knowledge-vault from frnkgns/gentjinskills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add frnkgns/gentjinskills/knowledge-vault@git:20261021.7da3b89

Pins git:20261021.7da3b89 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Manage persistent project knowledge in the user's Knowledge Vault, including project/vault discovery, note-first lookup, vault initialization and normalization, automatic knowledge capture, architecture and ADRs, patterns, bugs, enhancements, investigations, work-in-progress, sessions, reports, and migration. MUST be used when durable knowledge is established during a task, even when the user never asks for notes, and when the user says "remember this", "save this workflow", or…

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

# Knowledge Vault

## Project Discovery

1. Resolve the project root from the nearest Git root, project metadata, or working directory.
2. Resolve the project identity in this order:
   - `.project-agent.md`
   - explicit project metadata
   - package/project name
   - Git repository name
   - root directory name
3. Normalize the identifier for filesystem use:
   - lowercase
   - trim whitespace
   - convert spaces and underscores to hyphens
   - remove unsafe characters
   - collapse repeated hyphens
4. Resolve the knowledge root to:

   `~/Documents/KnowledgeVault/<project-identifier>/`

   unless `.project-agent.md` explicitly overrides it.

5. Keep global Overgeared Skills configuration project-agnostic.

This precedence is implemented in `src/discovery/resolve.mjs` and enforced, not merely described.
Call `gentjin_discovery` with action `resolve` rather than resolving by hand, so the record and the
enforced behavior cannot drift apart. When the implementation and this section disagree, the
implementation is the authority.

### Discovery Readiness Before Retrieval

Reading memory is not enough on its own; readiness also requires that the source the task will

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add frnkgns/gentjinskills/knowledge-vault@sha256:c58ccddc19a97961

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.7da3b89, 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.
