Use when finding or inspecting current official New Zealand Regulatory Analysis Summaries (RAS), Regulatory Impact Statements or Assessments (RIS/RIA), supplementary or cost-recovery analyses, quality assessments, Cabinet documents, and linked PDFs published by the Ministry for Regulation or Ministry for the Environment.
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
# NZ regulatory analysis ## Goal Discover current official regulatory-analysis publication pages and inspect their linked PDFs. The skill reads the Ministry for Regulation's RAS index and the Ministry for the Environment's Cabinet-paper/RIS index. It classifies records without downloading or interpreting PDF contents. ## Use this when - Finding current official RAS, RIS, RIA, supplementary analysis reports, or cost recovery impact statements. - Locating independent, departmental, agency, or otherwise-labelled quality assessments. - Finding the Cabinet papers and minutes linked from an environmental regulatory package. - Producing source URLs and retrieval timestamps before a policy comparison. ## Do not use this for - Recovering deleted, superseded, or archived publications. - Claiming that a search result is the complete government-wide corpus. - Treating a document's presence as proof that its analysis or quality assurance is adequate. - Summarising PDF contents: this CLI returns links and labels but does not fetch PDFs. - Circumventing CAPTCHA, access challenges, robots controls, or request blocks. ## Preferred workflow …

How to install
mdr add thecolab-ai/.skills/nz-regulatory-analysis@sha256:35492efec424fe1bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.f762e11, 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.
