dox-describe SKILL.md skillA
dox-describe from blackbelttechnology/pi-agent-dashboard is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add blackbelttechnology/pi-agent-dashboard/dox-describe@git:20260911.cdfac3cPins git:20260911.cdfac3c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Fill the empty Purpose cells of a directory `AGENTS.md` tree with one-line LLM summaries (one subagent per file, plan-then-confirm, cap 50 rows/run). Use for a path-only `kb dox init` tree, or when asked to "describe the tree", "fill AGENTS.md purposes", or "populate the kb corpus".
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
# dox-describe
Turn a path-only directory `AGENTS.md` tree into a searchable kb corpus. A fresh
`kb dox init` tree carries rows shaped `` | `file.ts` | | `` — the Purpose cell is
empty, so the `agents` retrieval lane (the one file-lookup queries depend on)
finds nothing. This skill fills those cells with one-line, caveman-style
purposes, one subagent per `AGENTS.md`.
Read-only first: the CLI enumerates empty rows; the LLM only ever writes a
Purpose cell. The parent never edits an `AGENTS.md` itself, and a subagent edits
only the single file it was assigned.
## Step 1 — enumerate the empty rows
```bash
kb dox describe --list --json
```
Parse `{ groups: [{ agentsPath, subjects: string[] }], total }`. Each group is
one `AGENTS.md`; each subject is a path whose Purpose cell is empty. Nothing to
do when `total === 0` — say so and stop.
## Step 2 — present the plan and confirm
Show the user, then WAIT (`ask_user`, confirm) for approval before any write:
- number of `AGENTS.md` files (groups) and number of rows (total);
- a rough cost estimate (≈ rows × one short file read, plus one subagent per
group; state it is a rough bound, not a promise);
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add blackbelttechnology/pi-agent-dashboard/dox-describe@sha256:c21a369bcaf601d1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260911.cdfac3c, 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.
