Personal knowledge base manager. Processes inbox files (PDF, MD, DOCX, RTF, TXT, HTML, PNG, URL), extracts metadata, renames with citation conventions, generates summaries, maintains a generated searchable index, answers questions grounded in indexed sources, performs full-text keyword search, reports corpus health, moves pipeline output into topic folders, and builds slide decks from indexed or external content through the slides-content and beamer skills. Triggers on "kb", "knowledge base…

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

# Knowledge Base Manager

## Knowledge Base Location

**Edit the path on the line below to match where your knowledge base lives.** That line is the single place the root is configured; this skill reads no environment variable for it, and there is nothing else to set.

```
~/knowledge-base/
```

Written as `<knowledge-base-root>` where a placeholder reads more clearly. All paths in this skill are relative to this root unless otherwise specified.

**The only deletion this skill performs is the split folder that Mode 1 Step 4a removes.** The `rm` entry in `allowed-tools` is scoped to exactly that path shape (`*_build/split_*`) and grants nothing broader; every other cleanup is a `mv`.

## Directory Structure

The knowledge base supports two document storage patterns:

### Pattern A: Per-document subfolder (default for all filing)

Every filed document gets its own subfolder containing the source, text extraction, summary, and any slides or build artifacts. This is the default for inbox processing (Mode 1), `kb move` (Mode 3), and the content-skill pipelines that write into the knowledge base.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add ai-business-tools/claude-code/knowledge-base@sha256:d8e1ea247895cd37

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260830.80a4dcd, 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.
