Prepares the contents of a dated backup of a custom skills folder and drafts a session journal entry, both for the user to save, so work can be resumed after a crash, a context loss or a skills wipe. Returns the copy action list, backup manifest, journal entry, resume summary and a restore plan whose steps the user confirms one by one and carries out. Use when the user asks to "back up my skills folder", "checkpoint this session", "write the session journal…
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
# Skills backup keeper ## Purpose Protect the user's custom skills and working context against three failure modes: the skills folder being wiped or emptied without warning, the conversation losing its context mid-task, and the session ending unexpectedly. Two artefacts do this: dated copies of the skills folder kept in a separate backup folder, and an append-only session journal that lets a new conversation pick up where the last one stopped. The agent does not copy, create or delete files. It reads the listings and files the user attaches, pastes or makes reachable through its configured knowledge sources, and returns the exact actions for the user to perform plus the full text of every manifest and journal entry. Verification uses listings the user pastes back. ## When to use - The user asks to back up, snapshot or checkpoint their skills folder. - The user asks to write, update or read the session journal. - The user asks to resume, continue or find out where the previous session left off. - The user reports the skills folder is empty, missing or wiped, or asks to restore from a backup. - The user is about to edit or reorganise skills and asks for a safety copy first. …

How to install
mdr add kesslernity/awesome-copilot-agent-skills/skills-backup-keeper@sha256:3f24243f90f29a6bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.44af39e, 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.
