Runs `faf auto` to detect the stack, asks only for what it can''t detect (the goal and the why), scores the project.faf 0–100%, and `faf sync` writes the facts into CLAUDE.md. Use when someone wants Claude to know their project from the first message: "improve my CLAUDE.md", "set up project context", "Claude keeps forgetting my stack". Takes a CLAUDE.md from GOOD (it exists) to BETTER (backed by a scored project.faf). The quickest path; faf-go fills the last gaps, faf-expert goes deep.

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.

# FAF Context — Give the AI What It Needs

**AI writes its best code when it has your project's context. This skill helps you hand it over — fast, and to 100%.**

`.faf` is an **IANA-registered context format** (`application/vnd.faf+yaml`) — a typed, portable file *you own*, readable by any AI (no bespoke manifest, no vendor lock-in). The whole point is one number: **AI-readiness, 0–100%.** At **100% ✪** the AI starts every session already knowing your project — no re-explaining, no guessing. This skill is the *builder's* path to that number: minimum typing, maximum context.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add wolfe-jam/faf-skills/faf-context@sha256:7cc69b2d0bbe00b9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.680ca44, 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.
