external-resource-context SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 5 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

external-resource-context from shinpr/claude-code-workflows is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add shinpr/claude-code-workflows/external-resource-context@git:20261019.e544b5c

Pins git:20261019.e544b5c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Records where resources outside the repository live (design source, design system, API schema, IaC source, secret store) and how design, implementation, and verification reach them. Use when work depends on an external resource, or when the user mentions design source, design system, API schema, IaC source, secret store, or canonical source.

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

# External Resource Context

## Purpose

Repository evidence does not contain every external resource surrounding a system. This skill captures, in a deterministic location, the **access methods** to resources outside the repository so downstream work (design, planning, implementation, review) can reach them without repeatedly rediscovering access details.

Resources covered: design origin (where the canonical visual specification lives), design system (component library and tokens), guidelines (usage docs, accessibility rules), visual verification environment (how to confirm rendering), database schema source, migration history, secret store location, API schema source (OpenAPI / proto / GraphQL SDL), mock environment, IaC source, environment configuration.

## Storage Locations (Two-Tier)

| Tier | Location | Holds | Update Frequency |
|------|----------|-------|------------------|
| Project | `docs/project-context/external-resources.md` | Environment-stable facts: which resources exist for this project and how to access them (URL, MCP name, file path, command) | Rare — only when the project's environment changes |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add shinpr/claude-code-workflows/external-resource-context@sha256:e2496fc1b01918cc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.e544b5c, 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.
