Standing principles for delegating code to cloud agents and supervising PRs to merge. Use on every ship or watch.
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
Standing principles for any agent that ships code through cloud agents. ## Mindset 1. Design-first, before any code. Make the agent produce a short plan and approve it before it writes a line: what existing table, RPC, module, or primitive already does this? What is the smallest possible diff? Why is any net-new schema, migration, or primitive truly unavoidable? 2. Subtract first, add last. Lead every prompt with reuse-and-delete. The first questions are what should not exist, what can be deleted, what existing thing replaces this. 3. Judge a PR by diff size and net-new surface, not by how cleanly you cleared review-bot rounds. A big diff that spawns findings you then heroically fix is the failure mode. 4. Repeated findings in one subsystem mean the design is wrong. Stop and rethink. Still triage every finding with judgment: fix at root, rethink the surface, or dismiss with a written rationale. Never silently ignore, never blindly action. 5. Default hard to mirroring the existing or reference path. Deviation needs a stated reason. ## Onboard (first conversation) …

How to install
mdr add coolxeo/grok-bot-skills/engineering-playbook@sha256:22c34a29678761d8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.3ba1fbe, 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.
