Use when the user asks about GitNexus itself — available tools, how to query the knowledge graph, MCP resources, graph schema, or workflow reference. Examples: "What GitNexus tools are available?", "How do I use GitNexus?".

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

# GitNexus Guide

Quick reference for all GitNexus MCP tools, resources, and the knowledge graph schema.

## Always Start Here

For any task involving code understanding, debugging, impact analysis, or refactoring:

1. **Read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/context`** — codebase overview + check index freshness
2. **Match your task to a skill below** and **read that skill file**
3. **Follow the skill's workflow and checklist**

> If step 1 warns the index is stale, run `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze` in the terminal first.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add mckruz/microsoft-agentic-harness/gitnexus-guide@sha256:746d057790de5b03

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260809.a6d9541, 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.
