Daily knowledge quality audit and inter-agent coordination. Fact-checks memory files, fills knowledge gaps, cleans up quality issues, and routes findings to other agents via an inbox system. Triggers on: knowledge audit, fact check memory, clean up memory, archivist run, inbox check, memory quality.

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.

# Daily Archivist

Audit knowledge quality. Fix what's safe. Flag what's not. Route findings to the right agent.

Inspired by the "daily-archivist" pattern: a scheduled agent that vets all knowledge files, fact-checks claims, fills gaps, cleans up quality — and leaves notes for other agents when it finds issues they should handle.

## What It Does

1. **Fact-check** — Verify claims in memory files against actual state (file counts, project status, config values)
2. **Gap-fill** — Find undocumented decisions, orphan references, missing rationale
3. **Clean up** — Fix formatting, remove duplicates, merge overlapping entries, archive stale content
4. **Route findings** — Leave notes in `memory/inbox/<agent>.md` for the appropriate agent
5. **Bug hunt** — Spot broken references, missing files, config drift, stale data

## Setup

### 1. Create the inbox directory

```bash
mkdir -p memory/inbox
# Create inbox files for each agent in your team
for agent in main coder reviewer researcher; do

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add suryast/free-ai-agent-skills/daily-archivist@sha256:03dd2848a90e2ed2

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
