Discovers and invokes agent skills. Use when starting a session or when you need to discover which skill applies to the current task. This is the meta-skill that governs how all other skills are discovered and invoked.

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.

# Using Agent Skills

## Overview

Agent Skills is a collection of engineering workflow skills organized by development phase. Each skill encodes a specific process that senior engineers follow. This meta-skill helps you discover and apply the right skill for your current task.

## Skill Discovery

When a task arrives, identify the development phase and apply the corresponding skill:

```
Task arrives
    │
    ├── Don't know what you want yet? ──────→ interview-me
    ├── Have a rough concept, need variants? → idea-refine
    ├── New project/feature/change? ──→ spec-driven-development
    ├── Have a spec, need tasks? ──────→ planning-and-task-breakdown
    ├── Implementing code? ────────────→ incremental-implementation
    │   ├── UI work? ─────────────────→ frontend-ui-engineering

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jposluns/grc_library/addyosmani-using-agent-skills@sha256:31b8a621e2ef63e0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.8fbb737, 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.
