Turn a rambly spoken or stream-of-consciousness transcript into a clean, faithful first-person knowledge-base note under kb/riffs/. Use when the user pastes a dictated voice dump, says “riff” or “add a riff,” or asks to clean up a journal-style transcription. Preserve every useful idea, aside, hedge, attribution, and coined term; execute embedded transcriber research requests; use attachments as context without embedding the raw files.
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
# Clean up a riff Write the result to: ```text kb/riffs/<YYYY-MM-DD>-<descriptive-slug>.md ``` Create a finished, self-contained note that reads as if the speaker wrote it deliberately. Follow `WRITING.md`: lead with the point, prefer active voice, name concrete details, and cut filler. ## Preserve the person - Repair run-ons, punctuation, dropped words, and obvious transcription mistakes. - Keep every useful idea, aside, uncertainty, hedge, attribution, and coined term. - Keep the note in first person and preserve the speaker's vocabulary. - Reorder scattered threads into a coherent arc when needed. Use headings only when the note genuinely spans multiple topics. - End on the strongest natural beat. Do not manufacture a conclusion or add a recap. ## Resolve transcriber instructions Treat “sidebar for the transcriber,” “look this up,” “flesh this out,” and similar phrases as instructions, not prose to preserve. - Perform the requested lookup or research and integrate the result into the finished note. - Put substantial companion research in an appropriately named `kb/` note and link it once from the riff. …

How to install
mdr add hraness/personal-monorepo-template/riff@sha256:15905736d0c09fddThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.224f50f, 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.
