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

# agent-build

The `/build` system: the skill (`skills/build/`), its runtime scripts (`runtime/`), and its fourteen agents (`agents/`, declared in `agents.json`). `docs/layout.md` has the layout.

## Source of truth

- **Design record:** `docs/design.md` — why the skill and its agents work as they do. A section of it without a marker describes live behaviour; `**Not built.**` and `**Partial:** …` mark the rest. Where code and the record disagree, code wins and the record has a bug, fixed in the same PR.

## Conventions

- **Name a script in docs by its installed path:** `~/.agent-build/runtime/<script>`, never a path into this checkout.
- **`skills/build/SKILL.md` stays within 12,000 characters** (bytes, as `wc -c` counts them): a skills installer may refuse a larger one. Move steps into the stop files it points at. `runtime/__tests__/buildStopPins.test.ts` checks it.
- **An agent is in `agents.json` and `agents/<name>.md` together, or in neither.** `tests/agents.test.mjs` checks it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add federbenjamin/agent-build/AGENTS.md@sha256:4e1d476a414e9149

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.97f5050, 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.
