Use when a coding agent encounters likely upstream blockers and must find related workspace repositories, files, and probable root causes.

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

# Metagit Upstream Discovery Skill

Use this skill when the current repo does not appear to contain the full fix and related repositories may hold the source issue.

## Supported Use Cases

- Missing Terraform input in a shared module
- Docker base image/version mismatch across repos
- Shared infrastructure definitions causing local failures
- CI pipeline breakages tied to upstream templates/workflows

## Local Script Wrapper (Use First)

Use this token-efficient wrapper for upstream discovery tasks:
- `./scripts/upstream-scan.sh [root_path] "<query>" [preset] [max_results]`

Output format:
- compact status line
- top ranked repo hints (`hint`)
- top search file hits (`hit`)

## Workflow

1. Read workspace repository map from active `.metagit.yml`.
2. Run `metagit_workspace_index` to verify repo availability and sync state.
3. Use `metagit_workspace_search` with category preset (`terraform`, `docker`, `infra`, `ci`).
4. Use `metagit_upstream_hints` to rank candidate repositories and files.
5. Return a concise action plan:
   - top candidate repos
   - likely files/definitions
   - whether sync is needed before deeper analysis

## Search Strategy

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add metagit-ai/metagit-cli/metagit-upstream-scan@sha256:13b29959192a9f5d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260527.5b1cf19, 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.
