openrig-operating-model skillA
openrig-operating-model is agent-read markdown (skill) from mvschwarz/openrig: Use when you do not know WHERE something belongs: you learned a lesson and are unsure which file takes it; you are about to create a new doc, folder, or convention; you are asking "should this be a skill, a note, or a chain file?"; you inherited a seat and want to know what SHOULD exist; or you are about to duplicate knowledge that already has a home. Also the trace-to-root: how a seat orients by reading one filename at each level from where it stands up to the fleet..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

Authored context stays in addressed Markdown and manifests. Supported writers record semantic judgments; their read models remain rebuildable from those artifacts. This skill owns the structure: trees, chains, tracing, and placement of authored knowledge. Resolve installed context through its current library addresses and the project's selected loadout; a private corpus is not a required public dependency. Companion implementation assets in this skill's folder: - `templates/` and `scripts/` — starters and working tools, described in §8. ## 1. The model in one breath Everything lives on one of **two trees**, and every kind of context is a **chain**: the same filename at every level of a tree. To know anything, you **trace from where you are toward the root**, reading that one filename at each level — nearer levels refine or override farther ones. The **trace** (§5) is …

How to install
mdr add mvschwarz/openrig/openrig-operating-model@git:20260908.e4e15c6mdr add mvschwarz/openrig/openrig-operating-model@sha256:53ec4d9c7764f5bcPin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
