Configure and verify Kiln in an existing project or a new asset workspace for the selected coding agent. Use before authoring when the project has no working kiln_workspace server or needs another agent integration; engine development stays in the engine checkout.
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
# Set up a workspace for asset authoring Kiln's engine installation and its asset workspaces serve different tasks. Establish whether the user wants asset authoring or engine development before running anything. Authoring an asset needs a workspace. Changing the engine's own behaviour does not; read `AGENTS.md` at the repository root instead and stay in the checkout. A workspace does not require a Kiln project. It supplies the tools and local stores for standalone assets, experiments, scenes or projects. Do not turn setup into project planning unless the user's task calls for related assets with a shared brief, inventory, art direction or material lock. Do not author assets inside the engine checkout. The authoring skills assume a workspace, and giving a model the engine implementation and the example collection alongside its task changes what it produces. ## Create the workspace …

How to install
mdr add instruktlabs/kiln/kiln-setup-workspace@sha256:65ed926b3503a33fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.cf2c3a7, 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.
