astropy SKILL.md skillA
astropy from ghosteken/agent-harness is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add ghosteken/agent-harness/astropy@git:20260721.efafd9cPins git:20260721.efafd9c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Astropy is the core Python package for astronomy, providing essential functionality for astronomical research and data analysis.
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
# Astropy ## Overview Astropy is the core Python package for astronomy, providing essential functionality for astronomical research and data analysis. Use astropy for coordinate transformations, unit and quantity calculations, FITS file operations, cosmological calculations, precise time handling, tabular data manipulation, and astronomical image processing. ## When to Use This Skill Use astropy when tasks involve: - Converting between celestial coordinate systems (ICRS, Galactic, FK5, AltAz, etc.) - Working with physical units and quantities (converting Jy to mJy, parsecs to km, etc.) - Reading, writing, or manipulating FITS files (images or tables) - Cosmological calculations (luminosity distance, lookback time, Hubble parameter) - Precise time handling with different time scales (UTC, TAI, TT, TDB) and formats (JD, MJD, ISO) - Table operations (reading catalogs, cross-matching, filtering, joining) - WCS transformations between pixel and world coordinates - Astronomical constants and calculations ## Quick Start ```python import astropy.units as u from astropy.coordinates import SkyCoord from astropy.time import Time from astropy.io import fits …

How to install
mdr add ghosteken/agent-harness/astropy@sha256:3c9dfd6e03645644The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.efafd9c, 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.
