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
# Tool Evaluator Skill
Sub-agent skill for evaluating tools during `/design-ops:setup`. Coordinates MCP availability checks and API capability evaluation.
## Purpose
When a user selects tools in the setup flow, this skill:
1. Checks if the tool is already installed and connected
2. Invokes the `mcp-discovery` skill for unknown tools
3. Returns a unified result with connection type and status
## Trigger
Invoked by `/design-ops:setup` during tool evaluation phase. Should run as a background sub-agent.
---
## Input
```yaml
tools:
- name: "notion"
pillar: "operations"
- name: "figma"
pillar: "design"
- name: "substack"
pillar: "analytics"
```
## Output
Returns a capability matrix for each tool, including discovery metadata:
```yaml
results:
- tool: notion
connection_type: mcp
mcp_name: "notion"
status: connected # connected | available | api_only | unavailable | skipped
# Discovery metadata (from mcp-discovery skill)
mcp_source: official # official | vendor | community | none
mcp_package: "@notionhq/notion-mcp-server"
mcp_confidence: high # high | medium | low

How to install
mdr add opensesh/design-ops/tool-evaluator@sha256:e3231ade76816daeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260417.4f9c495, 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.
