Use when the user signals they want to understand something already in play — a result, a document, a file, work done for them — that they cannot follow yet or nod along to unsure; not for an unrelated question or an account that already shows understanding. The user can then say their understanding serves their purpose, on a map checked with them.

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

# Katalepsis Protocol

Achieve certain comprehension of a target in play — code, a document, a result — through structured verification, enabling the user to grasp what stands ungrasped. Type: `(TargetUngrasped, User, VERIFY, Target) → VerifiedUnderstanding`.

## Definition

**Katalepsis** (κατάληψις): A dialogical act of achieving firm comprehension—from Stoic philosophy meaning "a grasping firmly"—resolving an ungrasped target into verified user understanding through a map of understanding built with the person and checked against the target's material and the results looked at together.

How to read this block. It is core Lean 4 and elaborates as written, and you are the model it is
written for: you read it, and by inference over the context you settle each element it leaves
open. Every `axiom` is one of those judgments — a black box to the contract, yours to make from
the material in front of you; its doc comment says what you judge there, and nothing in this
block decides it for you. Every `def`, `inductive`, and `structure` is fixed by the contract.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jongwony/epistemic-protocols/grasp@sha256:7b2d833feebba14b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.570c41d, 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.
