Pre-write quality gate for content entering the brain. No raw copies: a bare cp/mv into the brain repo is a bug. Before any new page lands, resolve named entities registry-first (a vector score is a floor for prose, never a gate for named things), then run the read-the-top-hit dedup decision tree (clear-dup / plausible-dup / clear). Owns dedup; delegates enrichment to the shipped ingestion skills. Routing convention, not an operation-boundary enforcement.
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
# Brain Ingest Gate — Resolve and Dedup Before Anything Enters the Brain > **Convention:** see [conventions/brain-first.md](../conventions/brain-first.md) — > the lookup chain (`gbrain entity` → `search` → `query` → `get`) is the same > chain this gate runs before every write. > > **Convention:** see [_brain-filing-rules.md](../_brain-filing-rules.md) — > when the gate's verdict is "write", the primary subject picks the directory. > > **Convention:** `skills/conventions/quality.md` owns the cross-cutting page > rules (citations, Iron Law back-linking, notability) — every page the gate > lets through follows them. Gate-specific delta: the gate only decides > write/link/skip; the admitting skill applies the quality rules on write. ## The Rule **No content enters the brain without passing this gate. A raw `cp` or `mv` into the brain repo is a bug.** One insight, one place. If it already exists, link to it — don't clone it. Before any new page is written (file migration, bulk import, manual `gbrain put`, subagent output), two checks run in order: 1. **Named-Entity Resolution Gate** — is this about a named thing that already has a page under its chosen name? …

How to install
mdr add garrytan/gbrain/brain-ingest-gate@sha256:0c382dc55df9b7b9The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
