Create a skillsaw rule plugin — a pip-installable Python package that adds custom lint rules to skillsaw. Walks through scaffolding the package, writing rules against the lint tree, testing, and publishing to PyPI. Use when a user wants to share skillsaw rules across repositories or publish them for others.
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
# skillsaw Create Plugin Create a **skillsaw rule plugin**: a Python package that adds lint rules to [skillsaw](https://skillsaw.org). Once you build and publish to PyPI, anyone can `pip install` it and skillsaw picks up the rules automatically — no config required. Prefer this to per-repo `custom-rules:` files when sharing rules across repos. Keep the terminology straight: a *skillsaw plugin* adds rules to the skillsaw linter itself. Never confuse it with the Claude Code plugins that skillsaw lints. Review this reference material while you work: - Read the plugin guide: https://skillsaw.org/plugins/ - Follow the rule-writing guide (lint tree, block types): https://skillsaw.org/custom-rules/ and https://skillsaw.org/lint-tree/ - Read the complete working example: `examples/plugins/skillsaw-example-plugin/` in the [skillsaw repo](https://github.com/stbenjam/skillsaw) Follow each step in order, and keep the user updated on progress at each stage. ## Step 1: Gather requirements Review the following with the user: 1. **What should each rule check?** Get concrete examples of content that should pass and content that should fail. …

How to install
mdr add stbenjam/skillsaw/skillsaw-create-plugin@sha256:72a813bb10f0b8a0The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
