Use whenever the person needs to understand what is going on in this collection: they ask (how something works, what a term or a verb's answer means, what is happening in a run, what can be done here, how to start), they call help, or, unasked, the moment you notice they do not know or do not understand something of this ecosystem (a term they misuse or ask about, surprise at what a run or a skill does, a choice they cannot make for lack of the picture). Explains, in simple terms, what you are…
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
# Help **Explain what you are doing together and how it works, from where the person is, never from a manual.** Their question, or what they did not follow, and what is going on now (the skill in use, the run on the board, the document open, the last answer a verb printed) say which part of the landscape to explain: what is happening, why, how the pieces fit, what can be done next. Explain that, in their terms and with this work's own content, then guide them on. **Unasked, explain as you go**: when the person misuses a term, is surprised by what a run or a skill did, or cannot choose for lack of the picture, give the few lines they miss at that point, without stopping the work, then carry on. ## Simple terms, always **Write for a tired engineer: someone smart who has no energy left for decoding.** This rule has no exception. - **Short sentences, plain words.** One idea per sentence. - **No jargon left unexplained.** A term of this collection (seat, phase, task, protocol, verifier, board, data home) gets a plain meaning the first time, then is used the same way. - **Concrete before abstract**: what is happening in their work first, the general rule after, if at all. …

How to install
mdr add ovich/swarmstorm/help@sha256:e13f4ba78d60cc63The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.febaf46, 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.
