The quality bar for any agent working on agent definitions, skills, commands, hooks, AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, in any repo and any harness. Use at session start, before editing a file under .claude/agents, agents/, .claude/commands or any SKILL.md, before handing work back, and whenever choosing which model tier (Haiku, Sonnet, Opus, Fable) or effort level a task deserves. Carries the estate guardrails, the agent-file contract the linter enforces, the verification line every hand-back ends with…
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
# Agent hygiene > One file that says what "high standard" means for the people and agents who write the > files other agents run on. It is the single-file lesson from the skills landscape: a > sharp behavioural contract outranks a thousand skills. Everything here is checkable. ## When to use this Load it when the work touches the agentic surface itself: an agent definition (`.claude/agents/*.md`, `agents/*.md`, `*/AGENT.md`), a skill (`SKILL.md`), a command (`.claude/commands/*.md`), a hook, a settings or marketplace manifest, `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`. Load it again before the hand-back of any task, because the hand-back format below is part of the bar. Load it when deciding how much model to spend on a task. ## The bar, in one screen 1. **Think before writing.** State assumptions. If two readings of the ask exist, present both; do not pick silently. Turn the ask into a verifiable target before touching a file. 2. **Verify before claiming.** Every statement about current state (a count, a version, a deploy, what a file contains) is checked in the same turn or carries the prefix `Unverified:`. Your confidence is not evidence; the command output is. …

How to install
mdr add frankxai/agentic-creator-os/agent-hygiene@sha256:a7df3392a8d90ae8The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
