corpus-maintenance SKILL.md skillA

corpus-maintenance from richlander/dotnet-inspect is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add richlander/dotnet-inspect/corpus-maintenance@git:20260808.c4db43c

Pins git:20260808.c4db43c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use for authored-source correspondence corpus maintenance: verify the vendored CIVIL/EVIL snapshot for drift against upstream, re-harvest or re-pin it, run the offline benchmark, and decide when to advance the pin.

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

# Corpus maintenance

Use this skill when the user asks to maintain, refresh, drift-check, re-pin, or
benchmark the **authored-source correspondence corpus** — the vendored source
oracle behind the decompiler's offline benchmark. Produce a short status report:
whether the pinned snapshot still corresponds to upstream, whether it needs a
re-harvest or a pin bump, and what the benchmark says about the current
decompiler.

Run from the repository root. The corpus tooling is the `DecompilerHarness`
(`tools/DecompilerHarness`), a dev tool, not the shipped `dotnet-inspect`
product; run it with `dotnet run --project tools/DecompilerHarness -c Release --`.

## What the corpus is

The corpus is a vendored JSONL where each row is a real method identity plus a
checksum-verified authored member body captured through SourceLink at harvest
time. It lets the benchmark grade source correspondence fully offline, so
`SourceUnavailable` becomes a drift signal rather than an expected network
outcome. It has two halves:

- **CIVIL** (Curated Index of Varied IL) — `civil/corpus.jsonl`, harvested from
  the 14 pinned assemblies in `eng/prepare-decompiler-corpus.sh`. This is the
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add richlander/dotnet-inspect/corpus-maintenance@sha256:4778c38fd7c0ac80

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.c4db43c, 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.
