Maintains project state in a markdown vault: a single decision card carrying decisions, questions, risks, contradictions as status-based positions (open/proposed/accepted). Governs working tracks as the mandatory container for work. Use after meetings, decisions; inbox/outbox; vault init, migration.

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

# Project Vault — Local Practices Framework (LPF)

LPF for the practice "managing project state in a markdown-vault". Users:
the owner (name — in the repo root `AGENTS.md`) + an AI assistant.

## When to load which pattern

| Situation | Load |
|---|---|
| Understand the vault schema: entities, directories, ID allocation, discovery | `references/PV.VaultSchema.md` |
| Process the inbox (transcripts, PDFs, articles, research) | `references/PV.Inbox.md` |
| Update state from a meeting transcript / dialog news (DEC card, open/proposed/accepted) | `references/PV.StateUpdate.md` |
| Bind an external study/article/report two-way | `references/PV.ExternalResearch.md` |
| Manage tracks / continue work in a track | `references/PV.Track.md` |
| Create a track-bound artifact | `references/PV.Artifact.md` |
| Record a substantive step (WRK) | `references/PV.WorkRecord.md` |
| Initialize a new vault (scaffold copy, inbox/outbox creation) | `references/PV.Init.md` |
| Migrate an old vault (retire legacy kinds / directories into DEC card + artifacts) | `references/PV.Migration.md` |
| Send outgoing feedback/a proposal to another system or skill | `references/PV.Outbox.md` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dimonier/skills/project-vault@sha256:ae3836ef50bee323

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.af2c5e7, 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.
