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
# Better chezmoi Use chezmoi through an inspect, preview, apply, and verify loop. Keep source state, target state, local configuration, remote Git, and external effects distinct so a convenient command does not silently widen the user's request. ## Operating contract - Current reference evidence: official chezmoi documentation and release v2.71.0, checked 2026-07-15. - Locally exercised command surface: chezmoi v2.70.2 on macOS, including a fully isolated source, destination, config, cache, and persistent-state harness. - Version rule: run `chezmoi --version` and inspect `chezmoi <command> --help` before using a version-sensitive flag. The installed binary owns executable syntax; the scraped documentation supplies current concepts, examples, and newly released behavior. - Authority rule: an explicit request to add, edit, apply, update, merge, or remove a named target authorizes that scoped effect. It does not authorize applying every target, enabling auto-push, rewriting remote history, exposing secrets, or destroying source and target state. …

How to install
mdr add jpcaparas/skills/better-chezmoi@sha256:d2d1a0a8050f43efThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.692d684, 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.
