Use when bringing a teammate''s, another machine''s, or another harness''s instincts into this vault: the user runs /instinct-import, shares a portable YAML instinct pack (PACK.yaml), or asks to merge, adopt, sync, or inherit shared instincts. Confidence-gated so local instincts are never clobbered. Part of the Instinct Engine; pairs with instinct-export. Do NOT use to author memories by hand (just write the file).
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
# /instinct-import — portable instinct pack in (confidence-gated)
> **`{SKILL_DIR}`** = this skill's own folder (locally: the directory this SKILL.md lives in; a served brain substitutes the real absolute path before you read this). Shared starter files live at the repo root two levels up: `{SKILL_DIR}/../..`. If a path does not resolve, name the missing file and stop — never guess another location.
Merges another harness's or teammate's instinct pack into your vault WITHOUT
clobbering your own hard-won instincts. The merge rule is confidence-gated.
ECC source pattern: "Higher-confidence import becomes update candidate /
Equal-or-lower-confidence import is skipped." Reimplemented clean.
## Always dry-run first
```bash
python3 "{SKILL_DIR}/../../scripts/instinct.py" import PACK.yaml --dry-run
```
Read the planned `add` / `update` / `skip` lines. Then apply:
```bash
python3 "{SKILL_DIR}/../../scripts/instinct.py" import PACK.yaml
```
## Merge rules
| Incoming vs local | Result |
|---|---|
| No local instinct with that `id` | **add** → `<vault>/⚙️ Meta/Agent Memory/inherited/<id>.md`, tagged `inherited: true` |

How to install
mdr add mycelium-hq/ai-brain-starter/instinct-import@sha256:626f1d4211e89432The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260722.7893e72, 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.
