License
a license file GitHub does not identify

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

# Repository Guidelines

Canonical instructions for every coding-agent harness: Claude Code imports
this file through `CLAUDE.md`, Codex reads it directly. Edit this file, not
`CLAUDE.md`. This is the **public** Rust scanner for Carrick; the private
companion `carrick-cloud` holds Lambdas, Terraform and the dashboard.

## Carrick

**If the answer is defined by another service — its endpoints, its real
request/response types, who consumes it, or any local type, constant, or
SDK helper that mirrors it — ask Carrick before you rely on anything
local.** Local copies of another service's contract drift and lie; the
producing service defines the contract, and if two definitions disagree,
the producer's definition wins. Load the Carrick tools now so they are ready at that
moment.

**Read the file you are editing. For anything that lives elsewhere in the
workspace (a helper, an endpoint, a consumer, a type), ask Carrick first,
then grep to confirm a location.** Run `search_by_intent` before writing
any helper, parser, validator, or domain function, even when you are sure
it is new. Grep can prove a name is absent; it can never prove the
behaviour is.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add carrick-tools/carrick/AGENTS.md@sha256:aba42f0b775cd2fe

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.e21abe3, 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.
