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

# Kiln Engine Agent Guide

## Scope

This engine turns model-authored source into GLBs: rendering, QA, primitives,
agent tools, arena, scenes, CLI, MCP and skills.

Read [README.md](./README.md) before changing exports or shipped files. `src/` holds
runtime/tests; `scripts/` holds repo checks. `package.json` owns `files` and `exports`;
[CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md) records releases. Dated plans and reviews are historical,
never overrides of code, this guide or the changelog, and never release acceptance.

## Asset authoring

This guide covers engine changes. Author assets in a separate workspace with a live
`kiln_workspace` server: exposing engine source and examples changes model outputs.
Before asset authoring, read `kiln-setup-workspace` and create a workspace. Its maintained
copy is `skills/kiln-setup-workspace/`, registered at `.claude/skills/` and `.agents/skills/`.

Feed demonstrated authoring defects back into the maintained skills at the relevant
boundary: shared shape and fit guidance in
`skills/kiln-author-asset/references/geometry-recipes.md`; destination traversal,
interaction and performance evidence in the QA integration reference. Keep scene-specific
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add matthew-kissinger/kiln/AGENTS.md@sha256:22fba077c1750594

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.d5d059d, 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.
