coco-ship SKILL.md skillA
coco-ship from coco-research/coco is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add coco-research/coco/coco-ship@git:20260914.480426ePins git:20260914.480426e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when finished work needs to reach a coco-managed repository (coco-research/coco or similar) — verifies branch state, commits, pushes through the corporate DLP guard only when actually needed, opens a PR against main, waits for CI, and reports the result. Never merges, never pushes to main directly.
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
# Shipping to a CoCo-managed Repo
## Overview
Formalizes the branch → commit → guard-aware push → PR → CI-wait → report flow used for shipping
work to `coco-research/coco` (or any repo carrying the same corporate git-guard pre-push hook), so it
doesn't have to be re-derived by hand each time.
**Core principle:** Verify state → commit → detect whether the guard actually applies → confirm →
push → open PR → wait for real CI → report. Never merge. Never push to `main` directly, regardless of
how it's asked.
**Announce at start:** "I'm using the coco-ship skill to ship this branch."
This is the direct formalization of Option 2 ("Push and Create PR") in
`finishing-a-development-branch`, specialized for repos that carry the corporate git-guard. It
assumes implementation is already done and reviewed — it doesn't replace planning skills like
`brainstorming`, `writing-plans`, or GSD's phase workflow, and it doesn't run tests itself (that's
`finishing-a-development-branch`'s Step 1, or the project's own CI).
## The Process
### Step 1: Preflight
```bash
git status -sb
git branch --show-current
```

How to install
mdr add coco-research/coco/coco-ship@sha256:4dcbecb37155a60dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.480426e, 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.
