Find, use, and troubleshoot official Runpod Pod templates, including ComfyUI workflow model metadata repair. For creating or optimizing Dockerfiles and application template projects use runpod-build-template; deploy through runpod-mcp or runpodctl.
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
# Official Runpod templates For explicit source packaging or template optimization, use [runpod-build-template](../runpod-build-template/SKILL.md). For ordinary workload deployment, **prefer an official template over building an image.** Runpod maintains prebuilt images for common workloads; deploying one is a create + poll, with no SSH install step. This skill is the reference for *what those images actually are*. It does not manage infrastructure — deploy with **runpod-mcp** (if connected) or **runpodctl**. ## Terms — "template" vs the Hub Two different products share the word "Hub", and conflating them derails discovery: | Term | What it is | Runs as | Discover with | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **Pod template** (this skill) | A saved pod config — image + ports + disk + env. The official ones appear on Console **Hub template pages** (`console.runpod.io/hub/template/<id>`) | a **pod** | `runpodctl template list --type official` / `template search` · REST `GET /v2/catalog/templates` | …

How to install
mdr add runpod/runpod-plugins-official/runpod-templates@sha256:b6dcab0d715de51cThe line at the top of this page pins the label "1.8.0" # x-release-please-version, 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.
