Capture durable session facts in an OKF knowledge base: corpus-wide dedup, confidentiality routing, conflict reconciliation, provenance, shipping via synthesis-kb-edit. Use at session end, to capture or update knowledge, or to keep corrected facts about people, organizations, products or decisions.
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
# Knowledge Capture A fact learned in a session and not written to the durable knowledge base is a fact lost. This skill is the disciplined path from "the agent now knows X" to "the knowledge base now knows X" — without duplicating, without overwriting a still-true fact, and without leaking a confidential fact into a shared corpus. ## Binding rules Rules 1 to 4 are the skill's four hard merge rules, in their original order. 1. **Scan first, always.** No write without a completed `kb_scan.py` for every entity involved; workflow step 3 is never skipped. 2. **In place, not append.** Correct stable facts where they live; a new concept file is only for a genuinely new unit of knowledge. 3. **Reconcile, never blind-flip.** Classify a contradiction as staleness, a second axis, or ambiguity in the new fact before editing. 4. **No fact without a source.** Every merged claim cites who said it or which tool surfaced it in this session. 5. **If the config is missing, STOP and say so.** Also stop if the target repo lacks `.agents/knowledge-base.yaml` or the two disagree on the bundle path. …

How to install
mdr add synthesisengineering/synthesis-skills/synthesis-knowledge-capture@sha256:ba5986d716589859The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
