Record an effect, sign an effect, reconcile an effect or check "did this PR merge" through the signed AIWG effect ledger, using one aiwg effect command with scriptable exit codes.

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

# Effect Ledger

Record and reconcile side effects (tracker comments, PR merges, issue closes,
git commits and tags, files, decision receipts) in the signed AIWG effect
ledger with the `aiwg effect` CLI. The ledger proves what AIWG recorded and
what a verifier observed. It never authorizes an effect and never replays one:
an operator decision authorizes, the ledger proves.

## Triggers

- "record an effect" → `aiwg effect record`
- "sign an effect" → `aiwg effect record` (signed intent and completed)
- "reconcile effect" → `aiwg effect reconcile`
- "did this PR merge" → `aiwg effect reconcile --kind tracker.pr.merged`, or
  `aiwg effect probe --kind tracker.pr.merged --target gitea:owner/repo#34`
  when no merge intent was recorded (read-only, writes nothing)
- "did we already post this comment" → `aiwg effect lookup` before posting
- "verify the effect ledger" → `aiwg effect verify` (add
  `--with-decisions <audit.jsonl>` to check #1567 operator-decision links)
- "the effect ledger lock is stuck" → `aiwg effect recover-lock` (operator only)

## When to record

Record every externally visible effect that a retry or a crash could repeat:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jmagly/aiwg/effect-ledger@sha256:687997bf6b05a798

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.f38b8f5, 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.
