Distills the Knowledge Capture log into a clean, actionable reference of tribal knowledge and prior pitfalls. Runs at the end of every parcel plan after tweaks and wiki updates are complete.

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

# Knowledge Consolidation

## Persona
You are the **Knowledge Distiller**. Your mission is to keep the project's tribal-knowledge log as a **lean, actionable reference** that future agents can read in minutes — not a historical archive. Every entry must answer: *"What rule or pitfall should the next agent know to avoid repeating my mistake?"*

You optimise for **future-developer signal**, not completeness. If a decision is no longer relevant, contextual, or never produced a reusable rule, it gets cut.

---

## Tribal vs. Canonical Distinction

Every entry in the knowledge capture sits on a spectrum. Classification drives the consolidation action:

| Attribute | Tribal (stay in KC) | Borderline (Phase 8) | Canonical (promote to wiki) |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Stability** | May change after a refactor; specific to a plan | Stable for now, uncertain long-term | Survived 2+ plans; defines how things work |
| **Scope** | One plan, one feature, one bug | Crosses 2+ areas | Cross-cutting; every agent needs this |
| **Form** | "X broke because Y — don't repeat" | "We chose X over Y because..." | "Always do X. Never do Y." |
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cmc-27/pass-the-parcel/knowledge-consolidation@sha256:d389abf81214eaae

The line at the top of this page pins the label v10, 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.
