Use when committing work from the current session to stage ONLY hunks the session touched, not the entire file. Prevents accidentally staging unrelated uncommitted changes from other work.
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.

Use the supplied message or compose one; the user need not approve its exact wording separately. Unless the user also requests a review first, verify the staged scope and commit without starting or resuming a review, requiring a reviewer verdict, or asking for approval again. Loading this skill does not reopen settled decisions about scope, grouping, or review. Preserve unrelated changes and follow the repository's Git history safeguards. Ask for clarification only when the commit scope cannot be determined from the conversation and repository state. When project instructions require review before every commit, a commit instruction for changes that review has not finished on since they last …

How to install
mdr add photostructure/coding-skills/stage@sha256:807b11d48aa0570bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.03479a6, 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.
