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

# Giles Knowledge Atlas: design thesis and interaction model

Baseline: Giles 1.1.0 at 56e431f. Its catalog solved recognition but treated source entry selection as administrative state and concentrated a glaring cream panel. The user needed contents and useful action. This is a component update to 1.2.0: new supported reading, evidence-work and indexed-archive workflows. The Nova Emergent package release remains held for the coordinated skill batch.

Giles's fundamental job is to recover retained knowledge and turn it into source-grounded work while preserving custody, corrections and uncertainty. A conversational model can retrieve and synthesize, but a dedicated interface can keep the estate spatially visible, let a person inspect source contents directly, maintain orientation across collections, compare exact evidence and preserve a working selection beyond one conversation. Those advantages are the product's center of gravity.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add stunspot/nova-the-optimal-ai-mind/claude/nova-the-optimal-ai/skills/rupert-giles-knowledge-steward/workspace/DESIGN.md@sha256:fe2199ae03b2af20

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.e66b512, 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.
