Deep-research a topic and build a structured Pulse Canvas workspace with approved research depth, source-backed findings, progressive or final canvas creation, spatially organized frames, content nodes, and connections. Use when the user asks to bootstrap, generate, research, organize, or build an AI-created canvas.

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

# Canvas Bootstrap

Turn a topic into a source-backed Pulse Canvas workspace. This skill is an orchestrator: use a user-approved research skill or the bundled `canvas-deep-research` protocol for evidence gathering, then use `pulse-canvas` layout commands for geometry.

This version is for agents that reach the canvas through the `pulse-canvas` CLI. The Canvas Agent inside Pulse Canvas has its own native-tool version of this skill.

## Core Contract

- Ask for research depth first unless the user already provided it.
- After depth is chosen, show a research plan and wait for user modification or approval.
- Do not start substantial research before the plan is approved.
- Do not create canvas nodes before approval. Optional live-board creation also requires approval.
- If the user explicitly names a different Deep Research skill, tool, or workflow, use that approved research capability for evidence gathering.
- Otherwise use `canvas-deep-research` when available. If it is unavailable, follow the same source-backed protocol directly.
- Keep content and layout separate: research determines what belongs on the canvas; layout tools determine where it goes.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hua-bang/pulse-agent/canvas-bootstrap@sha256:5417c1e57008e149

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.0be67cc, 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.
