard truncation for `description` + `when_to_use` is 1,536 chars). The `description` must front-load skill identity and unique file/domain signals (e.g. `.cs`, `.xaml`, `.flow`, `servo`) within the first ~100 characters. Use compact `→` redirects for commonly confused sibling skills (e.g. `For XAML→uipath-rpa`). Start with `[PREVIEW]` for unstable skills. Do NOT use verbose `TRIGGER when:` / `DO NOT TRIGGER when:` clauses or nest fields under `metadata:` — both cause Claude Code to drop the field. SKILL.md body order: Title → When to Use → Critical Rules (numbered) → Workflow/Quick Start → Reference Navigation → Anti-patterns. Reference files use kebab-case; guides end with `-guide.md`; templates end with `-template.md` or `-template.<ext>`. Skills must be self-contained — no cross-skill references. Full reference: `.claude/rules/skill-structure.md`. Before changing flavor markers, sparse overrides, generic discovery, package construction, publishing, or flavor CI, read …

How to install
mdr add uipath/skills/.cursor/rules/skill-structure.mdc@sha256:cab5907aa5132762The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260807.5db9b3e, 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.
