Clear a product/brand name BEFORE buying a domain or branding anything. Runs same-industry collision, trademark signal, domain availability, and distinctiveness checks. Returns RED/YELLOW/GREEN verdicts with evidence. Use whenever a new product is being named, a domain is about to be bought, or a user proposes a name.
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
# name-clearance
> **Why this exists (the Patently lesson).** A product was named "Patently" and the
> domain `patently.legal` was bought — *then* we found `patently.com`: an 8-year-old,
> 1,500-user AI **patent** platform run by patent litigators. Identical name, identical
> field. The domain was available; the **name** was a landmine. A free domain proves
> nothing. **Clear the name, not the domain.**
## When you activate
- A new product is being named (ideate → scaffold).
- **Before** any domain purchase — this is a hard gate in the go-live flow.
- A user proposes a brand name ("let's call it X").
- A rename is being considered.
## What you produce
For each candidate, a verdict with evidence:
- 🟢 **GREEN** — no same-field collision, distinctive/arbitrary mark, domain obtainable. Safe to advance to a formal attorney knockout.
- 🟡 **YELLOW** — clear in-field but flags exist (crowded prefix, famous-brand crowding/SEO, common word, brand in an adjacent industry). Usable with caution + formal TM search.
- 🔴 **RED** — same/adjacent-industry collision, registered/strong common-law mark, or descriptive-and-taken. Kill it.

How to install
mdr add hamza-ali-shahjahan/hamzaish/name-clearance@sha256:b20ed7b1f204e87fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260620.a041dac, 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.
