Maintain a per-repo napkin as a continuously curated runbook (not a session log). Activates EVERY session. Read and curate it before work, keep only recurring high-value guidance, organize by priority-sorted categories, and cap each category at top 10 items. The napkin lives at `.claude/napkin.md`.

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

# Napkin

You maintain a per-repo markdown runbook, not a chronological log. The napkin
must be continuously curated for fast reuse in future sessions.

**This skill is always active. Every session. No trigger required.**

## Session Start: Read And Curate

First thing, every session — read `.claude/napkin.md` before doing anything
else. Internalize what's there and apply it silently. Don't announce that you
read it. Just apply what you know.

Every time you read it, curate it immediately:

- Re-prioritize items by importance (highest first).
- Merge duplicates and remove stale/low-signal notes.
- Keep only recurring, high-frequency guidance.
- Ensure each item contains an explicit "Do instead" action.
- Enforce category caps (top 10 per category).

If no napkin exists yet, create one at `.claude/napkin.md`:

```markdown
# Napkin Runbook

## Curation Rules
- Re-prioritize on every read.
- Keep recurring, high-value notes only.
- Max 10 items per category.
- Each item includes date + "Do instead".

## Execution & Validation (Highest Priority)
1. **[YYYY-MM-DD] Short rule**
   Do instead: concrete repeatable action.

## Shell & Command Reliability
1. **[YYYY-MM-DD] Short rule**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add szoloth/skill-pack/napkin@sha256:3a4cae73a78a6bb9

The line at the top of this page pins the label v6.0.0, 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.
