identedit skillA
identedit is agent-read markdown (skill) from isty2e/identedit: Precision code editing with precondition safety. USE WHEN: multi-file atomic edits, repeated target text, config-path edits, or a previous edit attempt failed or landed in the wrong place. NOT for: trivial one-line fixes, full-file rewrites, file-system renames..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Identedit Use for repeated targets, context-mismatch recovery, config paths, precondition-checked file-boundary insertions, or multiple edits that must commit together. Prefer direct editing for trivial changes and full-file rewrites; use `repren` or `git mv` for bulk text/path renames. ## Find the existing feature **One edit: use `patch`.** Start with the matching row, not the whole manual. Commands below start with `identedit`; text-source and preview flags modify the chosen edit command. | I need to... | Use | Details | |---|---|---| | Inspect one symbol and nearby code, with edit-ready addresses | `read file --symbol Class.method --context 3` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) | | Replace a function by name, without looking up an identity | `patch file --symbol Class.method --replace --text-file body.txt` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) | | Change text only inside one function/class | `patch file --symbol name --scoped-regex 'old' --scoped-replacement 'new'` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) | | Edit an exact line/range among repeated text | `read --mode line file`, then `patch file --at "LINE:HASH"` | [Lines](#exact-line-or-range) | …

How to install
mdr add isty2e/identedit/identedit@git:20260923.4c0d21bmdr add isty2e/identedit/identedit@sha256:d14a93697d88af18Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
