Agentic-use and skill-routing workflow for the Research Project Template. USE WHEN discovering relevant skills, making template easier for agents to navigate, auditing docs/prompts skill coverage, checking .agents/skill_manifest.json, evaluating external skills, reviewing external agentic operating models such as Steward OS, AutoResearch CLI, LEANN, or Agent Skills for Context Engineering, or improving agent onboarding/routing without changing project behavior.

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

# Agentic use

## Natural invoke

- "Discover all relevant skills for working with template/"
- "Make this repo easier for agents to navigate"
- "Improve skill routing and eval coverage"
- "Check whether an external skill should be installed or just referenced"
- "Review Steward OS and learn useful skills or ideas for template/"
- "Review autoresearch-cli and learn measurement-loop patterns for template/"
- "Can LEANN semantic memory help template agents navigate this repo?"
- "Install Agent Skills for Context Engineering across Codex, Claude, and Hermes"

## Inputs to confirm

- **Scope** - skill discovery only, routing docs, or contract/eval hardening.
- **External installs** - default is no install and no vendoring unless explicitly requested.
- **Audience** - local agents, maintainers, or new contributors.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add docxology/template/template-agentic-use@sha256:25ef54d5bdc989fd

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, 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.
