Use to check Certified Pre-Owned eligibility, coverage, and embedded value for a specific vehicle (VIN/year/mileage) against the brand's CPO program. Covers Subaru, Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, GM, Mazda, Stellantis (Ram/Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge/Fiat), Lexus, Genesis, Acura. Triggers include "is this car CPO eligible", "CPO program details for X", "embedded CPO value", "should I pay for CPO", "factory CPO vs dealer certified", "Subaru CPO" / "Honda Certified" etc., and Spanish phrases…

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

# CPO Eligibility Check

> **Caveat**: this skill is one author's playbook + 5-scenario stress test. Verify state fees / CPO terms / EV credits / dealer practices against current sources before quoting numbers to a dealer or making financial decisions. Not tax, legal, or financial advice.
> **last_verified**: 2026-05-18 (Phase 2C sub-skill split from orchestrator)

Quick lookup for factory CPO eligibility, coverage terms, and embedded dollar value across 12 brands (8 mainstream + Stellantis SPOTiCAR + 3 luxury exceptions: Lexus, Genesis, Acura). Use this skill when a dealer claims "Certified" or buyer is deciding whether the CPO premium is worth paying.

## When To Use

- Buyer asks "is this car CPO eligible" with VIN/year/mileage
- Dealer listing shows "Certified" and buyer needs eligibility verification
- Buyer wants brand-specific CPO program details
- Buyer is comparing CPO premium vs paying out-of-pocket extended warranty
- Buyer suspects "fake CPO" (dealer-house program masquerading as factory)

## When NOT To Use

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add daizedong/buy-me-a-car/cpo-eligibility@sha256:31bb8484b1ba4b03

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.09bd4b1, 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.
