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

Guidance for AI agents (and people) working in this repository.

## What this is

The **verve** skill for AI coding agents - strip AI tells from prose and put a human voice back, in British or American English. It follows the [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io) layout (`skills/<name>/SKILL.md`) and ships as a [Claude Code plugin](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins).

## Layout

```
.claude-plugin/plugin.json      # plugin manifest
skills/verve/SKILL.md           # the skill (agent-facing instructions)
skills/verve/references/        # the tell catalogue, wordlists, tone presets and over-correction, varieties, audience, overshare, preferences, worked examples
install.sh / install-codex.sh   # local symlink installers (Claude / Codex)
prompts/                        # paste-in messages: install, and a repo prose audit
evals/                          # the corpus, its runner, and committed runs - not shipped, not installed
docs/design/                    # dated design records: what was decided and why
docs/research/                  # decision research, one folder per run; index.md is the dispatcher
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dbhq-uk/verve-skill/AGENTS.md@sha256:9f0ac06892028968

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.6f9afb9, 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.
