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
# Factory instance operating guide This repository is a **Factory instance**. It owns local configuration, policies, packs, and the work that adapts Factory to this organization. The kernel is the pinned `@watt-mind/factory` dependency; do not copy or edit its source here. ## Before changing this instance 1. Keep changes to local configuration, local packs, and instance docs in this repository. 2. Keep schedules disabled until an operator has reviewed the loop and its admission criteria. 3. Never put credentials in `config/`; inject secrets through the runtime environment instead. 4. When the change belongs in the reusable kernel, open a proposal or pull request against `watt-mind/factory` rather than carrying a local kernel fork. Read [`README.md`](README.md) and the installed kernel's [`docs/instances.md`](node_modules/@watt-mind/factory/docs/instances.md) before enabling a loop or adding a pack.

How to install
mdr add watt-mind/factory/templates/starter/AGENTS.md@sha256:b26b7a3218724cacThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260820.253c3d9, 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.
