Use when touching retiring old logic, collapsing duplicate owners, removing fallbacks, or schema/persistence/source-of-truth boundaries; identify opportunities automatically; destructive execution requires explicit confirmation.
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
# Anti-Entropy ## Overview Use this skill when the task is not merely "change code" but "remove old paths safely without growing entropy". This skill chooses between: - `delete-first` for internal code retirement - `compat-exception` for proven external dependency boundaries - `confirmation-first` for irreversible state or an external contract whose distributed consumers cannot be observed It does not replace `brainstorming`, `writing-plans`, `systematic-debugging`, or `verification-before-completion`. It is a narrow governance owner for retirement, fallback collapse, duplicate-owner cleanup, and deletion safety. ## When to Use Use when any of these are true: - old logic, duplicate owners, or stale fallbacks should be retired - a candidate fix is "delete old path" vs "add another fallback" - internal keyword / phrase / trigger logic is being replaced by structured logic - a new canonical owner exists and the old owner may still carry real behavior - a cleanup, migration, or deprecation task touches schema, persistence, source-of-truth, or external compatibility boundaries - the task risks confusing code retirement with live data deletion Do not use for: …

How to install
mdr add ganyuanran/aegis/anti-entropy-governance@sha256:1d2f4d7c2c0c14b9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260927.6d97ed0, 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.
