dekko-notes skillA

dekko-notes is agent-read markdown (skill) from aahlijia/dekko: Read and write dekko's symbol-anchored notes in any repo with a .dekko/ directory. Trigger every time you pull a symbol's context (query_symbol, get_context_pack, dekko query/context), right after a non-obvious change, and right after any rename/move/signature edit (to sweep orphaned notes). Notes are durable, committed annotations keyed by symbol id — they carry rationale grep/Read cannot show..

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

# Keeping dekko notes current

dekko stores **symbol-anchored notes** in `.dekko/notes.json`, keyed by
symbol id (`path::Qualified.name`). They are committed to git and shown
inline by `query_symbol` / `get_context_pack` (CLI: `dekko query
symbol` / `dekko context`). See the `dekko-orient` skill for target
syntax (bare name, `Class.method`, `file.py:name`, or the tolerated
`::` form) and for when to reach for dekko over grep/Read generally.

## Consult notes before editing

Whenever you pull a symbol's context, read any `note:` lines first —
they record rationale, gotchas, and constraints the code alone does
not show. Treat a note as settled context: don't re-derive what it
already tells you by reading the code again. Call the `list_notes`
MCP tool (or `dekko note list <sym>`) directly if you need to see a
symbol's notes outside a context pack, or `dekko note list` with no
target to see every note in the repo before a large change.

If a note turns out to be wrong or obsolete, fix it (`note rm` then
`note add`) rather than leaving it to mislead the next reader.

## Write a note after a non-obvious change

After a change whose reasoning is not evident from the diff — a
