dovetail skillA

dovetail is agent-read markdown (skill) from dbhq-uk/dovetail-skill: Check whether a repository agrees with itself, then work through the findings one at a time. Finds broken links, dangling heading anchors, orphaned files, duplicate content, translations that have fallen behind, drift between docs and code, contradictions between documents, and conventions the repo states but does not follow. Trigger on phrases like "dovetail", "check this repo", "does this repo agree with itself", "find contradictions", "repo coherence", "docs drift", "audit this repository"..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add dbhq-uk/dovetail-skill/dovetail@git:20260729.f328905
Exact content
mdr add dbhq-uk/dovetail-skill/dovetail@sha256:f20eb70127a9fce7

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
