Answers repo questions with file:line evidence and tours unfamiliar modules. Trigger: "where does X live", "how does this work", "walk me through", or "onboard me". Not for external evidence (/ai-research), failures (/ai-debug), or diff correctness (/ai-verify).
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
# Read this repository and answer ## What it produces An answer anchored to real paths. Every claim points at `file:line`, or it is marked as a guess. ## Steps 1. Match the depth to the question, not to a flag. "Where is X" gets a path and a sentence. "How does this work" gets the flow. "Onboard me" gets a tour, and a tour is longer than five sentences by definition. 2. Match the words to who is asking. Somebody who does not code gets what the thing does and what it costs them when it breaks, with the file paths kept as evidence rather than as the answer; somebody who does gets the path first. Ask which if the question does not say, and never answer a business question with a call graph. 3. Find the real entry point before reading anything else. Working outward from the wrong file produces a confident answer about the wrong subsystem. 4. Follow one real path end to end and say what happens at each hop. Never summarise a flow from file names alone — that is the single most common way this goes wrong, and it reads exactly like a correct answer. 5. When the shape is the answer, draw it. Under 70 columns, and every box is a real file that exists: ``` …

How to install
mdr add arcasilesgroup/ai-engineering/ai-explore@sha256:8e6a69ef3125243cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.9932b24, 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.
