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

# AGENTS.md — Castor

> **The vendor-neutral "README for machines."** This file is the canonical,
> machine-readable operating contract for any AI agent (Claude Code, Google
> Antigravity, Cursor, Codex, or a human) that reads, edits, tests, or
> optimizes this repository. It is the 2026 AAIF (Agentic AI Foundation)
> standard: a single source of truth that every agent persona must honor.
>
> **Precedence:** `AGENTS.md` > `CLAUDE.md` / `GEMINI.md` (persona-specific
> overlays) > `CONTRIBUTING.md` (human workflow) > `README.md` (marketing).
> If two files disagree, `AGENTS.md` wins and the discrepancy is a bug to file.

## 0. What This Repository Is

**Castor** is a local-first, **$0-token-cost** agent microkernel written in Rust that lets a
high-reasoning cloud orchestrator (the *Lead Architect*) drive a locally-served
peer programmer across any OpenAI-compatible serving engine (configured via pluggable
profiles: `llama.cpp`, `vLLM`, `SGLang`, `Ollama`, `LM Studio`, etc. — see [`docs/engine-profiles.md`](docs/engine-profiles.md))
to do code exploration, structural AST surgery, testing, and file editing — all inside a zero-trust sandbox.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add apatheticmioz/castor/AGENTS.md@sha256:c964c88241925096

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.f4e2034, 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.
