Use when authoring or reviewing a hands-on demo, tour, or walkthrough notebook (`#%%` percent-format or Jupyter) that demonstrates a feature, library, or API and doubles as semi-interactive documentation. Triggers: "write a demo notebook", "build a feature demo", "demo this library/API", "a notebook to walk through X", "interactive docs for this feature". Not for production/analysis notebooks or pure asyncio event-loop mechanics (see python-notebooks-async).

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

# Interactive Notebook Demo

## Overview

A demo notebook does two jobs at once, and must do both:

- **Orient** — it doubles as semi-interactive documentation for a feature.
  Read top to bottom, it should leave the reader understanding the motivating problem, the design, the mechanism, and the data flow — the narrative layer over the code.
- **Interact** — a reader can run one operation, read the **real** output, edit a literal, and re-run, building hands-on understanding by poking at it.
  The cells are the examples; git holds the original, so they can change anything and revert.

The orientation is _what_ to teach; the interaction is _how_ to teach it.
A notebook that interacts beautifully but explains nothing is a toy; one that explains but only runs as opaque blocks is a slideshow.
Clear both bars.

Two failure modes make a notebook _performative_ (a script that happens to have cell markers) rather than interactive:

1. **Wrapper functions.**
   Grouping operations into `async def demo_function(...)` and calling them as opaque blocks.
   The reader can only run the whole block; they cannot step into a single call and tweak it.
2. **Terse labels.**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ahgraber/skills/interactive-notebook-demo@sha256:f6a115f442f88adc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.209d97b, 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.
