Use when completing development phases or branches to identify and update CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md files that may have become stale - analyzes what changed, determines affected contracts and documentation, and coordinates updates.
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
# Maintaining Project Context **REQUIRED SUB-SKILL:** Use ed3d-extending-claude:writing-claude-md-files for all context file creation and updates. ## Core Principle Context files (CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md) document contracts and architectural intent. When code changes contracts, the documentation must update. Stale documentation is worse than no documentation. **Trigger:** End of development phase, branch completion, or any work that changed contracts, APIs, or domain structure. ## Format Detection (MANDATORY FIRST STEP) Before any updates, detect what format this repository uses: ```bash # Check for AGENTS.md at root ls -la AGENTS.md 2>/dev/null # Check for CLAUDE.md at root ls -la CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null ``` | Root AGENTS.md? | Format | Action | |-----------------|--------|--------| | Yes | AGENTS.md-canonical | Update AGENTS.md files, create companion CLAUDE.md | | No | CLAUDE.md-canonical | Update CLAUDE.md files directly | **Key principle:** We use OUR format structure (Purpose, Contracts, Dependencies, Invariants, etc.) regardless of filename. AGENTS.md is just for cross-platform AI agent compatibility. ### AGENTS.md-Canonical Repos When the repo uses AGENTS.md: …

How to install
mdr add ed3dai/ed3d-plugins/maintaining-project-context@sha256:2a3f6bd0c448282dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260204.611bfd1, 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.
