The Lossless Group's Astro Knots conventions — vision, tech hierarchy, approved frameworks, and hard prohibitions for the family of ~10+ Astro sites and the Lossless Flavored Markdown ecosystem. Use whenever working on an Astro project in the lossless-monorepo (or any sibling repo), scaffolding new sites, choosing dependencies, building components, integrating LFM, or when the user mentions "Astro Knots", "LFM", "Lossless Flavored Markdown", or "pseudomonorepo". Hard prohibitions on React…

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

# Astro Knots

> A vision-mission masquerading as a stack: use the Internet as it was originally, idealistically intended.

Astro Knots is The Lossless Group's umbrella for a family of conventions across **~10+ Astro sites at various stages**, built around Astro + Extended Markdown + SCM workflows + APIs. Think JAMstack with a steeper opinion gradient — and no one's heard of it yet.

Reference site: <https://www.lossless.group/projects/gallery/astro-knots>

## When to use this skill

- Working in any Astro project under `lossless-monorepo` or a sibling repo
- Scaffolding a new Astro site (multiple new sites per quarter is normal)
- Choosing or adding dependencies — **always check tech rules below before installing anything**
- Building components, page layouts, content pipelines
- Integrating [Lossless Flavored Markdown (LFM)](https://jsr.io/@lossless-group/lfm)
- User mentions "Astro Knots", "LFM", "extended markdown", "pseudomonorepo", or any of the ~10 site names
- Code review or refactor on an Astro Knots project

## The vision (don't skip)

1. **Internet as originally intended.** Documents, links, hypertext. Composable, not bundled. Readable URLs. Fast pages. Open formats.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lossless-group/lossless-agent-skills/astro-knots@sha256:a5a42d469d063fbe

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260605.90186ab, 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.
