start SKILL.md skillA

start from itsomidkarami/kraft is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add itsomidkarami/kraft/start@git:20261004.8097c6f

Pins git:20261004.8097c6f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Creates a new Kraft Lite chain for the work and hands it to the first node. Use when the human asks to begin new work under Kraft Lite; continuing an existing chain is `kraft-lite:next`.

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

# Starting a chain

If `.kraft-lite/registry.yaml` does not exist, invoke `kraft-lite:init` first. Do
not invent bindings, and do not start without it: `start` only warns when the
registry is missing. If `start` exits with "hooks with no registry binding",
rerun `kraft-lite:init` or edit the registry.

Before starting, run `python3 "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/kl.py" chains`. `start` never checks
for an existing chain and will create a second one beside it, so if one is not
`done`, ask the human whether they mean to continue it (`kraft-lite:next`).

    python3 "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/kl.py" start --title "<the work>"

`$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` is set when this loads as a plugin. If it is unset, `kl.py`
is two directories above this file - use that path instead of an empty one.
Every command here runs on `python3` 3.10 or newer; if it is missing or older, tell the
human and stop, because Lite has no other runner.

To run a chain other than the packaged default, add `--chain <path-to-chain.json>`.
The template is frozen against this run, so editing that file later does not
retarget a chain already in flight.

It prints the chain id and which backend holds the state, for example
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add itsomidkarami/kraft/start@sha256:994f7dccb699d672

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.8097c6f, 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.
