Runs the 9-pass ingestion protocol against a single source dropped in {corpus-root}/sources/ingest/, producing a .source.md sidecar, the converted markdown, a deep reference, a light reference, one distillation per applicable task axis, and index and image updates. On success, the input source is removed from sources/ingest/.

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

# Ingesting Resources

Promotes a source from `{corpus-root}/sources/ingest/` (staging) to `{corpus-root}/sources/original/` (audited) by running the 9-pass protocol against it.

Each successful invocation produces, all inside the active corpus:

- One sidecar at `sources/original/{slug}.source.md` with frontmatter (title, author, URL, scope, licence, ingested, original_format, checksum_sha256).
- Converted markdown at `sources/converted/{slug}.md` (the "tape" Pass C read).
- One deep reference at `references/{slug}-deep.md`.
- One light reference at `references/{slug}.md`.
- One distillation per *applicable* task axis at `distillations/{task}/{slug}-{task}.md`. The protocol forms an opinion about applicability and asks the operator to confirm borderline cases.
- Updates to the runtime JSON indexes (`references/slug-table.json`, `reference-index.json`, `concept-index.json`, per-task `distillations/{task}/task-index.json`) and the operator-inspection `.md` views alongside.
- Substantive images extracted and indexed in `{corpus-root}/sources/converted/IMAGE-INDEX.yaml`.
- An ingestion summary.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add chrisgagne/grounded-forge/ingesting-resources@sha256:4925bc7be8c9bf2a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.bf35f08, 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.
