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

# Repository Guidelines

## Project Structure & Module Organization
This repository is a curated collection of Codex skills. The main directories are:

- `README.md` for the high-level project overview and roadmap.
- `skills/` for all skill definitions.

Each skill lives in its own folder and must include a `SKILL.md` with YAML frontmatter. Optional subfolders include `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` for helpers and deeper docs.

## Build, Test, and Development Commands
There is no global build or test system in this repo. Most work is documentation and skill authoring. When a skill provides scripts, run them directly and refer to its `SKILL.md` for usage.

## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
- Skill folder names use lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens (e.g., `object-storage-s3`).
- Keep `SKILL.md` concise and action-oriented; move long references into `references/`.
- Avoid extra docs inside skill folders (no README or changelog).
- Prefer ASCII text unless a skill’s domain requires otherwise.

## Testing Guidelines

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pingcap/agent-rules/AGENTS.md@sha256:f11d1dd268baa820

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260402.b298d60, 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.
