third-party-integration from amey-thakur/ai-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Integrate an external service so its failures, changes, and limits do not become your outages. Use when adding a dependency on an API you do not control.
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
# Third-party integration Every integration adds a system you cannot fix, deploy, or debug. The design question is not how to call the API but what happens to your product when it is slow, changed, or gone. ## Method 1. **Wrap it behind your own interface.** An adapter layer means a provider change touches one module rather than the codebase, and it makes testing possible without the provider. 2. **Decide what happens when it fails.** Degrade, queue, or fail the request. Deciding this at design time is what separates a degraded feature from an outage (see partial-failure-handling). 3. **Never call a third party synchronously in a critical path if you can avoid it.** Their latency becomes yours, and their outage becomes your downtime. 4. **Read the limits before building.** Rate limits, payload sizes, and quotas shape the design, and discovering them in production is expensive (see rate-limit-handling). 5. **Model their data into yours.** Storing their shape directly couples your schema to their versioning decisions (see data-mapping). 6. **Plan for their deprecations.** APIs change on their schedule, so …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/third-party-integration@sha256:01843efc206d4786The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.419e522, 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.
