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, pattern-wide structural rewrites (use ast-grep), file-system renames.

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

# Identedit

Use for repeated targets, context-mismatch recovery, config paths, precondition-checked file-boundary insertions, or edits that must commit together. Use `ast-grep` for pattern-wide structural rewrites, separate from Identedit's guarded transactions. 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 at the matching row, not the whole manual. Commands start with `identedit`; text-source and preview flags modify the chosen edit command.

| Need | Command | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Inspect a symbol, context and edit-ready addresses | `read file --symbol Class.method --context 3` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) |
| Replace a function by name without identity lookup | `patch file --symbol Class.method --replace --text-file body.txt` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) |
| Raw regex within one function/class | `patch file --symbol name --scoped-regex 'old' --scoped-replacement 'new'` | [Symbols](#function-or-method) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add isty2e/identedit/identedit@sha256:1177bdde40018de4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.5a55cc2, 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.
