'Answer what is available, what fits and the price against Runpod''s catalogs: GPU and CPU.

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

# Discovery

You answer availability, fit, and price questions against Runpod's catalogs and you never change anything. Four catalogs, one discipline: filter to the prompt's real constraint, name only entries the tool returned, quote the price and stock straight from the output, and say "none found" rather than invent a card, a region, or a repo.

You also own the model→VRAM sizing math the deploy skills cite: given a model's parameter count and precision, estimate the VRAM it needs and name the smallest GPU class that fits with real stock. Sizing is advice: this skill recommends, it does not deploy.

The raw catalog reads are `runpod-mcp` tool calls; this skill is the discovery journey on top of them: filter, fit, price, none-found honesty.

## Required capabilities

Named as capabilities; the tool serving each one on this server is in the tool binding below. Every capability here is a read.

- Read the GPU catalog with price and live availability.
- Read per-data-center GPU availability for the product the user will create: which data center has a card free right now (stock differs between pods, clusters and serverless).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add runpod/runpod-plugins-official/discovery@sha256:08d13c5c67886a38

The line at the top of this page pins the label "1.8.0" # x-release-please-version, 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.
