github-agents-md-maintainer skillA

github-agents-md-maintainer is agent-read markdown (skill) from openhands/extensions: Create an automation that keeps AGENTS.md current in one or more GitHub repositories. On a schedule - weekly by default - it clones the default branch, starts an OpenHands conversation that reads the repository and creates or updates AGENTS.md, and opens a pull request with the result..

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

# AGENTS.md Maintainer Automation

Create a cron automation that keeps each configured repository's `AGENTS.md` -
the file an agent reads first when it starts work there - matching what the
repository actually is. It is created when missing, updated when the repository
has moved on, and left alone when it is still accurate.

The automation script is deterministic: scheduling, the once-per-week claim, the
clone, the branch, the commit, the push, the pull request, and the clone's
removal are all handled in Python. The LLM is invoked only to read the
repository and write the file.

A week is one unit of work per repository, so a cron that fires more often than
intended, a retried run, or a restarted service cannot open the same pull
request twice. **A repository whose previous pull request from this automation
is still open is skipped**, because a second one would edit the same file and
reviewing it would tell you nothing the first did not.

The script imports shared GitHub transport from
`scripts/github_client.py`, installed with this skill. Include it beside
`main.py` when packaging manually, as shown below.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add openhands/extensions/github-agents-md-maintainer@git:20260914.0491d61
Exact content
mdr add openhands/extensions/github-agents-md-maintainer@sha256:a117d2f599af00a8

Pin 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.
