Set, change, or decline the user/assistant names that memory-loop injects at session start. Use when the user wants to set up names, rename either party, ask the assistant to pick its own name, or stop the name-setup offer from appearing.

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

# memory-loop: identity

Names live in one local file the SessionStart hook reads:

```
~/.claude/groundwork/memory-loop/identity.json
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "userName": "Sam",
  "assistantName": "Iris",
  "chosenBy": "user",
  "status": "set"
}
```

- `chosenBy`: `"user"` (the user named the assistant) or `"assistant"` (the
  assistant chose its own name). When it is `"assistant"`, the hook adds
  "You chose this name yourself." to the injected context.
- `status`: `"set"` or `"declined"`.

## Set

1. Ask what the user would like to be called.
2. For the assistant's name, offer both paths and let the user pick the *path*:
   - the user names the assistant → record `chosenBy: "user"`;
   - the assistant chooses its own name and explains why it chose it →
     record `chosenBy: "assistant"`. Choose something you actually mean —
     this name persists across sessions.
3. Confirm both names with the user **before** writing anything.
4. Write the file (create the directory first):
   ```bash
   mkdir -p ~/.claude/groundwork/memory-loop
   ```
   then write the JSON above with the confirmed values and `status: "set"`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add choiyounggi/groundwork/identity@sha256:2cc56f246f045706

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260714.636a4cc, 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.
