Inspect a repository for story-specific implementation evidence, applicable decisions, validation prior art, and bounded planning-critical external primary sources, then produce compact Repo Context. Use for pre-implementation file discovery and greenfield path grounding; use tester-mindset for test strategy and avoid requirements clarification, implementation planning, broad context management, security review, or code changes.
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
# Story Repo Scout Turn a searchable change request into evidence-backed `Repo Context`. This skill owns that artifact; it does not clarify product intent, design the solution, or implement the change. ## Required Input Accept a story card, ticket, issue, acceptance criteria, or rough request when it provides at least one distinctive search anchor, such as an observable behavior, domain term, route, command, UI label, error, config key, data field, or known symbol. A complete story card is useful but not required. When the input names a path, issue, or URL, treat that source as part of the input rather than relying on its title or excerpt. Read the full accessible, authorized body plus material comments and linked decisions. Record its stable identifier and exposed revision, update time, or commit. If access is partial or unavailable, record the exact gap and its planning consequence. If the intended behavior is too ambiguous to establish a search boundary, use `story-clarifier`. If repository access or every available input lacks a searchable anchor, return a truthful non-ready artifact instead of guessing. ## Workflow …

How to install
mdr add n-n-code/n-n-code-skills/story-repo-scout@sha256:257d08d128d66ab0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.0129ab4, 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.
