Enforce code quality through the Boy Scout Rule (leave code better than found), secret-free commits, production-ready code (no TODOs, console.log, mocks, or commented code), and self-review against an atomic-commits checklist. Use when writing, modifying, or reviewing code. This skill MUST be consulted because production code without these standards causes quality regressions and operational incidents.
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
# Code Quality Principles ## Iron Law **Every change is intentional: if you can't explain why a line changed, revert it.** ## Before You Write Code Answer first, or return to EXPLORE: which task/criterion this code serves; which files change and why each; which existing project patterns apply; what could go wrong (error cases, edge cases, security); how you will verify it. ## Boy Scout Rule Leave every file you touch better than you found it. Touching a file means owning its known issues. **The proximity test is NOT a deferral mechanism for P1/P2 findings.** It decides *how* a cleanup is committed (alongside the feature fix vs. a separate `improve:` commit), not *whether* it gets fixed. A P1 or P2 in a file the PR modifies is fixed in this PR. **A cleanup is a standalone `improve:` commit when ALL true:** 1. The file is already being modified for the current task 2. The fix is self-evidently correct (lint, format, typo, obvious bug, missing error handling) 3. The fix is small (under ~10 lines) 4. It does not change public API signatures or behavior semantics 5. It needs no explanation beyond "Boy Scout cleanup" …

How to install
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/code-quality-principles@sha256:29d4058b8f3105a5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.21b6797, 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.
