Use when auditing Claude Code or Codex settings and env vars against the latest docs to suggest tailored changes.
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
# Audit Agent Settings Scan the platform's docs exhaustively, cross-reference them against the user's real config, deliver a ranked report, and apply what the user picks. Tie every suggestion to a named user fact — tailored, not generic. Use `AskUserQuestion` in Claude Code, with multi-select for several picks. In Codex, use `request_user_input`, which has no multi-select: for several picks, ask one Apply/Skip question per item, three per call. Use plain text when the named tool is unavailable. ## 1. Pick the targets Use targets already specified by the user. Otherwise, offer the existing targets with this session's platform first: Claude Code settings, Codex config, or both. Read one reference per target: - [references/claude-code.md](references/claude-code.md) for Claude Code's docs mirrors, settings scopes, validator, dead-key probe, and gotchas. - [references/codex.md](references/codex.md) for the same on Codex. Done when every target has its reference loaded. ## 2. Fetch ground truth …

How to install
mdr add vinta/hal-9000/audit-agent-settings@sha256:50ffd65e65ea5dafThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.eaa1ff3, 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.
