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

# AGENTS.md

This file is the entry point for an LLM agent operating on this repository directly (cloned, opened in
an editor, or handed a working directory), as distinct from [`README.md`](README.md), which is written
for a human reader, and [`skills/plt-fill-template/SKILL.md`](skills/plt-fill-template/SKILL.md), which packages the same library for an agent framework
that loads skills by convention. If you are an agent and you are reading this file first, everything
below is enough to select a bundle, size it to your context budget, and fill it correctly without
reading anything else first.

The one fact to hold onto while reading the rest of this file: **nothing here has been proven to work.**
Every bundle is researched and gate-green, and none of them is claimed to be more than that.
Efficacy has been measured five times: four runs returned **VOID**, and one, on
2026-09-03, cleared every validity gate on **two scenarios of one bundle** and found no measurable
difference in whether a reader could answer their questions. The latest, on 2026-10-23, found documents
written with the template scoring below the control on criteria drawn from neither the template nor its
guide. See

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/product-lifecycle-templates/AGENTS.md@sha256:eb5157b7f2a6ab60

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.d4d1728, 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.
