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

# AGENTS.md

`polly` is an LLM harness: a CLI + TUI (`cmd/polly`) on a Go library. Single module `github.com/alexschlessinger/pollytool`, Go 1.27, stdlib `testing` only, no Makefile.

## Verify before declaring done

```bash
CGO_ENABLED=0 go build ./...   # sqlite is modernc.org/sqlite; cgo stays off
go vet ./...
go test ./...
gofmt -l $(git ls-files -co --exclude-standard '*.go')   # must print nothing; no hook or CI step enforces formatting
```

- `.github/ci.sh [test|race|cross|warm|all]` is the shared CI entry point. `test` = local-ci Python unit tests + build + vet + `POLLYTOOL_REQUIRE_SANDBOX_TESTS=1 go test ./...`; `race` needs `CGO_ENABLED=1` and the workflow samples it on about one run in five; `cross` builds 5 GOOS/GOARCH targets including windows/amd64; `warm` is the compile-only cache pass the Docker image build runs.
- Sandbox security tests are opt-in: `POLLYTOOL_REQUIRE_SANDBOX_TESTS=1 go test ./tools/sandbox` (macOS/Linux only). Linux needs `bubblewrap` and `kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alexschlessinger/polly/AGENTS.md@sha256:16008a439cd066be

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.08a0faf, 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.
