Reorient after time away by recapping current or related project chats, plans, open loops, and the next three tiny restart steps.
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
# Lock In Use when the user wants to refocus after being AFK, returning the next day, resuming an interrupted project, or merging open chat context into one thread. The goal is to re-trigger the user's mental context quickly enough that they can start moving again without a large planning ceremony. ## Prompt Re-download the task into the user's brain. Start with the narrowest live context and widen only as needed: - In an existing chat, summarize the current conversation, decisions, active plan, unresolved questions, and any code/docs state that matters. - In a new chat, identify the current repo/project, inspect local plans/todos/docs and git state, then use recent related unarchived chats to reconstruct what is going on across threads. - Use existing memory/search skills or the harness's chat history search when helpful. Prefer current unarchived context first; use archived chats only as background. - If chat search is unavailable or cannot see the needed threads, say that clearly and continue from repo state, docs, memory, and the current conversation. Return a concise focus brief with: - `Where We Left Off` - `Current State` - `Open Loops` - `Threads To Archive` …

How to install
mdr add mindgoblinstudios/grim-tome/grim:lock-in@sha256:8436d817e9942d75The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.f7d7117, 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.
