sync-vm-service-drivers SKILL.md skillA

sync-vm-service-drivers from flutter/dart-intellij-third-party is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add flutter/dart-intellij-third-party/sync-vm-service-drivers@git:20261007.4296a2b

Advance the Dart IntelliJ plugin's VM Service Java drivers by exactly one protocol version through an LLM-authored, user-reviewed, test-first workflow. Use to explain the next revision, add red tests, decide whether SDK-backed integration coverage is worthwhile, implement the driver changes, and prepare manual verification steps.

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

# Sync VM Service Drivers

Advance exactly one protocol version per invocation. The version declared by
`third_party/src/main/java/com/jetbrains/lang/dart/ide/runner/server/vmService/vmServiceDrivers/service/VmService.java`
is the current version; the first later revision in the Dart SDK's
`runtime/vm/service/service.md` history is the target. Do not jump directly to the latest revision.

This is an interactive red-green workflow. The review pauses below are mandatory: do not replace a
pause with an assumption that the user approves the tests or the next phase.

This skill is instruction-only. Do not use, restore, create, or depend on a code generator, audit
script, report bundle, schema, or manifest. The LLM must inspect the repository and SDK history
directly and author every test and production change.

## Establish the next-version change

Prefer the sibling `../sdk` checkout and use immutable SDK commits as evidence. Inspect its branch,
cleanliness, current commit, and relationship to remote `main` with read-only Git operations. Never
update a dirty, diverged, or non-`main` checkout. Ask before fast-forwarding a clean, stale `main`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add flutter/dart-intellij-third-party/sync-vm-service-drivers@sha256:d00108a73f441a0e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.4296a2b, 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.
