Apply Tiago Forte's PARA method (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives) as canonically defined to any store: a file system, cloud drive, notes app or Obsidian vault, or a markdown knowledge base that agents read and write. Use to classify items by actionability, decide project vs area vs resource vs archive, set up or audit a PARA structure, plan a reorganization or migration, run a weekly or monthly PARA review, or design agent memory on PARA without rot. Triggers: 'PARA', 'is this a project…
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
# PARA PARA sorts information by how actionable it is right now, not by what kind of thing it is or where it came from. Four buckets, most to least actionable: | Bucket | Is | Test | |---|---|---| | Projects | an outcome with a goal and a deadline or timeframe, being worked on now | can it be finished, and is something happening on it this week or month? | | Areas | an ongoing responsibility with a standard to maintain, no end date | would something suffer if it were neglected? | | Resources | a topic of interest or reference, no responsibility attached | useful to look up or share, but nothing breaks if ignored | | Archives | anything inactive from the other three | done, dropped, handed off, or no longer interesting | An inbox sits in front of the four. It holds capture, in time order, until a review files it. Calendars, email, chat and ticket trackers are chronological by nature and are never reorganized by PARA; PARA pages link to them. Read `references/classification.md` before classifying anything non-obvious. Read `references/stores.md` before setting PARA up on a specific store. ## Hard rules …

How to install
mdr add vanducng/skills/para@sha256:b3cd98309b437fcdThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
