Produce a periodic review of a second-brain vault: what was added, which topics are growing, what contradicts what, which questions are still open, and what is worth reading next. Use this skill whenever the user asks for a weekly or monthly review, asks what changed in their vault, what they have been learning about lately, or what they should look at next, and when a scheduled review task fires. Do NOT use for structural linting, for ingesting sources, or for answering a specific factual…

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

# Review the vault

Capture systems fail at the point where nothing comes back out. A review is the
loop that closes: it turns a week of ingestion into something the owner reads
and acts on, and it is what makes the vault feel alive rather than archival.

## Core rule

A review reports on the vault, not on the agent's activity. Nobody needs to
know how many tool calls ran; they need to know what they now know.

## Workflow

1. **Diff the period.** New and updated pages since the last review, from
   `log.md` and frontmatter dates.
2. **Find the clusters.** Which concepts gained the most links. That is where
   the owner's attention actually went, which is often not where they think it
   went.
3. **Surface contradictions** recorded during the period and still unresolved.
4. **List open questions** from concept and synthesis pages.
5. **Find the neglected.** Pages linked often but thin, or gaps in `index.md`
   that keep getting referenced.
6. **Recommend three things to read or write next**, each tied to a specific
   page.

## Output format

```
## Week of <date>

Added: <n> pages, <n> sources ingested

### Where your attention went
<two or three sentences on the clusters>

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add undefined-ui/second-brain-os/second-brain-review@sha256:da3299a53949d27a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260907.8c47c65, 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.
