Walk thoughts/shared/research/ and thoughts/shared/plans/, score each doc's staleness, regenerate INDEX.md, and append LLM-surfaced contradictions to CONTRADICTIONS.md (append-only). Source docs are never modified. Classification: current (age<90d AND refs valid), needs-review (age>=90d OR broken refs), likely-stale (age>=180d AND no recent activity). Inventory is deterministic; contradiction detection runs one LLM call per cluster (CTL-467 + CTL-468 / Initiative 4 Phase 1+2).
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
# research-curate Regenerates `INDEX.md` inventories for `thoughts/shared/research/` and `thoughts/shared/plans/`, then clusters docs by topic and asks an LLM to identify contradicting claims, appending findings to `CONTRADICTIONS.md`. Source markdown is never modified — only `INDEX.md` (overwritten) and `CONTRADICTIONS.md` (appended) are written. ## What it does 1. **Inventory** — walks each directory, parses frontmatter (`date`, `topic`, `tags`), counts words, extracts file:line references (`file.ext:N` pattern). 2. **Score** — for each doc, computes age, validates ref paths against `HEAD`, and counts last-30d git log hits for the doc's top-3 tags. 3. **Classify**: - `current` — age < 90d AND all refs resolve at HEAD - `needs-review` — age >= 90d OR at least one broken ref - `likely-stale` — age >= 180d AND zero recent topic activity 4. **Generate** — overwrites `<dir>/INDEX.md` with three sections sorted by date descending. Output is fully deterministic. 5. **Cluster + contradict** (CTL-468) — tokenizes `tags` ∪ `topic`, computes pairwise Jaccard similarity, unions docs with score ≥ 0.4 via union-find. …

How to install
mdr add coalesce-labs/catalyst/research-curate@sha256:fd51d8bc3ff5f84fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260606.0995954, 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.
