Use ripwire CLI to map a repo before reading it.
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
# ripwire — deterministic repo map before reading code `ripwire` (v0.4.x at authoring time; the release binary must be on PATH) is a zero-dependency C++23 CLI that builds a ranked, deterministic call graph of any repo in ~1s (parses once, then auto-caches warm). It answers "what to touch, what it breaks, which tests to run" for a fraction of the tokens of grep + whole-file reads. No API key, no daemon, no index server, offline. Invoke it via the terminal tool. ## When to reach for it (instead of blind grep / whole-file reads) - Landing cold in a repo or subsystem — "what's here, how is it organized, what matters" - "Where is the code for X" — a task, feature, or concept in your own words - A change is proposed — what breaks, who calls it, which tests must run - Resuming work after compaction / a new session on in-flight work - Reviewing code you did not write (fresh eyes), or pre-commit change vetting Do NOT use for trivial single-file lookups (plain `rg`/search_files wins) or broad common-word questions — ripwire shines on specific technical asks. ## Core verbs (all take a repo dir; `--help` is authoritative) ```bash …

How to install
mdr add redhat-et/ripwire/ripwire-repo-map@sha256:8cf0cd98832ac0d9The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
