Fires when a fellow proposes bringing an external/market skill into the studio repo — "found a skill for X on skills.sh", "should we add this market skill", "ingest the good parts of <repo/skill>", "there's a public skill that does Y", "pull this skill in", "vet this skill from the ecosystem". Produces an Ingestion Decision Record plus a FOLD / SUPERSEDE / REJECT / ADD-NEW decision and the concrete diff into an existing studio skill. NOT for authoring a brand-new proprietary skill from scratch…

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

# Market Skill Ingestion

## What it does

Turns "here's a good public skill" into one of four decisions and, in the common case, a diff. A market skill is raw material, not a shelf item. This skill extracts the load-bearing value, finds where it already belongs in the studio set, and either folds it in, supersedes a weaker incumbent, rejects it, or (rarely) admits it as new surface. The output is a filled Ingestion Decision Record (`template.md`) and the concrete change to a target studio skill — never a copied folder.

## The rule

**Every market skill is, by default, folded into an existing studio skill or rejected. It is never added as new surface, and never vendored wholesale.**

The studio optimises for a small premium set. [Fact] Every skill Claude can load costs context for every fellow on every session. So net-new surface has to earn that recurring cost, not just be "good in isolation". The generic instinct is to `npx skills add` and drop the folder in a category. That is exactly the noise this skill exists to stop. [Fact] `skills/product/product-manager-skills/` is a full external repo vendored wholesale — README, CHANGELOG, LICENSE, `package.json`, `bin/`, `docs/`…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add the-utopia-studio/skills/market-skill-ingestion@sha256:24161b3b7e7b4ecc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260806.880fd29, 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.
