Check Compound Engineering's tools and repo config and fix what it finds, scaffold a Compound Pack with `pack:<id>`, or draft and refresh coding standards and review docs from pull request history. Use when setting up or diagnosing Compound Engineering, or when creating or updating CODING_STANDARDS.md or REVIEW.md, including on a schedule.
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
# Compound Engineering Setup ## Non-interactive runs Run non-interactively when the arguments contain `mode:non-interactive`, or when the request makes unattended intent unmistakable, such as a scheduled or CI job, or a caller asking for a run "headless", "unattended", or "without questions". "Automatically" alone is not that signal: it says when setup runs, not whether anyone can answer. When the signal is absent or unclear, run interactively. Strip the token before reading the rest of the arguments. A non-interactive run asks nothing and follows `references/non-interactive.md`, which replaces every offer, question, and approval in this file and its references. ## Interaction Method In an interactive run, ask each question below with the host's blocking question tool, and never silently skip or auto-configure. Read `references/communication.md` from this skill's directory before your first offer. It says how to reach that tool and what each offer, question, and preview must tell the user. ## Pack Scaffold …

How to install
mdr add everyinc/compound-engineering-plugin/ce-setup@sha256:28407a23ab3ab92eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.4ada0a0, 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.
