Draft a first-contact orientation comment for a first-time contributor on a newly opened issue or PR on the configured `<upstream>` repo. Detects first-time authorship via the GitHub `author_association` field and drafts a welcome with contributing-guide link, community-norm pointers, and expected next steps. Waits for explicit maintainer confirmation before posting. Does not post for repeat contributors.
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.

## Pre-flight — is this project set up?
Do this **first, before anything else in this skill**, and do it silently.
One command answers it and carries its own rules; there is nothing else to
read.
Run the checker with this skill's own frontmatter `name:` and
`surface_hash:`, and one `--requires` for each `requires_config:` entry:
```bash

How to install
mdr add apache/magpie/welcome@sha256:b03301f98c4084f8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.5395957, 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.
