Use when Git reports conflicts during a merge, a rebase, or a cherry-pick. Also use it when the user says "fix the merge conflicts", "rebase onto main", or "the merge broke the build". Traces each side of a conflict to the change that it came from. Keeps both intents when they fit together, and asks when they do not. Then runs the checks on the combined result. Not for choosing what a new behavior should be (use `choose-by-consequence`).

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

# Resolve Conflicts by Intent

## Use when

A merge, a rebase, or a cherry-pick stops with conflicted files. Each side of a conflict carries an intent. A correct resolution keeps each intent that still applies.

## Gates

1. For each conflicted file, can you name the commit and the intent behind each side?
2. Does the resolution keep both intents when they fit together?
3. When the intents do not fit together, did you ask the user instead of picking one?
4. Did you check related names and code outside the conflict markers?
5. Do the checks pass on the combined result, and did you separate failures that were already on a parent?
6. Are all conflict markers gone, with no file left unmerged?

## Process

1. Read the operation in progress, the conflicted paths, and the commits on each side.
2. For each side, read the commit message, the tests, and the design notes that explain it.
3. Resolve each conflict in the current design. Keep the compatible parts of both sides.
4. Search the rest of the code for names and assumptions that either side changed.
5. Run the focused checks and the required merge check.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add theonly1me/shadowclone/resolve-conflicts-by-intent@sha256:977fb045e1425a87

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.95ca1ef, 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.
