Generates project instruction files (AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md) that transfer institutional knowledge. Use when setting up projects or onboarding. For lessons from a finished project or investigation, use project-retrospective.
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
# Project memory generator Create a project instruction file that transfers institutional knowledge, not obvious information. Think like a senior journalist onboarding a competent colleague. Do not explain how journalism works; explain this project's quirks. ## Choose the canonical instruction file Resolve the target before writing: 1. If `AGENTS.md` exists, update it. If no `CLAUDE.md` exists, then in Claude Code, also create a one-line `CLAUDE.md` that imports it with `@AGENTS.md`. Claude Code loads `CLAUDE.md`, not `AGENTS.md`. 2. If only `CLAUDE.md` exists, update it. 3. If both exist and one imports the other, edit the imported canonical file. 4. If neither exists, create `AGENTS.md`. In Claude Code, also create the same one-line `CLAUDE.md` import. Do not create competing copies of the same guidance. Keep nested instruction files only when a subdirectory needs narrower rules than its parent. ## Project instructions are advisory A project instruction file gives standing context to the active client. It does not enforce a rule by itself. In Claude Code, `CLAUDE.md` content is delivered as user context after the …

How to install
mdr add jamditis/claude-skills-journalism/project-memory@sha256:0c96503073fca03dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.21f0bb2, 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.
