Rewrites your organisation's own AI rules as a can, cannot and ask first table with real task examples, a who-to-ask list for grey areas and a list of what is still undecided. Use for "run adopt-ai-rules-explainer", "explain our AI policy", "AI policy in plain language", "can I paste a customer email into AI", "what are we allowed to put into AI", "AI rules one pager", "simplify the AI use policy", "AI dos and don'ts for staff", part of the Claude Guide for AI Adoption Pack by Polar Bear.

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

# AI Rules Explainer

## When To Use
The policy exists, is eleven pages long, and people still do not know whether they can paste a customer email. Use this when the rules are written down and nobody can act on them in the middle of a task. It answers one question for the reader: what can I do, what can I not do, and who do I ask when I am not sure?

## When Not To Use
Do not use it when there is no policy, or to fill a hole in one: this skill explains rules that exist and writes none. For one team's own practice inside the rules, run Team AI Agreement. For the single rule that belongs to a single task, run AI Job Aid.

## Inputs
- The organisation's AI policy or rules, pasted or uploaded, with section or page numbers where it has them.
- The roles who will read the explainer, two or three real tasks for each, and the questions they keep asking, in their words and without names.
- Who owns the policy, and who answers data, security and legal questions.
If you have none of this, I start from the policy text alone and mark the output as a first draft.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add polar-bear-org/claude-skills/adopt-ai-rules-explainer@sha256:3b19dd45c535ff0d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.dce569c, 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.
