Summarize the currently staged Git changes as a human-readable, intent-grouped narrative. Use when the user wants a concise and brief report of what changed and why. Optionally can check the diff for intent coherence and show a risk and blast radius report.
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.

<objective>
Summarize the currently staged Git changes into a *concise*,
*human-readable* narrative of what changed and why, *grouped by intent*
rather than by file. Optionally *reconstruct the change's single
intended purpose* and *flag hunks that do not serve it*. Optionally
*score* the diff against a *coupling-criticality-coverage-reversibility*
rubric and emit a *graded risk report* with *mitigations*. Optionally
render a *blast-radius map*.
</objective>
Procedure
---------
<flow>
1. <step id="STEP 1: Determine Change Set">
1. Determine the *diff details* by running the corresponding command
(taken exactly as given) and capturing the full diff output into
<diff/> for the subsequent analysis:
`git diff --cached`
2. Determine the *diff statistics* by running the corresponding command
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add rse/ase/ase-repo-diff@sha256:ea6874b5eadcc87fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.9b9ee44, 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.
