Use when departing knowledge must enter project topic files through a narration-first interview. Not for remote, credential, publish, deploy, or irreversible changes.
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
# Keep why interview ## Contract | Field | Bound contract | |---|---| | Trigger | Maintainer knowledge is about to become unavailable (leaving, retiring, team change) or user requests a knowledge-transfer interview. | | Authority | Reversible local: writes only synthesized topic-file entries; rollback is version control. No remote mutation. No session narrative, no personal details, no verbatim transcription of raw material. | | Side effect | Synthesized topic-file entries written to local project knowledge file(s) with Source = interview; entries are self-contained without private context. | | Done | All code-unexplainable gaps either answered or explicitly marked OPEN; tacit-knowledge subjects get narration-first flow; entries self-contained without private context; no invented rationale. | ## Inputs - Required: A human subject (departing maintainer or domain expert), a location for topic-file entries (project memory/knowledge file or directory), and the interview's topic scope. - Optional: Existing topic file(s) to append to or extend. - Required: The interview must be a live conversation; the model leads the conversation and captures synthesized knowledge in real time. …

How to install
mdr add outlinedriven/odin-claude-plugin/keep-why-interview@sha256:3059c9ac9b81dde8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.6e06ed3, 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.
