Defines CC-* code rules and waivers. Use when mapping lint findings to rule IDs or tracking complexity mass, erosion, and verbosity across changes.
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
# Clean Code Standard This skill is the authoritative clean code standard for this repository's shared skills. It defines stable rule IDs (`CC-*`), how to apply them in reviews, and how to extend them safely via language overlays and explicit exceptions. **Judgment over dogma**: This standard's `CC-*` rules are durable (coupling/cohesion, naming, small interfaces, explicit errors). Numeric folklore — hard function-length caps, "comments are a smell," DRY applied absolutely — is not. Robert C. Martin's *Clean Code* (2nd ed., 2025) and John Ousterhout's *A Philosophy of Software Design* disagree in a published, public debate on function size and commenting (see [references/code-quality-operational-playbook.md § 14](references/code-quality-operational-playbook.md#14-judgment-over-dogma)); apply the rule ID's intent, not a book's specific numeric prescription, and know when *not* to refactor (§ 14.3 of the same reference). --- ## Quick Reference | Task | Tool/Framework | Command | When to Use | |------|-----|---------|-------------| | Cite a standard | `CC-*` rule ID | N/A | PR review comments, design discussions, postmortems | …

How to install
mdr add vasilyu1983/ai-agents-public/software-clean-code-standard@sha256:e5f4a73c4cbdebd2The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3, 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.
