Use to configure managed apps and work routes, sync their instruction summaries, or check dispatch readiness.

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

## Read existing configuration

Resolve the git root and use the [shared read handler](references/apps-config-schema.md#shared-read-handler).
Reuse confirmed app and routing choices.
An existing configuration is the base for requested changes; an unchanged app needs only missing information checked.
Follow the schema's legacy migration rules when the old path is the source.

## Resolve apps and missing fields

Identify candidates from manifests and common app directories, then resolve any ambiguous target with the user.
For bounded discovery, load the target app's instructions and inspect it directly.
Use a separate app-rooted workroom when ownership or continuity warrants it; follow [dispatch readiness](#check-dispatch-readiness) before launching one through [dispatching-work](../dispatching-work/SKILL.md).

Propose fields from app evidence using the [field reference](references/apps-config-schema.md#field-reference).
Required fields are `name`, `dir`, and `match`.
Optional fields need evidence or user-supplied policy: redirects, lifecycle restrictions, provider defaults, git workflow skills, local files, and cross-app skill pointers.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wayne930242/straw-boss/init@sha256:2aaaafb7b75424f7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260911.fca2e0e, 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.
