Resolve uncertain person or organization identities across aliases, duplicate records, conflicting sources, incomplete identifiers, or competing profile and media candidates. Use when reliable matching requires contextual corroboration, candidate discovery, historical reconciliation, or explicit ambiguity handling. Do not use for straightforward joins on established identifiers or ordinary photo, image, and metadata tasks without an identity-resolution problem.
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
# Smart Entity Resolution Resolve identities at the lowest level of effort that establishes a reliable answer. Escalate only when existing identifiers, mappings, or corroborating evidence are insufficient. This skill applies to genuinely ambiguous person and organization records, including competing profile or media candidates; ordinary image handling and deterministic ID joins do not require it. ## Core Principle Treat entity resolution as a staged investigation, not a lookup. Exact search, slug lookup, popularity, and LLM judgment are all useful signals, but none should silently dominate the others. Separate three questions: - Coverage: did we enumerate all requested entities? - Identity: does this candidate represent the requested person or organization? - Utility: is this the best usable record for the task? A high-utility record with weak identity evidence is a false-positive risk. Identity outranks popularity, profile completeness, image availability, and search ranking. ## Resolution Levels Choose the lowest sufficient level; a higher level is not a mandatory prerequisite. …

How to install
mdr add swyxio/skills/smart-entity-resolution@sha256:2acc4e09ed3f0f2dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.ea73b63, 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.
