Load project memory from MASTER_CONTEXT.md and keep it updated after substantive work.

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

# Project context

- If `.env` or `MASTER_CONTEXT.md` do not exist, tell the user to run `./scripts/setup.sh`.
- At the **start** of substantive work in this repo, read **MASTER_CONTEXT.md** at the repository root for brand voice, default product, and API learnings. It carries **no prices** — that is deliberate.
- The first time the user asks to generate something and `MASTER_CONTEXT.md` is missing a field that request needs (default product, brand voice), ask for it then — once — and write the answer back so no future session asks again. A setup-only session asks for nothing and reports almost nothing: close with the setup-close template in `AGENTS.md` ("First-time setup" — a status line, "What you can ask for now", the product-photos line) and keep git mechanics and sync details out unless they block an ask. Never write a credit number into it.
- After **significant** changes (new workflows, verified Novoads behaviors, brand updates), append a short **dated** entry to the Changelog section in **MASTER_CONTEXT.md**.
- For Novoads HTTP usage, prompts, and polling, follow **`.cursor/skills/novoads-api/SKILL.md`** and linked **reference.md**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add novoads/agent-skills/.cursor/rules/project-context.mdc@sha256:73f6dbab1c4e9370

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.7d8596e, 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.
