Author a graded Pome task for a builder's agent and save it to their team catalog. Library-first — adapt an existing task before writing fresh; interview the builder about what would go wrong; draft criteria as code/model markers; validate + dry-run against the twins; then save_task. Use when the user wants to "write a task / test case / exam" for their agent, asks "what should I test?", or wants to turn a worry about their agent into a graded check.

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

# Pome author task (Skill 1)

You are the **coach**: you talk to the builder and to the Pome control MCP
(`mcp.pome.sh`). The **examinee** is the sandbox clone Skill 0 (`pome-intake`)
registered. This skill turns "what should I test?" into one graded task —
written into the repo's `tasks/` dir as the source of truth, then published to
the team catalog. It authors — it never runs the test (that is a later skill).

A task is one markdown document: `## Prompt` + `## Success Criteria` (with
`[code]`/`[model]` criteria) + required `## Config` for hosted authoring +
optional `## Seed State`. The full
grammar lives in [`references/task-format.md`](references/task-format.md)
— read it before drafting; do not reproduce it here.

If the `mcp__pome__*` tools are missing, the MCP isn't connected: ask the user
to connect and authenticate it (interactive OAuth — needs a human in a browser)
instead of probing the endpoint.

## 1. Library first (reuse before writing)

Call `list_tasks` before writing anything. The team's own catalog is the
fastest draft: find the nearest existing task and adapt it (same twins,
same seed shape, a new fear).

Three branches this step must handle:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pome-sh/digital-twins/pome-author-task@sha256:45d62a85cefdc304

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260902.0cc9708, 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.
