Use when an Orleans task requires choosing state ownership, communication, scheduling or hosting guarantees against failure. Not for other actor stacks, relational-only CRUD or Cratis.Orleans job implementation.

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

<!-- Modified by Cratis from managedcode's original (MIT): frontmatter, applicability, navigation and the changes listed in NOTICE. Upstream: https://github.com/managedcode/dotnet-skills (catalog/Frameworks/Orleans/skills/orleans/SKILL.md; see NOTICE) -->

# Microsoft Orleans

Use only within this skill's stated task; general workflow advice does not apply to unrelated tasks. Cratis rules in `.cratis/ai/rules/` (including `csharp.md`, `specs.csharp.md`, and `orleans.md`) and the `cratis-*` skills win where they differ. `.cratis/ai/rules/orleans.md` forbids `[Alias]` on grain interfaces and grain methods (it is used only on `[GenerateSerializer]` state and definition records that must survive a rename) and forbids `ConfigureAwait(false)` in grain code; **cratis-orleans-jobs** owns recoverable jobs. DurableJobs/Journaling are experimental and are not interchangeable with Cratis.Orleans jobs.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cratis/ai/orleans@sha256:c18005c9d7542e4d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.fc845e3, 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.
