context-engineering SKILL.md skillA

context-engineering from rohitg00/pro-workflow is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add rohitg00/pro-workflow/context-engineering@git:20260926.d6ee15f

Pins git:20260926.d6ee15f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Master the four operations of context engineering — Write, Select, Compress, Isolate. Manage token budgets, compaction strategies, and context partitioning to keep AI sessions sharp and efficient.

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

# Context Engineering

Four operations control everything about how context flows through an AI coding session. Master them and you control the quality of every response.

## The Four Operations

### 1. Write — Persist Info Outside Context

Move information out of the context window into durable storage so it survives compaction and session boundaries.

**Where to write:**

| Target | When | Example |
|--------|------|---------|
| CLAUDE.md | Permanent project rules | "Always use pnpm, never npm" |
| NOTES.md / scratchpad | Working state for current task | Architecture decisions, open questions |
| `.claude/memory/` | Learnings and patterns | `[LEARN]` rules from corrections |
| External files | Data too large for context | Test plans, migration checklists |

**Pattern — Scratchpad workflow:**
```text
1. Start complex task → create NOTES.md with goals and constraints
2. After research → write findings to NOTES.md
3. After compaction → NOTES.md survives, context does not
4. Resume → read NOTES.md to recover full state
```

### 2. Select — Retrieve Relevant Info

Pull the right information into context at the right time. Precision matters more than volume.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add rohitg00/pro-workflow/context-engineering@sha256:ee4284622a6157bd

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.d6ee15f, 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.
