Post-install setup for the research plugin. Run once after installing on a new machine, or after a plugin version upgrade, to deliver this plugin's rules/*.md into ~/.claude/rules/ as namespaced symlinks and merge its own permissions.allow and permissions.deny entries into ~/.claude/settings.json. TRIGGER when: user installed or upgraded the research plugin and its rules are not loading, or its deny rules are not blocking; phrases: 'set up research', 'research rules not loading', 'merge…
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
<objective>
Deliver research's rules to Claude's user-level rule namespace, and its own permission rules to Claude's settings.
| Action | What happens |
| -- | -- |
| `rules/*.md` → `~/.claude/rules/research-<name>.md` | symlink |
| Stale link from an older research version | refreshed silently |
| Link whose source left the plugin | removed |
| Real file or foreign link at a destination | preserved, reported as conflict |
| Anything outside `~/.claude/rules/` | never touched |
| `.claude-plugin/permissions-{allow,deny}.json` → `~/.claude/settings.json` | merged additively except for the exact shipped retired allow entries |
| Any other key of `~/.claude/settings.json` | never touched |
**Why namespaced?** Claude loads user rules from one flat directory. Four plugins ship a `rules/quality-gates.md`; installing source basenames would collide. Every rule installs as `<plugin>-<source-name>.md`, so `quality-gates.md` becomes `research-quality-gates.md`. The prefix is inert — verified against Claude Code 2.1.220 that a filename prefix changes neither unconditional loading nor `paths:` frontmatter matching.

How to install
mdr add borda/ai-rig/setup@sha256:a72361c02811d1fbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.2278c0c, 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.
