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

> **DEPRECATED** — Modern Claude models condense and summarize technical documentation
> natively with comparable quality. The output format preferences encoded here (40% length
> cap, tables over prose, paths first) are too generic to justify skill overhead. Retained
> for archival reference only.

# Document Condenser

Transform verbose technical documentation into concise, developer-focused specs.

## Core Principles

1. **Paths first** - Every file reference includes full/relative path
2. **Tables over prose** - Use tables for metrics, coverage, file lists
3. **Code samples stay** - Keep small, illustrative snippets; remove verbose examples
4. **Commentary, not explanation** - Brief context sentences, not paragraphs
5. **One-line history** - Reference legacy docs, don't preserve their content

## Output Structure

```markdown
# [path/to/output.md]

# [Title] - [Subtitle if needed]

## Purpose

[2-3 sentences: what this is, why it exists, key design principle]

## Status

[Table: metrics, rates, performance]

## Architecture Overview

[Optional diagram or brief flow description]
[Only if it aids understanding]

## Implementation Files
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mathews-tom/armory/doc-condenser@sha256:2e434abd282f1891

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.1, 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.
