Detects R, Python, or mixed-language signals in repo files and emits a language handoff. Use when a skill needs language evidence or the user asks the repo's stack.
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
# Repository Language Detection ## Skill Value - **Problem it solves:** Setup and workflow routing need repo evidence before asking users about language preference. - **Use when:** Another skill needs language evidence, or the user asks what stack the repo appears to use. - **Output:** __CE_LANG__ with primary, secondary, and source fields. - **Ask only if:** No user question normally; detection is evidence-only. - **Do not do:** Do not treat detection as final user preference when later IDE or explicit user choices narrow the stack. - **Interaction:** No user question normally; proceed from the provided inputs and local evidence. Detects whether the current repository is primarily `python`, `r`, `both`, or `unknown` using file-system and code-pattern signals only. Do not ask the user to choose a language in this skill. SAS/Stata signals do not become `primary` values; when they dominate, emit `primary=unknown` and recommend `method-sas-stata`. ## When this skill activates - CLIF profile is active (`__CE_CLIF__ active=true`) and downstream skills need language-specific recipes - `method-setup` is running and needs a language default without asking …

How to install
mdr add sajor2000/methodsmith/method-language-detect@sha256:1dd03c23dc296f31The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.73e5a37, 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.
