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
# Hair grooming The execution model is in `blender-core`. Hair physics details are in `blender-simulation`, and look-dev in `blender-lighting-lookdev`. ## One call each ``` scripts/groom.py -- --surface Head --mask Scalp --length 0.15 --children 150000 --clump 0.5 scripts/groom.py -- --surface Head --mask Beard --length 0.02 --droop 0.2 --curl 0.004 --melanin 0.9 --name Beard scripts/groom.py -- --surface Body --length 0.025 --droop 0.3 --clump 0.3 --name Fur scripts/groom.py -- --cards Hair --card-count 150 --atlas-res 2048 --out //textures # game hair cards ``` ## How pros groom 1. **Surface first**: the scalp is a mesh (or the head itself) with **UVs** (hair attaches by UV) and a **vertex group** painted where hair grows. That group becomes the density mask, so soft edges give a natural hairline. 2. **Guides → children**: a few hundred to a few thousand guides carry the shape, and thousands of interpolated children give the volume. Style the guides, never the children. 3. **Shape in layers**: length, then clump (strands gather into locks), then curl/wave, then frizz/noise, then profile (thin tips). Keep each a separate modifier you can toggle. …

How to install
mdr add el4cteo/blender-skills/blender-hair-grooming@sha256:c65d3d88ffca70a0The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, 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.
