Arthur onboarding sub-skill — Step 3: Set up an Arthur Task (create or select). Reads/writes .arthur-engine.env.
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
# Arthur Onboard — Step 3: Set Up Arthur Task
**Goal:** Establish `ARTHUR_TASK_ID` in `.arthur-engine.env`.
## Read State
```bash
cat .arthur-engine.env 2>/dev/null || echo "(no state file)"
```
Parse `ARTHUR_ENGINE_URL`, `ARTHUR_API_KEY`, and `ARTHUR_TASK_ID` from the output.
**State write helper:**
```bash
STATE_FILE=".arthur-engine.env"
grep -v '^ARTHUR_TASK_ID=' "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null > /tmp/ae_env_tmp && mv /tmp/ae_env_tmp "$STATE_FILE" || true
echo "ARTHUR_TASK_ID=$TASK_ID" >> "$STATE_FILE"
```
---
## If ARTHUR_TASK_ID Exists
Confirm reuse with user and exit this skill (task step done).
---
## Select or Create a Task
List existing tasks:
```bash
curl -s \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ARTHUR_API_KEY" \
"$ARTHUR_ENGINE_URL/api/v2/tasks" | \
python3 -c "
import sys, json
d = json.load(sys.stdin)
tasks = d.get('tasks') or d.get('data') or []
tasks = [t for t in tasks if not t.get('is_system_task')]
for t in tasks:
print(f' {t[\"id\"]}: {t[\"name\"]}')
"
```
Show the list and ask: "Select an existing task, or create a new one?"
To create a task:
```bash
TASK_ID=$(curl -s -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ARTHUR_API_KEY" \

How to install
mdr add arthur-ai/arthur-engine/arthur-onboard-task@sha256:f3b4071ef8598c8aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
