git-submodule skillA
git-submodule is agent-read markdown (skill) from akillness/jeo-skills: Decide when Git submodules are the right external-repo boundary, then choose one safe operator flow: add and pin, bootstrap recursively, sync to the recorded commit, advance a tracked branch, edit inside the submodule without detached-HEAD surprises, remove cleanly, or configure CI/hosted-platform checkout constraints. Use when the user asks about `.gitmodules`, `git submodule`, recursive clone/setup, pointer updates, detached HEAD, private submodules in CI, GitHub Pages submodule limits, or sub.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Git Submodule Use this skill as the repository's **Git submodule choice and operator-workflow anchor**. The job is not to dump every `git submodule` command in one blob. The job is to: 1. decide whether submodule is the right boundary at all, 2. choose one operating mode, 3. keep pinned-commit, detached-`HEAD`, and hosted-platform consequences explicit, 4. emit the next safe commands only for that mode. Read [references/decision-matrix.md](references/decision-matrix.md) first. Read [references/update-and-detached-head.md](references/update-and-detached-head.md) when the request involves pointer updates, detached `HEAD`, or editing inside the submodule. Read [references/ci-and-automation.md](references/ci-and-automation.md) for CI/bootstrap expectations. Read [references/mode-packets-and-hosted-constraints.md](references/mode-packets-and-hosted-constraints.md) for mode-specific command packets and GitHub Pages / URL-drift constraints. If the user mainly needs: - **local branch/history cleanup, rebase, conflict recovery, or push safety** → use `git-workflow` - **Node package delivery from Git refs, tarballs, workspaces, or publish-first flows** → use `npm-git-install` …

How to install
mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/git-submodule@v2.1.0mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/git-submodule@sha256:79ac922e4a68a36fPin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
