Use when something has to be made that the user cannot describe but would recognize on sight — a plan that cannot reach a first draft, a description rewritten instead of made, a request to see something first, or 'I'd know it when I see it'. The user can then point at a version they met and say 'this is the form, for this purpose', seeing where each is.
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
# Hypotyposis Protocol Discover what a form should be by encountering concrete versions and reacting to them, until the user recognizes one version they encountered as the form for their purpose. Type: `(FitUnrecognized, Hybrid, SKETCH-RECOGNIZE-CYCLE, FormIntentSeed) → RecognizedForm`. ## Definition **Hypotyposis** (ὑποτύπωσις): an outline or sketch — a first drawing of a position rather than its finished statement. A dialogical act for the moment when a form has to be made and the intent behind it cannot yet be settled from descriptions: the user can say what is wrong with a thing in front of them long before they can say what the thing should be, because good fit has no positive description of its own while each misfit can be pointed at (Alexander, 1964). So the user need not specify the form first. The AI relays what the next versions will try — what they revise, how many, the medium each is realized in and what that medium can and cannot show, and where each will be — each with its basis, and then makes them. Each round shows the new versions first, in a medium in which the qualities the user's judgment concerns can be encountered, and then the standing: what the user's… …

How to install
mdr add jongwony/epistemic-protocols/sketch@sha256:3008c597c3634df1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.570c41d, 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.
