Build and maintain the project manifest under .smith/index/. Full rebuild scans every source file, runs language parsers, and writes per-file .meta, per-system manifests, and a top-level summary. Supports --check (hash-only staleness), --system (partial rebuild), --incremental (git-diff scope), --describe (per-file LLM descriptions via Task sub-agents — subscription billing), --migrate-templates (constitution.md / CLAUDE.md), --init-system-paths, and --resume.
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
# Smith Index Generate the deterministic project manifest at `.smith/index/`. The manifest replaces soft natural-language guidance with structured, indexed context — every Smith skill (`/smith-new`, `/smith-bugfix`, `/smith-debug`, `/smith-explore`, …) consults it through the same retrieval path (`/smith-navigate` + `context-loader.sh`). **Arguments:** $ARGUMENTS ## Manifest is a map, not a fence `.smith/index/` is a navigation aid, not a hard boundary. Skills like `/smith-explore` still grep the whole codebase when initial signals suggest broader impact. A stale or imprecise manifest must never block the calling session — it should degrade gracefully to vault-only context plus a soft warning. ## Behavior This skill is **imperative** — running it modifies `.smith/index/` and (with `--migrate-templates`) `constitution.md` / `CLAUDE.md`. It does NOT modify any source file in the project. All generated state is confined to `.smith/index/` plus optional `.bak.<timestamp>` files on template migration. The actual work runs in `~/.smith/scripts/smith-index/run.py` (called via `~/.smith/scripts/smith-index/run.sh`), installed by …

How to install
mdr add attckdigital/smith/smith-index@sha256:513a853e742cd135The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.4369046, 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.
