Draft a well-formed new skill (a SKILL.md scaffold, optionally with scripts/references) from a described recurring need, for human review and approval. Use whenever a repeated workflow gap has no existing skill covering it, when someone wants to propose or create a new skill or capability, or when an agentic system detects a recurring problem that warrants a brand-new skill rather than editing an existing one. Domain-general — works for any modeling or workflow domain; SWMM is just one example.
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
# Skill author Turn a description of a recurring need into a **draft skill** that a human can review and approve. This skill writes proposals; it never installs, activates, or edits skills on its own — a freshly drafted skill is a proposal, not a verified capability. It is domain-general: nothing here is specific to stormwater or SWMM. The same recipe produces a skill for any modeling or workflow domain. ## When to use - A recurring problem keeps showing up and **no existing skill covers it** — the gap itself is the trigger to propose a new one. - Someone asks to "create / propose / draft a new skill" for some capability. - An agentic system (e.g. a memory or lessons-learned layer) flags a repeated pattern that warrants a new skill rather than a tweak to an existing one. If an existing skill already covers most of the need, **improve that one instead** — don't create a near-duplicate (see step 2). ## How to draft a skill …

How to install
mdr add zhonghao1995/agentic-swmm-workflow/skill-author@sha256:d1ea29f007896405The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260617.575420b, 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.
