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

> This file follows the [agents.md](https://agents.md) convention and provides
> machine-readable guidance for AI coding agents (Qoder, Claude Code, Codex,
> Cursor, etc.) working in this repository. For a human-oriented overview,
> see [`README.md`](README.md) and [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](CONTRIBUTING.md).

## Project overview

**skill-up** is a CLI evaluation framework for Agent Skill developers, written
in Go. It loads declarative eval configs (`evals/eval.yaml` + `cases/*.yaml`),
provisions an isolated workspace, invokes an Agent Engine (Qoder CLI / Claude
Code / Codex), runs Judges (`rule_based` / `script` / `agent_judge`), and emits
structured reports (JSON / JUnit / HTML / Anthropic `grading.json`).

- Module path: `github.com/alibaba/skill-up`
- Entry point: [`cmd/skill-up/main.go`](cmd/skill-up/main.go)
- Go version: **1.26+** (see [`go.mod`](go.mod))
- License: Apache-2.0

## Setup commands

```bash
# Fetch dependencies (only needed after cloning or go.mod changes)
go mod download

# Install git hooks (pre-commit + commit-msg). Idempotent; auto-runs on first build.
make hooks

# Install pinned lint tools into .tools/bin/ (golangci-lint v2.11.4, revive v1.10.0)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alibaba/skill-up/AGENTS.md@sha256:f39ade73cb9d93b3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.45f15f9, 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.
