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 Repository guidance for coding agents. ## Core Principles (CRITICAL) **Less is more. The simplest solution is the best solution.** The action hierarchy for every change: **Delete > Replace > Add**. 1. **Solve at the owner**: Put behavior in the code path that owns or observes it. For fixes, never guard a symptom with a staleness check, initialization flag, skip-first-call branch, or `try/except` around broken logic; relocate the trigger and delete the wrong path. For features, extend the existing owner rather than creating a parallel abstraction. 2. **Search and reuse first**: Search the whole repository before creating a feature, component, helper, workflow, or utility. Reuse or adapt what exists, consolidate in-scope duplication in the shared owner, and delete duplicate paths. Three similar lines beat a helper nobody else calls. 3. **Delete and modify existing code before creating new code**: Bugfixes are net-negative by default unless deletion and relocation are demonstrably impossible. A new file must first prove it cannot fit cleanly in an existing owner. …

How to install
mdr add ultralytics/skills/AGENTS.md@sha256:830a88c4eaa36f4cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.acfe53c, 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.
