egm-bootstrap SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
egm-bootstrap from google/elephant-goldfish-model is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add google/elephant-goldfish-model/egm-bootstrap@git:20261102.3dba384Pins git:20261102.3dba384 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Bootstrap directory README.md files across a repository subtree.
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
# EGM Peanuts and Hay Bootstrap (`egm-bootstrap`)
When running in Codex or ChatGPT Work, first read [Codex integration](../../docs/codex.md).
In Claude Code or Cowork, read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/claude.md` first.
## Overview
This skill automates the creation, correction, formatting, and correctness
verification of Elephant-and-Goldfish Model (EGM) compliant `README.md` files
across a directory tree. It establishes clear architectural contracts
(interfaces, invariants, and side effects) for both human developers and AI
assistants.
* **Peanuts**: Leaf-level Component Package READMEs containing specific file
contracts.
* **Hay**: Parent-level Repository Blueprints that roll up child interface
contracts into high-altitude indexes.
## Delegation
A Goldfish runs in a fresh context with no conversation history. Spawn each
subagent with your harness's subagent tool (Antigravity: `invoke_subagent`; Claude Code: `Agent`; Codex: `spawn_agent`). Each subagent is defined in `agents/<file>.md`, and its
frontmatter `name` (for example `egm-zoom-out`) is the subagent type to request
where your harness registers named subagents. Otherwise spawn a general-purpose

How to install
mdr add google/elephant-goldfish-model/egm-bootstrap@sha256:4a63ecf9db2a512fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.3dba384, 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.
