Memory washer/defragmenter for agent memory — two lanes: class-B (memory+governance) cleans the FAT, never the MEAT; class-A (transcripts) is byte-identity-only. Fidelity-first: a free mechanical Quick pass + a CODE gate blocking any STRUCTURED-token drop by diff; the paid Full pass is a separate consent; every DELETE/MERGE is plan-sourced + snapshot-backed. Session-start gauge; Fat hysteresis arms OBESE (auto-Quick, standing config, never asks). FULL = the economic cut-point…

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

# CoalWash
Background for the sections above: see the end of this file

> **Fidelity scope — CLASS-B wash tiers only** (class-A estate = the byte-identity contract two notes down): the gate PROVES every STRUCTURED token that went in came out (the classes at step 3) by mechanical diff; it CANNOT SEE survivors trading places (`pass 878/fail 0` → `pass 0/fail 878` passes it) — re-pairing + load-bearing **prose** facts are the semantic reviewers' + YOUR job, never the gate's. Deletes ride the adjudicated plan, not a separate approval; safety is the transactional apply (snapshot → whole-run rollback; a rollback whose own restore fails reports **partial**, never a silent mixed state). CoalWash **slows** memory-overhead growth — it does not eliminate it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thecolliery/coalwash/coalwash@sha256:32c6d5ed249362cc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.f7d3eb9, 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.
