Maintain the project's shared vocabulary in CONTEXT.md — challenge conflicting terms, sharpen fuzzy language, record resolutions inline. Use when a term being settled with the user conflicts with the glossary or means two things, when a decision names a new project concept that later work will need a word for, or when another skill needs the glossary discipline. Reading CONTEXT.md to use its vocabulary is not this skill, and an ordinary request that uses a term is not an invitation to start a…

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

# Domain Glossary

One shared language between the user, the agent and the code — Domain-Driven Design's *ubiquitous language* — living in `CONTEXT.md` at the repo root: a glossary and nothing else. A term sharpened during one piece of work serves every later one: shorter conversations, consistent naming in code and tests. Left alone, each conversation coins its own word for the same thing, the code ends up naming one concept three ways, and a term settled once is fought over again by a session that never saw the fight.

The concept: **one concept, one word — written into the glossary the moment it is settled.**

## Format

```markdown
# {Project Name}

{One or two sentences on what this project is.}

## Language

**customer**:
{One or two sentences. What it IS, not what it does.}
Killed: *client*, *buyer* — one concept, one word.

**archive**:
Soft-hide; the user can restore it. Settled against permanent deletion in the
exports work — restorability is a support contract.
Killed: *trash*, *delete* — each carried both meanings at once.
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add donald-ada/workinggenius/domain-glossary@sha256:2c8aab9dea608486

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.8d07e01, 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.
