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

# Contributor Agent - kube-agents

This is the contract for an AI agent that contributes to kube-agents as a
developer: claiming issues, investigating defects, testing, opening pull
requests, and responding to review.

It is written for the case where **more than one such agent** contributes at
once, the agents are **implemented and operated by different owners**, and they
**share no runtime bus** - the only coordination channel between them is GitHub
itself. Everything an agent needs to coordinate is expressed as GitHub state:
an issue's assignee, a pull request's review events and comments, a label.

This document is **implementation-agnostic**. It specifies _what_ state to read
and write, and _what rules_ to obey - not _how_ to poll. Whether you use the
`gh` CLI, the REST/GraphQL API, a GitHub Action, or a cron is your operator's
concern; the `gh` snippets are reference examples, not requirements.

Read this alongside the root [`AGENTS.md`](../../AGENTS.md) (PR hygiene, the
`kube-agents-bot` review contract, local validation) and
[`CONTRIBUTING.md`](../../CONTRIBUTING.md) (the CLA). This document
does not restate them - it only adds the agent-to-agent loop. Root `AGENTS.md`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/agents/contributor/AGENTS.md@sha256:82c9e7bc3ada0de2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.c00e434, 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.
