Forge a reusable, portable skill from a proven workflow or capability brief. Use when the work needs repeatable instructions, triggers, guardrails, and evidence tests but does not need a persistent autonomous identity.

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 Forge

## Outcome

Design one narrow capability as a portable Agent Skills package with explicit activation boundaries, then compile and prove it when a Foundry runtime is available.

## Use this skill when

- A successful workflow should become reusable.
- A user asks to create, improve, or package a skill.
- A repeated task needs stable instructions, tools, guardrails, or evaluation.
- The capability should work in ChatGPT, Codex, or a skills-based plugin.

Do not use it when the work requires persistent decision rights, a distinct durable memory scope, or an ongoing trigger owned by an autonomous actor. Use `$agent-forge` only after proving one of those boundaries.

## Procedure

1. Define the decision contract.
   - Capture the objective, audience, deliverables, stakes, reversibility, permissions, constraints, and completion tests.
   - Ask only for missing information that materially changes the capability.
2. Discover before creating.
   - Inspect the capability graph and existing skills.
   - Reuse or depend on an existing capability when it already owns the behavior.
   - Record required, preferred, and forbidden capabilities explicitly.
3. Bound activation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add frankxai/starlight-intelligence-system/skill-forge@sha256:40507faa28aeca27

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.3f9f53e, 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.
