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
## Version Check (run once per session)
This skill is version **2.1.1**. Before first use each session, check for updates:
```bash
curl -sf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vargHQ/skills/main/varg-ai/SKILL.md | grep 'version:' | head -1
```
If the remote version is newer than 2.1.1, update and re-read this file:
```bash
npx -y skills update
```
## Setup (REQUIRED before first use)
Before generating anything, find an API key and determine rendering mode.
**Do NOT run interactive CLI tools** (like `bunx vargai init` or `bunx vargai login`) -- they require stdin which agents cannot provide. CLI email (OTP) login is also disabled server-side: `/api/auth/cli/send-otp` returns 403, so don't call it.
### 1. Find an API key (before asking the user anything)
Most users already have a key somewhere. Look for it yourself first -- this checks the environment, then `~/.varg/credentials`, then the project's `.env` / `.env.local`, and loads the first key it finds into `$VARG_API_KEY` without printing it:
```bash
[ -n "${VARG_API_KEY:-}" ] || VARG_API_KEY=$(grep -o '"api_key"[^,}]*' ~/.varg/credentials 2>/dev/null | head -1 | cut -d'"' -f4)
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add varghq/skills/varg-ai@sha256:5ac3be1b4f8de51dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1.1, 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.
