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
# General * Be concise * Use plain language: short, direct sentences in the active voice, with common words over jargon and buzzwords. * Write literally, with no metaphors, idioms, or other figurative language the reader must decode. * Do not use em-dashes, use commas or parentheses instead * One sentence per line * Avoid running `find /` (or similarly broad filesystem scans) unless really necessary, as it is generally a waste of time; scope the search to a specific path or add a proper depth limit instead. * When a skill explicitly recommends running another skill as an upstream/prerequisite (for example create-article recommending research-article when sources are not yet gathered), and you choose not to follow that recommendation, you must say so and give your reasoning before proceeding, so it can be course-corrected. Surfacing the deviation after the fact is not sufficient. # Second opinions * When you need a second opinion or feedback on work you did as an agent, ask a subagent to do it, so the reviewer does not start from your context and can judge the work on its own. # Banned terms …

How to install
mdr add tomzx/agents/AGENTS.md@sha256:876b662f62037032The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.2803bc1, 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.
