Embeds photo IPTC/EXIF/XMP metadata, caption, credit, alt text, license, AI-source label, GPS stripping, and C2PA credentials.
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
# Photo metadata ## Overview Metadata embedded in an image file travels with the file. Photo CMSs (Photo Mechanic, Lightroom, Capture One) and wire intake systems read a photo's caption, credit, and rights from its IPTC and XMP blocks, not from a separate document or the email it arrived in. If the caption, credit, alt text, and license are not *inside* the file, they are gone the moment the photo is downloaded, forwarded, or re-uploaded. One `exiftool` pass writes the EXIF, IPTC, and XMP layers together and leaves every other tag (camera settings, shot time) untouched. Modern software reads **XMP first**, legacy IPTC-IIM second, EXIF only for date and GPS, so write XMP everywhere and add IIM as a compatibility copy on JPEG/TIFF (HEIC, AVIF, and WebP have no IIM slot at all; see `reference.md`). …

How to install
mdr add jamditis/claude-skills-journalism/photo-metadata@sha256:50a2b4f2614889b0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260818.3e0e3a8, 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.
