Turn what was just worked out into a GreyMatter note — filed in the right zone, linked to what it relates to, indexed. Use when the user says "remember this", "save that", "note it down", "distill this session", or when a non-obvious problem has just been solved and the reasoning would otherwise be lost.
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
# Distill into a note A session ends and its reasoning goes with it unless something is written down. This writes it down, in the shape the trunk expects. ## What deserves a note Only what a future reader could not re-derive cheaply: - a defect and **how it was found**, not just the fix; - a decision, its alternatives, and why they lost; - a constraint that is not visible in the code. Not: what the repository already records, what only matters to this conversation, or a summary of work anyone could read from the diff. ## Shape One fact per file, in `~/.greymatter/trunk/<zone>/<slug>.md` where zone is `lessons` (cross-project), `projects/<name>`, `meta` (ways of working) or `life`. ```markdown --- name: <short-kebab-case-slug> description: <one line — this is what recall ranks on, so make it say the fact> metadata: type: reference --- <the fact, stated so it is useful without this conversation> Why: <what makes it non-obvious> How to apply: <the reflex it should produce next time> ``` Link related notes with `[[their-slug]]`. Link generously — a link to a note that does not exist yet marks something worth writing, not an error. ## Then …

How to install
mdr add yuno15-bb/greymatter-engine/distill@sha256:c042c8893b8144aaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260927.31ac526, 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.
