protocol-reverse-engineering SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
protocol-reverse-engineering from rudycity/superagent is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add rudycity/superagent/protocol-reverse-engineering@git:20260626.019dba9Pins git:20260626.019dba9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Master network protocol reverse engineering including packet analysis, protocol dissection, and custom protocol documentation. Use when analyzing network traffic, understanding proprietary protocols, or debugging network communication.
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.

How to install
mdr add rudycity/superagent/protocol-reverse-engineering@sha256:feb62efcbc6c9f97The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260626.019dba9, 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.
