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

Shared operating contract for agents working in this repository. Read this file in both
Pi and Claude Code; machine-local instructions may add workflow details, not replace the
public specification. The configuration inventory and settled baseline are in
[`docs/agents/configuration.md`](docs/agents/configuration.md).

## Purpose and authority

Skill Harness is a Python evaluation harness for reusable AI agent skills. The reader-facing
record is exact token cost, evidence grade and, when a preregistered causal test has been
completed, a verdict scoped to that test. The reader makes the deployment decision; `KEEP`
is not an instruction to deploy. See [ADR 0002](docs/adr/0002-reader-facing-record-cost-grade-scoped-verdict.md).

Before changing behavior, read `GLOSSARY.md`, `docs/PRD.md`, `docs/INVARIANTS.md`, the relevant
accepted records in `docs/adr/`, and `CONTRIBUTING.md`. The specification and accepted decisions
govern measurement semantics. Executable configuration governs tool settings and gate scope;
this file does not introduce another copy of statistical thresholds or dependency pins.
Surface a conflict rather than silently changing either side.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mrbinnacle/skill-harness/AGENTS.md@sha256:f05abf1388b5751f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.500a82a, 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.
