engineering-conventions from zaxbyhub/opencode-swarm is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add zaxbyhub/opencode-swarm/engineering-conventions@git:20261012.097422c

Pins git:20261012.097422c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Guidelines and non-negotiable engineering invariants for modifying opencode-swarm. Load before architecture, plugin initialization, subprocess, tool registration, plan durability, .swarm storage, runtime portability, session/global state, guardrails/retry, chat/system message hooks, or release/cache changes. Authoritative source: AGENTS.md at the repo root and docs/engineering-invariants.md.

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

# Engineering Conventions for opencode-swarm

**Authoritative source:** [`AGENTS.md`](../../../AGENTS.md) at the repo root and [`docs/engineering-invariants.md`](../../../docs/engineering-invariants.md). This skill is a pointer + summary so the OpenCode agent loads the right invariants before touching dangerous areas. **Read `AGENTS.md` first.** When this skill conflicts with `AGENTS.md`, `AGENTS.md` wins.

## When to load this skill

Before changing shared/exported or runtime-contract code, use `repo_map` `impact_cone` to identify likely consumers, then verify them in direct source. Graph evidence is advisory only. If freshness is stale or inconclusive, confidence is low, source is missing, the language is unsupported/dynamic, the graph is absent, or the action fails, rely on direct source, searches, and executable evidence.

Load this skill **before** beginning implementation work that touches any of:

- `src/index.ts` (plugin entry / `initializeOpenCodeSwarm`)
- `src/hooks/*` (any hook that may run during init or QA review)
- `src/tools/*` (tool registration, working-directory anchoring, test_runner)
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zaxbyhub/opencode-swarm/engineering-conventions@sha256:86c65bbd27cf9c50

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.097422c, 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.
