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

# AGENTS.md

Rules for this repository, on top of whatever global guidance an agent already loads.

## Examples in a skill are abstract, never real

A skill teaches a rule; it never carries a sample of anyone's actual work. Every example in `SKILL.md` and in `references/` is a shape or a placeholder — what the sentence does, not the sentence itself.

Never a real post, a real account, a real person's text, a captured run, a screenshot of one, or anything copied from the author's own published writing. Two reasons, each sufficient: that material is private and does not belong in a published skill, and a sentence printed in a skill comes back verbatim in the next run's output.

## Evals measure a description, and they live outside the skill

A rule a skill states is proved by reading it, and a check it prescribes is proved by running it on the work in hand. Neither settles the one question reading cannot reach: whether a description fires on the prompts it should and stays quiet on the ones it should not. With forty-odd skills whose boundaries touch each other, that is decided by measurement or it is not decided at all. So evals are allowed, on these terms.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add khasky/awesome-agent-skills/AGENTS.md@sha256:698b8801e8c3ac91

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.a4259a5, 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.
