Package immutable release artifacts with provenance evidence.
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
## OBJECTIVE **IMMUTABLE REALITY.** Turn code into a portable artifact that can be traced, verified, and rejected automatically if the supply chain is wrong. **The Law**: 1. **Traceable**: Every artifact points to an exact repo, full Git commit, builder, and build time. 2. **Portable**: Ship the smallest practical runtime; public CLI releases should prefer self-contained/static binaries when the stack supports it. 3. **Verifiable**: Publish digests, checksums, signatures, SBOM, and provenance that a consumer can verify independently. 4. **Policy-Enforced**: Unsigned, unscanned, or unverifiable artifacts do not get promoted. 5. **Reproducible by Proof**: If you claim "same source, same artifact", pin inputs and prove it with repeated-build verification. ## PROTOCOL ### Phase 1: Release Identity (Naming) *No "v1.0". Use specifics.* 1. **Primary Identity**: The image digest or binary checksum. Tags are pointers, not truth. 2. **Commit Tag**: `sha-a1b2c3d` for operator convenience. 3. **Semantic Tag**: `v1.2.3` only for an intentional release. 4. **Latest Tag**: **DANGER**. Only update `latest` after successful verification and deployment. …

How to install
mdr add lyther/agent-surface/ship-artifact@sha256:da9fceccceefd8f1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260806.146d8e8, 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.
