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

# Riffpad Agent Guide

## Project

Riffpad is a remote control for AI coding agents: a local daemon bridges the CLI sessions on your computer, an encrypted relay streams events, and the phone supervises, approves, and steers.

## Rules

1. **Read `docs/prd.md` and `docs/tsd.md` first** — they are the source of truth for product positioning and technical design; `docs/design.md` is a quick overview.
2. **Minimal changes** — do only what is asked.
3. **Security first** — the relay is zero-trust, transport is end-to-end encrypted, and the mobile client is read-only by default; treat any change involving credentials or keys with extra care.
4. **Test and verify** — run the relevant tests and build after a change, then push and wait for CI before calling it done: `gh pr checks <n> --watch` (or poll in a loop with a timeout). Never report a change as verified on local tests alone — CI runs `-race` and Playwright, which catch things local builds don't.
5. **Keep the protocol in sync** — any event-protocol change must update both `packages/protocol` and `docs/design.md`.
6. **Use the `gh` CLI** — manage issues, branches, and PRs through the GitHub workflow.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add riffpad/riffpad/AGENTS.md@sha256:cabcc0098d64e02a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.f1c3331, 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.
