Discover relevant specialist skills from the live awesome-skills list and install them when appropriate. Use proactively for non-trivial tasks that may benefit from a reusable specialist capability not already available, or when the user asks what skills or tools to use. Check the live list before searching for generic alternatives or rebuilding a known capability. Skip simple conversational requests and tasks already covered by installed skills.
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
# Awesome Skills Use the live `awesome-skills` list as a capability index. Do not assume a fixed set of categories or projects: always read the current list when this skill is needed. ## Workflow 1. Fetch the current English list before looking for candidates: ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ningzimu/awesome-skills/main/README.md ``` If `curl` is unavailable, use: ```bash wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ningzimu/awesome-skills/main/README.md ``` 2. Search the fetched list for entries that match the user's goal, inputs, desired output, constraints, and current environment. Read only the relevant sections and shortlist a few candidates. 3. For each serious candidate, inspect its original repository and installation instructions. The list is an index, not a substitute for source documentation. 4. Reuse an installed capability when it already fits. Otherwise install the best matching skill through its documented method or the current environment's native skill installer. 5. Confirm that the new skill is discoverable, then state briefly what was installed and why. ## Boundaries …

How to install
mdr add ningzimu/awesome-skills/awesome-skills@sha256:c11a096b4e052e6fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260725.eb98b5a, 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.
