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

# Repository Guidelines

## Scope

Carapace owns the canonical OpenClaw web design contract:

- framework-neutral CSS tokens and themes
- a thin Tailwind 4 token adapter
- shared base behavior proven across consumers
- agent skills that explain how to use and audit the system

Consumer-specific components, routes, and layouts stay in their repositories
until at least two consumers share the same interface and behavior.

For OpenClaw and OpenClaw Foundation logos, see the
[brand kit README](https://github.com/openclaw/carapace/tree/main/brand-kit).

## Commands

- Bun `1.4.4` is the supported minimum; use the exact `packageManager` pin for
  normal development and release work.
- `bun install --frozen-lockfile` - install the committed dependency graph.
- `bun run test` - parse CSS and verify token/theme contracts.
- `bun run skills:check` - validate skill metadata and references.
- `bun run pack:check` - verify package exports and packed contents.
- `bun run check` - run all validation.
- Keep the 48-hour dependency maturity window in `bunfig.toml`; add exclusions
  only for a named, reviewed dependency.
- Use mutable `bun install` only for deliberate dependency changes, and review
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add openclaw/carapace/AGENTS.md@sha256:64d3c2bcc171795b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.bad4e40, 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.
