AGENTS.md@templates/repo agentsA

AGENTS.md@templates/repo is agent-read markdown (agents) from jakeselby/agent-harness.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# <project name>

One paragraph: what this repo is, who it is for, and the one architectural fact an agent must
not violate. Link the design corpus if it lives elsewhere.

Global agent rules load from the user's harness; **do not restate them here — link them.** This
file carries only what is true of this repo.

## Commands

```sh
<install>            # e.g. pnpm install
<quality gate>       # the exact command CI runs; agents run this on HEAD before every push
<test>               # the fast local loop
<run>                # start the thing
```

**Expected clean-tree output** of the quality gate on an unmodified checkout, so a failure is
attributable: `<paste the final line, e.g. "All checks passed!", and the test count>`.

## Gate

```sh
<quality gate>       # e.g. ruff check .
<test>               # the fast suite, not the full integration run
```

The `stop-gate` hook runs this block when the tree has changed since its last green run,
blocks the turn while it is red, and releases after eight consecutive blocks.

## Conventions

- Toolchain and framework versions are pinned in `<file>`; upgrade on this project's schedule.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add jakeselby/agent-harness/templates/repo/AGENTS.md@git:20260916.3be841d
Exact content
mdr add jakeselby/agent-harness/templates/repo/AGENTS.md@sha256:c6ecdad5506e2705

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
