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

# blog — voice, post conventions, and the "The State of React" series

This file owns how posts get written here: the voice, the general post conventions, and (in the
back half) the runbook for the recurring component-comparison series. Site-wide build rules and
the LLM docs pipeline live in `docs/CLAUDE.md`.

## Voice & style (all posts)

Posts are written in Alex's voice. The register is conversational; the copy is clean. When in
doubt, reread the `:::info` admonition in the v2 release post (owning the accidental 2.0.0
version bump) and the intro of the first State of React edition: candid, plain, direct.

- **Get to the point.** On a release post or a how-to, the first sentence states the point.
  Background comes after, briefly, as a "why" before the "what". On a story post, that rule
  is what opens [Fighting AI Training Bias](https://bestax.io/blog/fighting-ai-training-bias)
  on a thesis. A story opens where the work started. See **Story posts** below.
- **Conversational register.** Contractions always. Short plain sentences. Write to one reader,
  not an audience. A rhetorical question is a good move ("So which one do you import?"), about
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add allxsmith/bestax/docs/blog/CLAUDE.md@sha256:f3aa21fbc85e01b5

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.8a273ab, 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.
