Use during periodic review sessions (weekly/monthly/quarterly) to turn raw captures into reusable frameworks — patterns captured ≥3 times become named, documented, ready-to-reuse frameworks. Default skill for Starlight Second Brain.
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
# Insight Distillation > *"Three captures is a pattern. Five is a framework. Seven is a signature. Count."* ## When This Skill Activates - Periodic review sessions — weekly, monthly, quarterly - Keywords: *distill*, *synthesize captures*, *monthly review*, *what did I learn*, *connect the dots*, *pattern across notes* - Default for: Starlight Second Brain - Composes with: memory/knowledge-synthesis, intelligence/pattern-recognition, memory/vault-management ## What This Skill Does Turns raw captures into reusable frameworks. Captures are cheap; frameworks are portable IP. Distillation is the process of noticing the signal across the noise — patterns captured ≥3 times become named, documented, ready-to-reuse frameworks. Distillation runs on three cadences: - **Weekly** (lightweight, 15 min of the 30-min review): cluster inbox + new captures by theme; identify emerging patterns - **Monthly** (90 min dedicated session): elevate validated patterns to named frameworks; archive raw captures - **Quarterly** (half-day integration): cross-reference against Genius Profile; propose evolution or net-new frameworks ## Core Principles …

How to install
mdr add frankxai/starlight-intelligence-system/memory/insight-distillation@sha256:0c1bd848985251e3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260505.489390e, 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.
