Captures an insight or practice discovered during work and registers it in the dotforge practices/inbox.

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

# Capture Practice

Register an insight, pattern, or lesson learned in the dotforge inbox.

## Input routing

**If $ARGUMENTS is empty → auto-detect mode (Step 0).**
**If $ARGUMENTS has content → skip to Step 1.**

---

## Step 0: Auto-detect (only when $ARGUMENTS is empty)

Analyze the recent conversation to identify the most generalizable insight from this session.

### Detection signals (in priority order)

1. **Workaround discovered** — the obvious approach failed and an alternative was used
2. **Multi-attempt bug** — a fix required more than one attempt or root cause was non-obvious
3. **Architectural decision with trade-offs** — two+ alternatives were considered, one chosen with reasoning
4. **Non-obvious tool/API/flag behavior** — a parameter, edge case, or behavior was surprising
5. **Missing rule** — the session revealed a gap in `.claude/rules/` or `CLAUDE.md` that would have prevented the problem

### Extraction rules

- Extract the single most generalizable insight — not session notes, not a summary of everything done
- Formulate it as a reusable principle: "When X, do Y because Z" or "Never do X — use Y instead"
- Keep it to 1-2 sentences max

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add luiseiman/dotforge/capture-practice@sha256:f7ec41100fadd1e7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260405.f2216fd, 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.
