Rename a page safely: update the file, fix every inbound wikilink, add the old name as an alias, and log it. Use this skill whenever a page needs a different canonical title, the user says "rename X to Y", asks to fix an inconsistent title, or after a lint run flags naming problems. Do NOT use for merging two pages, for moving a page between folders without a name change, or for renaming files outside the wiki.
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
# Rename a page An agent renaming a file directly is the single most common source of broken links in an agent-maintained vault. Obsidian fixes links when you rename inside the app; writing the file directly does not. ## Core rule A rename is four operations, not one. All four, or none. ## Workflow 1. **Check the new name** against existing pages and aliases. A rename that collides with an existing alias creates ambiguity the graph cannot resolve. 2. **Rename the file** and update the `title` in frontmatter. 3. **Add the old title to `aliases`.** This keeps external references, the user's memory, and any link you miss working. 4. **Update every inbound link.** Search the whole vault, including `index.md`. 5. **Log it:** old name, new name, links updated. 6. **Verify** with a link check. ## Output format ``` Renamed: [[old]] -> [[new]] Inbound links updated: <n> across <n> pages Alias added: <old> Remaining references: <none | list> ``` ## Calibration Do not rename to fix a style preference on a page with many inbound links. The cost is real and the benefit is cosmetic. If the correct name is genuinely ambiguous, ask rather than picking. A second …

How to install
mdr add undefined-ui/second-brain-os/second-brain-rename@sha256:4515f7c1bf1c577aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260908.1615b29, 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.
