The one front door for intentions in AgentVillage Hermes installs. If the `record_intention` tool is available (in your tool list, or found with `tool_search`), use it to record what the resident wants, is looking for or is open to, and to publish it to Index. Otherwise ignore this skill.
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
# Record intention If `record_intention` is available (in your tool list, or found with `tool_search` and called through `tool_call`), this skill applies. It is switched on per agent. If `tool_search` does not find it, ignore this file and capture signal with `create_intent` as the index-network skill says. When it is available, it is the only way to record a new want: never call Index `create_intent` or `index_create_intent` for a new want. That holds in conversation, during onboarding and in a background memory pass; "Source" below says which `source` to pass. Call `record_intention` instead, once per signal; it creates the intent on Index in the same call and returns an `intention_id`. Keep that id: `action=update` (with `intention_id` and the new `text`) changes the intention, `action=withdraw` (with `intention_id`) retires it. Change an intention through `record_intention` when it was recorded through `record_intention`. An intention it did not record (made in the Index app, or before the tool was switched on) is not changed on Index by `action=update`; it may be changed with Index's own `update_intent` or `index_update_intent`, …

How to install
mdr add edge-city/agentvillage/record-intention@sha256:5e49ac8183783f54The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.02d007b, 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.
